Our New Baby!!

Cool Stuff, News, Personal 3 Comments
Well, my wife, Rayna, and I have an announcement to make: We are now proud parents of a 24″ 2.8ghz iMac! (I’m sorry, Mom and Dad for not telling you first) We plan on holding an iMac shower in the near future–invites are forthcoming. Feel free to be generous on the gifts–new Epson scanners, printers, external HDs, iPods, iPhones are welcome gifts (anything with an Apple logo is great–if it doesn’t have an Apple logo I can put one on it–the computer came with two Apple stickers). Even OpenType fonts are a desired. Maybe a new Wacom Tablet?!! Don’t be stingy.

Okay, Rayna, you’ve had your turn on the computer, now it’s my turn. C’mon, you’ve been hogging it all night!! I can see this is going to be a problem. That’s it, I’m off to buy another one…

Spaghetti Rex

Nothing says Italian food more than Tyranosaurus Rex! Am I right?
I have been working on a personal portfolio project for the last few weeks and decided to post some updates. This is a concept branding scheme for an italian restaurant. This is a fun one. Maybe I can sell this brand some day for a lot of money. I’ll probably work on more illustrations following this theme–maybe of other dinosaurs doing italian food activities. I’ll also do some business cards, stationary, and letterhead,–and maybe a website mock-up.
Here are some sample menu pages. The menu was stol–BORROWED– from “The Olive Garden”.
