New Section - What I'm into currently.
A new "Scratcher" ad I concepted and completed in record time. It's fun.. but corporate wanted it to "auto-scratch" after 15 secs. Unnecessary. Oh well.
A new Free Domain ad I did for our UK customers. Supposed to drive traffic to Landing Pages on our storefront.
Another poster design for my friend Aimee Bayles, she doing crafts (bags, sweaters, etc.)...check out her store.

Some business cards I designed for my roommate.

So I'd like to begin by saying, I can't believe someone paid for this. When I saw this graphic along with the rest of the page it graced (including the HTML/CSS) I was appalled. On the left is work we received from an "Advertising Agency". Either A.) they had an intern do this (which I doubt it was an $18k project I believe) or B.) they have absolutley no grasp of typography and simple layout. So being the nice guy that I am, I offered to fix it. But I didn't get $18k for it. Keep in mind this is a portion of an entire page.

My first attempt at making my own wine was a success! "A Lake & The City" Brewed and Bottled Dec. 15th, 2007 In Manassas, VA. Absolutley delicious. A red wine to enjoy.

I finished up a vinyl graphics package for Farmboy Fabrications out of Florida. Their shop truck is a heavily modified Ford F-150. I think the look is killer for a tough and mean looking truck. Here's an image of one of the initial mock-ups. I'd drive it.

While watching a little tv last night I had an idea... I'm interested in going green in my home. I'm starting some research of easy to install products and anything green that relates to your house/apt or business. It's the beginning of a lifestyle that I'd like to base a business on in the future.

I started a new batch of wine. Mezza Luna Red. Look for it this holiday season. I can't wait!

I'm sure you noticed. I did a redesign. I wanted to go all xhtml/css. Just basic code.. no fancy flash or but some nice javascript.
This is oriented towards my new found passion of User Interface design and it includes some of my most recent design work from the past year as well as some of my older work. Look for updates more often. This version allows me to update with zero effort.
This is it. Hope you like it.
Also here's a link to the previous version.

Started a new Flickr account. I can't believe these guys have unlimited uploads for $20/yr. I'll be uploading like 14 gigs of images. Sucks for them.

CURRENT MP3 - "Mountain of a Heart" by Chamberlain (Rock/Soul/Indie)
I really dig this song. I feel like its got something. I guess it has a story. Great vocals too.
