Continuing in my new small sketchbook with studies for upcoming live drawing session for Carole Kim's "Singing Head" installation at REDDCAT as part of the second session of the NOW

"Local Hero" Canvas Tote Bag

This tote bag was a commissioned version of my Local Hero painting of the Colorado Bridge here in Pasadena. The wonderful Organization
http://ielts.org/ licensed this vector version of my painting to be screen printed on tote bags and given out to administrators at their national meeting this summer. They also produced a t-shirt, which I have yet to photograph.

Thank you IELTS!

Postcards: "Local Hero"

I was recently commissioned to turn my painting "Local Hero" (colorado bridge) into single color vector illustration for screen printing on gift tote bags and t-shirts. I will post pics of the final products later, these are postcards that will accompany the gifts when they are delivered to national meeting attendees.

Imagination = Utility

The first of the two Utility Boxes I was commissioned to create was installed just a few weeks ago, next week the final goes in.  This one lives at the corner of Oak Knoll and Union in the Playhouse District of Pasadena, California. (Thank you Playhouse District Association for the above photos:)
