Pee & Poo

Oh my god...this is funny. Someone created Pee and Poo dolls! I actually think they're kind of cute heheh. I can see why they're selling though.... sometimes it's worth a laugh. Can you imagine opening this up for Christmas?

I need to come up with something like that. Someone will ask me, "What did you make?" "Oh I just created shit," I'd answer.

Been spending my last couple days drawing like a madman. Yes...drawing. Paper and pencil. I'm finding out I'm still a lot faster getting my ideas out on a piece of paper rather then on the computer. That's surprising considering how much more time I've spent using my computer as a tool for design. But sometimes the old school way is still the best way... and it's the fastest way. I save costs by doing things fast.

I sketched out some logo ideas for my chocolate client. Hahah. I shouldn't be giving my client's names (at least not till the job is done) so I'll call her the "Chocolate lady" Anyway, it seems like she's caught a liking to maybe 2 out of the 9 I presented to her. That's good. I'll show the whole series here one day once the final logo is completed. Sometimes I like watching how other artists work their process....so I'll show mine.

Then tonight I had to jam on sketching out a concept for a fitness club gentleman I met. This one will be fun but I suspect it might be expensive to get my idea on the screen as I would need a good photographer and a stylist. I'm trying to get some good old fashioned Hawaiian themed images based off of their old sports and Makahiki games.

OOH, darn...just remembered I still need to do color-scheme work tonight for my law firm clients. UGH.... I guess I'm not off duty yet.

The nice thing that I discovered lately was this old stash of art supplies I had in my closet. Art pencils, rulers, tracing paper, bezier curve stencils, protractors, color pencils & pens, etc etc. They were given to me by an old elementary school friend named YJ that had visited me once after many years I hadn't seen him. There were 2 guys in elementary I would consider as better sketch artists then me at the time.... Mel and YJ.

Anyway, YJ had given me ALL his art supplies after having gone through college art school. At the time, I was like "oh thanks.... " I mean, I appreciated it, but how was I to know how much until this weekend when I really was looking for EXACTLY those things.

I had lost track of YJ again....for all I know he's in Korea doing god knows what. He was a good friend.... we just drifted apart findig different interests. I hope he's doing well out there. THANKS FOR THE ART SUPPLIES YJ!!!

Back to work....
