1st Commission: Logo

As a main source of income I am a salon receptionist. I enjoy it very much and find that I am able to express my creativity in that environment. Two of my jobs I created unique salon themed art for their interior design. I also made connections with others in the salon industry like reps from product distribution companies and shear sharpeners who freelance from one salon to another. One of these sharpeners asked me to design a logo for him. He was looking to improve his visual marketing.

Here are the sketches I came up with based on the criteria he provided me with. Sorry about the poor quality!

A wonderful night for sketching

Last night I was in a particularly inspired mood. I sketched in a group of fellow artists and I find that I feed off the creative energy in the room. We all did some great sketches. Mine were on the...stranger side. Enjoy!

 I was looking at a lot of spinal chord and skeletons lately to help with figure drawing. 


 ...I couldn't tell you honestly. It's just a turtle squid....
 I like drawing tentacles and snakes. Something about really curvy lines appeal to me.
 You gotta watch out for those dream spiders, man.
