Working on redoing my portfolio and creating some new branding. I lost my other business card design with my old harddrive, so I wanted to have fun and make a newer, more bizarre one.
Enjoy! Lots more news on the horizon!

Robot Sketch #2
"How I Feel About You Pt. II" Pencil, 11" 14"Here's the other sketch for my robot paintings, for the upcoming Space 242 "I...YOU...WE ROBOT!" show coming up this month. This is the match to my last drawing - the two are a couple. They represent each halves of the excitement and pain that love brings. I hesitate to post this type of art sometimes because, for me, it's something deeply personal and emotional that I'm not sure most will understand.
I'll post the finished paintings after they're completed.
Business card sketch, Pencil, 12" x 9"More updates this coming week with previews for my spring show: Guilty Pleasures with Doug Poole. Go check out his work if you get the chance!
And submissions for the Robot show are due this upcoming Monday, January 11th. I encourage anyone with a love for anything robotic to submit something!

Things.
I have a few things to talk to you about. This will be a long blog.
1. www.gorillaartfare.com
I have seen some INCREDIBLE art on this site, which has given me SO MUCH inspiration.
As a student, sometimes it's hard to think of your art as having a feasible place in the art world. But the work I've seen from some of the artists on this site have really given me some insight and some security in what I'm doing. Concept art is so beautiful to see, and the thought behind it can be stunning. So PLEASE check out this site when you have a chance.
2. Troy Galluzzi
I found him on gorillaartfare.com.
His work reminds me of my idol, Veronica Hebard, and to see other artists using such brilliant, neon colors in such well-done work encourages me to work with bright colors. His traditional work is ASTOUNDING, and his digital work makes me just squee with joy. Here are some examples. Go check him out!
3. Business card
This is my solution to my business card problem. I feel much more confident in what I've created (thanks to the help of my Lindsay Small, Andy Fish, and the rest of my classmates). I feel very confident about this one, especially after I've been such an emotional wreck these days because of the fire. I hope you like it to! Let me know if you'd like me to send you one, along with one of my promo postcards. I have stamps!
4. I had a review with some of the creators of Rock Band at Harmonix tonight.
They told me that I have a good sense of color, and it shows in my traditional work. I wish I had had better digital samples for them, but the fact that they had difficulty telling my gouache work from my digital work gives me a sense of accomplishment. I talked to Mitchell, one of the character designers, and his feedback was great. I told him that I was interested in making toys and apparel, and he told me my work would translate well to 3D media. I take that as a HUGE encouragement, and talking to a professional has really helped my view of things. I feel enriched from talking to them. (And they set up Rock Band 2 on the big projector screen on the 11th floor, so I got to display my AMAZING fake guitar abilities, my bum wrist yelling at me the whole time.)

New Business Cards
Here are some business card ideas I've been fiddling with.
I think I'm gonna go with the first one.
Image in first one adjusted with Shawn Morris's advice. (Thanks Shawn!)

I Mean Business
AND BY BUSINESS I MEAN BUSINESS CARDS!
New design for my business cards, featuring future new website address!!! *www.bamcatart.com* I bought the new web domain today.
Andy and Ken mentioned that I should go for something a little less cutesy for my business cards/promotional material. I agree. As much as I'd LOVE rainbow cards, people wouldn't take me as seriously as I'd want them too. I'm not just a cartoonist - I'm very versatile, I think. I just love cartoons.
So here's new business cards featuring Bookie the Black Dog! I hope you like them. :)
