Dia de los Muertos
Almost completed design for a tee. I'm fascinated by the Day of the Dead festival in Hispanic culture. I love the melting together of celebration and morbidity - the proliferation of sugared skulls, decorated skulls, shrines, candles, masses of flowers. It reminds me a little of the aesthetic and mood of the Baz Lurhmann film 'Romeo and Juliet' - which was obviously inspired in part by aspects of that culture. I drew reference from a human skull, marigold flowers and roses, plus also from traditional tattoo designs for the heart, crown, ribbon, butterflies and birds. Some freehanded candles, blossoms and two stars finish it off. I took it all into Illustrator and created clean linework - then hand rendered the colour with pencils (took approx 8 hours non stop). Once I get my silly programs working again I'll clean it up in Photoshop - the skull actually has beautiful blue gradien.

Life Swallow
My son recieved a life saving multi organ transplant at 10 months old. I have met so many famlies, adults, children, and infents fighting for their lives. Some I watched make it and living wonderful full lives now and others I've watched lose the fight... They are all an amazing group of people! My swallow has a Donate Life support ribbon in his mouth and is blue and green because those are the campaighn colors..
No hiding the truth
