Love the textures of old, urban structures. This was taken near the San Francisco Presidio.
Natural beauty.
JR is an urban photographer who creates massive (unauthorized) installation works across the world, creating a wonderful social dialogue. His Face2Face project is particularly conceptual and moving. He placed portraits of Israeli and Palestinian faces side by side, making people realize their similarities as humans–emotion, job, looks, etc–to bring about a peaceful understanding to the varied audiences.

Here’s a sketch I did a while back called Skull Mountain. It was inspired by a few horror films and a microbiology book. Random creativity.
This woman was so great to photograph–you get a glimpse of her passion for life–living without inhibitions. This was part of the Body Art Expo exhibition held at the Cow Palace.
Communication Arts posted a review of the ALS Society of Canada ad campaign. The designs of the ads are poignant and conceptually powerful. This is a great example of how–as visual communicators–we could influence people’s perceptions. The white diagram is of a maze, suggesting there is “no signal” in ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis).
Thought these products from Spike Jonze’s The Girl Skateboard Company were a great tease for the new live-action version of “Where the Wild Things Are”.

Tshirtaudit.com reviewed my Tiki Shirt on their site (March 14, 2009). I had a lot of fun creating this design and was pleased to discover that others find it just as entertaining. I think this deserves a “whooohooo” and a thank you to the jolly Tiki gods with flames a-blazin!
Closeup of an Orchid from the Pacific Orchid Exposition at Fort Mason last weekend. Such complexity and beauty.

This sketch was inspired by the Pacific Orchid Expo at Fort Mason. The pen/ink illustration was created in a couple of hours, during my commute.
