My Mother made rum-soaked fruitcakes in the attic space.
Remember these things?
I went to the theatre in California that I designed them for and they are no longer a theory.
You have a good eye!
What’s not to like. Your models are always fun and imaginative.
Way cool! I want to see surfers on them in action.
They hadnt quite worked them out while I was there, but they did use them.
And some in progress shots while I was on set programming the back wall (which was also all my art)
Cool stuff!
FUN!!! Put a big smile on my face!
Very cool !
Nice to see a finished product compared to the design model/concept. Way to go!
Continuing the “carboard model” theme for all of Lakewood’s graphic design needs this season means I need little interstitial images that comply with the feeling.
Hey, help me out here.
When you see that I have posted something new here, what are you expecting to see when you click into this gallery?
What is unique about my approach and possibly interesting about my apparent workflow?
(( EDIT:: I’m about to go into a 16 show - partial repertory - round robin in a theatre for the next 5 months, and I was thinking about using the whole experience as a teaching tool, and while I think I understand what my angle is and what makes me interesting, it would be helpful to know how others unaware of my exact approach to ‘art’ would classify it ))
first, probably your face. top left of the message.
then…
theatre stuff, cute stuff (taco truuuuck), ipad stuff. and from time to time, barn stuff.
I like to see people doing weird stuff, not houses. and most galleries / work shown around here are proper exports, you tend to show annotated things, looks like you’re really using your ipad as much as possible, that’s cool. it’s a valid design tool.
and yeah, from time to time, you’ll just throw a teapot or a door or a taco truck. because reasons.
it’s a bit like Dave’s gallery, you know that there are good chances you’ll find a 100y old steam engine, or part of it. that’s cool
ipad + annotations and 2d sketches. not just the end result.

Sketchy. It looks like your able to get into an iterative flow using the stylus for markups. But then turn the ‘scratch’ into quality models. You make the connection between imaginable and buildable.
Contrary to a very focused ‘serious’ style, if I had to guess I’d say you are inspired by children’s books (which I mean as a compliment).
I’m an architect and you’re not, and I find that different POV and technique interesting and refreshing. It’s important to get out of your own microcosm.
Further, I’ve always been a huge fan of comic strips and wished I had the talent for it myself. I love the style you’ve developed with this software that wasn’t really originally conceived as a cartoon or illustration medium.
Interesting projects and imagery that were created with your great skills.
An idea imagined, SketchUp-ed, fleshed out, and finally brought in to the real.
Seeing an idea come to fruition through your process. Thank you for it.
