Looking for Outbreak Monkeys

I’d like to send you some free jewelry.

or is it a ring?I’m looking for people who want to wear my art, and then talk about it. If you can help me out here, contact me.

Otherwise I’m going to go back to what I was doing, which was trying to set up all of my social networks and publishing sites to topple on top of each other like dominoes when I kick at them from here.

So far things are responding to other things, but I’m still a step or two away from getting everything to echo everything else’s feed. Or I’m a step away from a resonance cascade, which would be funny as hell, but it would probably cause the internet to die over here.

I’m having a total blast doing what I’m doing, I really am. I’m having a great time learning my way around a new skill. I’d love to open the bag about this, but I need to get a few more things finished before I make any formal announcements.

Stay tuned…

From the Archives…

Back in 2007 I was working for a Haunted Attraction in NY. It was rated as 3rd best in the nation at the time, and I was proud to be a member of some of the hardest working suckers on the planet.

I was picked to design a room, and I was responsible for installing and dressing it from scratch.

Recently I discovered “Behance”, and I decided I should go ahead and spotlight this project on it. My “Baphomet” statue ended up being very well received, both on the internet and in real life.

So here it is, check it out.

I’d also like to take a moment to thank Chris De Troy, without his guidance, this project would not have happened.

NightRaid: A Winamp Skin

Over on reddit, a user posted a link asked “anyone else remember skinning this?” The link was to a screen shot of the default user interface for Winamp. Winamp is one of the older and more popular of the mp3 players. I recommend it for the visualization library and the tagging and reburning features alone.

I love those animated buttons

I’m a big fan of UI design. It’s fun to do in website design because you’re free to do anything with very little in the way of limitations. However, sometimes it’s a lot of fun to work under practical constrictions. It causes a person to have to really push themselves and see how far they can get away with.

Over the course of a few months, I designed and released three skins. Two of them were shared on Winamp.com, and two were released to critical acclaim over on DeviantArt.

Loki’s Workshop: Postcard

Designed as a last minute emergency replacement for Loki’s Workshop’s appearance in Fangoria, it was shelved for future use. This design will be used in Loki’s next ad campaign, which includes releasing to another magazine, and will also be used for their first print media campaign. More than likely this will also be released as bonus content on their website shortly.

Just sent off to the printers, in glorious CMYK format.

Postcards from Hell

Postcards from Hell.

Done as a way of a quick high five to the rest of the Haunt Industry, this work is an homage to a shared influence. I think a large majority of those in the scene were  fundamentally and permanently altered by the low-brow genius of pulp horror, especially in graphic novel media.

Fans of this should contact me via e-mail or throught this site with their name and address as soon as possible. There might be some Halloween magic in it for you.

Sorry, offer ended. Look out for the next one.
