Up up and Away..

Fluffy1_2What's that you say Dan? You've been secretly working on your graphic novel behind our backs? You say, there's a secret blog out there that you've been putting together for the project that no one can see besides you and your editors?

Well it's about time Mr. Santat.....

Don't label an apple an apple.

One of my favorite book jacket designers in the world is CHIP KIDD (Who wouldn't agree?) and here is an amazing lecture featuring Chip Kidd, Dave Eggers, and design legend Milton Glaser. I think if you watch this video over and over again you'll learn a tremendous amount about iconic design and typography which are essential tools for visual communication.

You and I Don't Often Agree

This is yet another piece for the Gallery 1988 show. So far, I think this is my favorite piece out of the bunch.

A metaphor for dating

Another piece for the Gallery 1988 show next month. It's a rather cynical look at love, but it only pertains to one of my past relationships.

What a busy month!

First of all, a new painting for the Gallery 1988 show next month....
Groove Again, I apologize for it being such a crappy photo but that just mean's that if you want to see the original you'll have to get your butt down to the show which I'll provide details for later.

Now, I know I haven't posted in over a week and the reason is because my wife was battling a kidney stone all last week, and from what I've observed it's the worst form of pain on the face of the Earth.

I was hoping we could keep it so I could blow it up with a firecracker but, alas...

Anyway, I made this little get well card to commemorate the experience....
