One of the perks of working for a resort client is being able to stay on property. When I was creative director on the Sea Island Resorts account, I had many such opportunities and it can spoil you after awhile. Confession: I’m a toiletries hoarder and each time I stayed at The Cloister I would [...]
portrait of boy as bear
This painting, like “fawn”, went through many iterations to get to this point. I thought maybe if I posted it I would be less likely to continue working it to oblivion.

The Pale Blue Dot
I came across this video (not new) as I was getting ready to finally start my saturday. Clean house, finish up some project work, and hit the studio for some much needed quality time with paint and brush.

Never having been to Italy, my mom and I decided a tour was the [...]
alcatraz
A few years back, The Designory held the annual Director\’s meeting in San Francisco. One of the side trips was San Quentin. It was a strange place.
I was experiencing some issues with my camera inside, and unfortunately don\’t recall all the settings I ended up with, but the photos were astounding. These are unretouched images. [...]
