Hot Dog!
May2
Recently, I wrapped up some t-shirt designs for a competitive jump rope team in Kirkland called Hot Dog USA. I was supposed to help them design a banner and a two sets of t-shirts.
For the banner, they wanted design to contain some Seattle landmarks as well as jump rope elements.
For the t-shirts, they wanted one performance tee and a secondary tee for when they’re not performing. The first was to be in cardinal red and was supposed to mirror the banner. The second was to be neon green so that the performers will be easy to spot in crowds during travel and break times. Here’s the performance tee…
… and here’s the non-performance tee.
Here’s the team’s homepage. You can read more about them in the Seattle Times.
Here’s a video from the same Times article…
Here’s a bunch of YouTube videos…
Stupid, stupid, stupid…

When I tried to update to the latest Wordpress last night, for some reason, all my drawings that I downloaded off the server got corrupted. So to make them show up again, I have to go back and upload each one of them all over again. So if you’re looking for the old material, you’re just gonna have to wait.
Also, the look of this site has changed. I had to do that since Wordpress wasn’t displaying the previous theme properly. I don’t like it. Maybe it’s time for a new design for this site…
UPDATE: Thanks to Joe for getting the site fixed this morning! I owe you, man.
Blockbusters launched!
May0
Here is my shameless plug for the week. Last week, Apple finally approved our first iPhone game titled Blockbusters. It’s a 3D puzzle game where you have to get rid of the colored blocks until you’re left with the red gem resting on the black blocks.
My work was mainly on the look of the game which included the game elements, the UI, and the logo. You can check out a free demo here and purchase the full version here.
We’ll be having our next iPhone game launched within the next couple weeks. I’ll keep you posted on it. Come check it out and help me make some money 
UPDATE: The links will only work if you have iTunes installed. If those don’t work, you can always go to the iTunes store and do a search for “Blockbusters.”

It’s time to wake up from my month-long slumber and get back to blogging. I haven’t posted a lot of material lately, mostly because I’ve been working on a few projects at once. A couple of them are near publishing, and I’ll post some of the artwork once I get the OK from the clients. So stay tuned…
In the meantime, I’ve posted another piece of artwork. You would figure with me being gone so long that I would have a lot of time to make something that’s not a rushed drawing of a color-uncoordinated bird-lizard creature with antlers and stump legs when in actuality my next post is a rushed drawing of a color-uncoordinated bird-lizard creature with antlers and stump legs.
Birthday thanks

To Mom and Dad for dinner and the Itzhak Perlman tickets (It’s really something to see the guy at that age barely get across the stage, sit down, and still play the violin better than I ever could).
To my family for their simple, but deeply meaningful gifts. To Olwen for the fancy shmancy pillow and the Domo.
To everyone else, for all their birthday wishes that flooded my inbox and voicemail. Thanks!
