AIGA Jacksonville: Calling All Toy Makers →
I couldn’t be more excited! My original idea was fun but after reading their Facebook event description I realized I haven’t based any of my passed entries on actual toys I loved as a kid. I don’t want to give it away just yet but there will be toy customization/sculpting/painting involved and I can’t wait to get started! You’ll have to stay tuned to see process shots...

Just a quick photo (forgive the crappy cell cam quality) of a design I did for work inspired by el Dia de los Muertos (Day of the Dead). They’re going to be at a trade show in Ft.

There are...

Here’s my entry of that assignment I posted about a while ago along with the other amazing entries. I wanted to make mine costumes of a bunch of my favorite movies but I only got the chance to do two: Ghostbusters and Dracula. :) I’ve never really made paper dolls before so I’m not too sure how good/easy this would be to cut out and put together. But feel free to do so and send...

Say A Prayer For Japan & Donate
I’m really inspired by all the different ways to donate and help out Japan that I’ve seen people come up with. Like the playoffs that Michael Paukner started up on Dribbble to create awareness which I just participated in tonight:
