Ancient Columns.

Romanesque, obviously, but they have their own distinctive design. This was graphite on charcoal paper. This is rather old. It was done in summer of 2010.

 

Mission Statement.

This was an assignment for a class. The instructions were to create a mission statement for your life. It could take any form. Here are the results. Five envelopes, each with a word that pertains to an interest and a quote relating to it. Inside is an image that is relevant in some fashion.  The images are as follows:

BUILD: Seattle Public Library, by Rem Koolhaas and OMA.

DRAW: A painting by Jean Giraud, aka Mobius. My biggest artistic influence.

WORDS: The Voynich manuscript. Exact origins and authorship unknown.

CITIES: Hong Kong skyline. PHotographer unknown.

FUTURE: A nebula. Hubble telescope.

 

Just a simple wood model.

This was an assignment for Architectural Design 2. I won’t go in to all the details. It’s just a wooden frame for an exploration type assignment. In any case, this was made primarily with basswood, and is mostly held together via zapkicker. There are a few details you can’t make out from this angle. I have more photos of this thing, so I may upload those later.

 

Something I might create…

I have a yearning to create a pixelart of a scientific calculator.

 

The next few posts…

Posting over the next few days will be a bit lighter, since I’ve mostly run out of stuff to post. Things should start to pick up to the previous pace over the weekend.  Plus, I need to diversify my posts. More infographics, more logos, identity stuff, some sculpture, more sketchup models, etc. Standard illustration will continue to be the main focus, however.

Another wallpaper.

The next wallpaper is for my iPhone. Similar theme, with a different word and text.

 

Wallpaper.

The text is just random stuff meant to sound ‘poetic’ or what have you. The visual style is what matters here. Soon I will upload the flower image used in the background of this one, and the previous one.

Time and design.

A good design is like wine, or cheese. It needs to age before it reaches any real level of potential. You can’t just hammer it out in a few hours, or even a few days, and expect it to stand the test of time. It needs to appreciate in value.

Like a crystal growing in solution, or a plant, good design has an emergent quality. The best parts crystallize and the ephemera falls away.
