spontaneity rules the day

These are the result of a little burst of inspiration today. Sometimes, you've just got to drop what you're doing, and let spontaneity rule the day!

Sketchbook

A few recent sketches

My sketchbook is where I'm free to experiment and make mistakes :) It's nice to just relax and draw without worrying about how it looks. It's good to let loose sometimes.

See more on Flickr.

This book inspired me to keep a sketchbook:

It's an interesting little book, and if you're really into sketchbooks or are just interested, you can find it on Amazon. It will offer a little inspiration :)

Babylon Cafe Logo

I recently had the opportunity to design this logo for a restaurant in Kurdistan, Iraq called Babylon Cafe. The top design is the one chosen by the client, and the bottom two are unused proposals.

The client wanted something "iconic" from the Babylonian period, so the top and final logo represents the Tower of Babel and the Hanging Gardens of Babylon. The bottom two are based on Babylonian art.

These can be seen on my LogoPond page, as well.

Illustrator Tutorial: Shape Texture

I have written my first tutorial on Squidoo: squidoo.com/illustrator_shape_texture! I finally gave in and signed up at Squidoo.com to start writing tutorials. The tutorial is about applying a custom texture to a shape in Adobe Illustrator, which is the same technique I used in my Howling Wolf illustration.

Check it out!
