Archived Art - circa 1995 - GMC Vehicles
As part of my on-going effort to archive all my previous illustrations I stumbled upon this one. It was illustrated in pen &ink using the stipple (tiny dot technique).
GMC wasn't a client. Rather I illustrated the vehicles to show prospective ad agencies my rendering style.

Grand Hotel Illustration
Detailed close-up
Here's a vector illustration of the Grand Hotel on Mackinac Island. It was created for a web site. Placing the windows and pillars took forever to get "just right". Creating the angular shadows was a lot of fun to do because it gave the illustration some depth.

This is a logo I did for my cousin back in 2001. At the time he used factory rat 71 as the prefix to his email address.

Flash Game Background Screen
Here's a background screen for a potential Flash game. It's a different illustration style than I'm accustomed to. I think it turned out pretty decent.

Avant Garde Clown Troupe
A couple years ago I went to the River Fest in Mendon, MI. They had canoe races, games, concession stands and this excellent Avant Garde clown troupe. I asked one of them to make me a balloon animal... instead he crafted me a balloon noose. Funny clown.

My Painting Area
This is a photo of my painting studio. I slop a lot of paint so I had to cover the walls with some plastic.
On the easel is a completed abstract cardboard painting before I placed it in a public place for someone to find.
Ironically there's a canvas behind the easel where I clean my brushes. There are days when that canvas looks better than anything I've actually painted.

Unfinished Art - Youths
Here's some more unfinished illustrations. I believe these are about 3 years old. I thought I'd post them here since I'll probably never revisit them.

Video Blog - Ft. Custer Mountain Biking
Here's a portion of a video segment I shot/edited depicting Ft. Custer's (Battle Creek, MI) mountain bike course. We transported 60-70lbs of video equipment up and down bike trails using one of those child bike trailers. The bike trailer barely fit the majority of Ft. Custer's trails.
(I believe this was shot during the Spring of 2003.)
