“Wrong Century” — Brilliant illustration by artist Tomas Kucerovsky depicting the fate of plus-size beauty in the modern age.
Colbert on Ayn Rand and Objectivism
We will be calculating the incredible damage this woman has done to society for the next hundred years.
“At first, there seems a discrepancy: we hear incessant talk of low job growth and economic distress, but see people tapping expensive smartphones and buying the latest social-mobile app. Indeed, the technology and design industries seem unaffected by the recession, set to continue on the same course of planned obsolescence they’ve been on for decades. But a second look reveals that advances in these sectors are helping people adjust to life in a pared-down economy, in a world where the environment has become a main concern. Our recession isn’t happening in a vacuum, and advances in design and technology, paired with an economy in flux, are changing the definition of both work and the workplace.”

Another quick illustration. Yay for penguins with Mohawks!
Another creation finished. Was thinking about actually just doing the mini logo behind it, but am putting it aside for now.
and yeah, I put a watermark on it, was sending it to a possible client who backed out last minute, oh well more for the folio!
My recent work: Mr Roger’s Barbecue. I wasn’t gonna post it here, because I didn’t know if it was good enough, but then I listened to Neil Gaiman’s commencement speech and I said fuck it. That’s right, fuck it, I love doing what I do. I made the excuse that I’ll post my work when my site is done, or I thought it wasn’t good enough. Thing is, those are excuses. I don’t need my website to be done to post it, and I dunno if this is good, but I loved making it, so wanted to share it with others. I just want to make good art, the way I know how. You make you learn - even from the unsuccessful things you do.
So I plan on posting more soon, and get that site finished at some point so I have a home for people to look me up.
So happy Belated memorial day and if nothing else …
Stay Calm and Barbecue On!
(Mr Rogers’ style)
