New Work...

In the last several weeks I have been able to finish several paintings from the 10 days project.  Here they are...

New Work for All You Can Eat, at Bunny Gunner, Feb 2012

Pursuasive Product Sketch Demo...

Today in my branding course we went over how to create a pursuasive sketch.  This is what I did as the demo. 

Love working here!

Check out our little co-workers! Brenna made a very nice snow man yesterday and Conner is always very entertaining in the studio.

SUU Gymnastics Facility Banners

For the past month, the studio has been working on some large banners for the SUU Gymnastics Facility. There are 2 banners, each about 8 feet tall and 70 feet, and 120 feet long. The athletes on the banners are record holders and national qualifiers. The imagery was meant to illustrate the technical side of the sport. Each photograph has a drawing offset to represent what the gymnast is thinking about or striving for as she moves. The banners are being installed this week, so photographs of the final product in it's space are to come soon!

As a secondary project, we created a door vinyl to block out the sun coming into the facility on one of the doors. This is a mock up of the door frame over the image, but photographs are to come soon. 

Drawing with Brenna

So my daughter Brenna and I spent the morning drawing together. I believe this is her first still life. Not too shabby for a six year old.

Painting Day

This week the designers learned something new! It is no secret that Jay is an exceptional painter. If you are unfamiliar with his work, head to Merryweather Studios and check out some of his work. Lots of color, lots of faces and other intriguing imagery. Spencer and I were "hired on" to help promote the studio, design great things for old and new clients, and assist with any projects. Painting though, is not on the list of talents for either of us. On Friday we began a painting phase and learned Jay's particular process which was a ton of fun.
Spencer and Ari are already hooked.

This is a previously prepared work that Jay is getting back to now.

First portrait for me!

Spencer's first portrait as well.

Our lovely painting set up.
