In an effort to save some money on my wife’s maternity pictures I thought I would use our new camera and try my hand at taking them myself. Turns out I’m not half bad at photography (or photoshop) I was so happy with the results that I have decided to start downsizing my logo and design work and start making more room for this new passion. And so “Crystal Clear Photography” is officially born. If you need maternity pictures, wedding pictures, baby pictures, graduation pictures, whatever. Crystal Clear Photography can help. Stay tuned here as I will begin showing you what my new website will look like in the coming days.

UPDATE: Yeah, not really, this was just an April Fools joke. While I did take this photo and I do think it came out good. There’s no way I have any interest in starting a photography business.

For the past month I’ve been working with a friend on a game for the iphone called iLectric Football. Remember those old school vibrating football games? Check out the video below if you need a refresher. We are about 50% done with it as of today, maybe further. Now that I’m wrapping up the in game stuff I’ve been working on. ie: textures, logos, interface, etc. Its time to ramp up with the advertising stuff. So here is the first piece I want to show you. Elements of this design will be used on things such as the website and app store page. It was fun doing an old style illustation. I wanted it to look like the cover of an old board game. Anyway, I’ll begin showing some of my other stuff I’ve done as we get closer to release. We’re looking to launch in the next month or two. Also keep an eye on our official site for the game HERE.

Hey everyone. I finally decided to submit some stuff to Threadless. First up is an older one of my designs. Check it out and vote if you can. If you give it a perfect score of 5 I will mail you a puppy. THANKS!

I’m so late in posting these. I was waiting till I finished my drawing to post them all, but I have only a loose sketch done and with me going to be a dad any day now, I don’t see me having any spare time and time soon. LOL. Anyway, I hope you all enjoy them. I’m not doing any voting this time so instead just leave comments on which ones you like or don’t like and why. And the end of the day its all about learning and becoming a better artist so all constructive criticism is appreciated!

So my buddy Keith Lackey who currently works at WETA digital (they made the effects for King Kong and Lord of the Rings) as a Technical Director gave me a call last week. He pitched me an iphone game idea that I fell in love with. We have been hard at work on said idea [...]

I’m sure you all have seen that Barack Obama poster by Obey. It’s become quite popular. Well, here is my version of REAL change and hope. The one and only Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. I still think Obama is gonna do a great job (hard to do worse) but I’ve always said that [...]

It seems I’ve been posting lots of cute stuff lately and that trend ain’t stopping here. (However the entries for our Barbarian contest will be posted soon enough so hang in there.) What we have here is the art I put together for my daughter Kayla who will be here in another 6 weeks or [...]

Here is a little taste of what I’m working on for my next promotional piece. I’m putting together a small book that will be used to help clients understand how to work with their graphic designers. (Hence the title) One of the most important steps in having a successful working relationship with a client is [...]

Here is a piece I did today for a client in London. I actually have had a version of the pinup girl done for like a year and was selling it as clip art. I was asked to change her outfit and make it into a splash page for a Fashion website. Pretty fun, Enjoy!

Now here is a fun job I was hired to do For Stuph Clothing’s new Winter piece. They wanted something besides the old brochure layout so we switched it up and did a poster instead. Below you will see the final poster (both front and back) as well as a nice high resolution image of [...]
