Softly turned to winter

Winter seems to have snuck up on us this year. December came around and the temperature plummeted, leaves disappeared and things as a whole slowed down. Luckily with that, came fewer distractions - so when Kay and i aren't hibernating at home watching movies, We're spending more time in the studio.

Here are a photos from the last week or two of work...

An afternoon's worth of sketches and drawings.


Drawing hair. lots of hair.


Close crop of a big drawing almost completed


Progress on a suite of panels. many many more to come.

"It Is What It Is, But It Isn't" - ATL

I just returned from spending a week in Atlanta, where I had the great pleasure of working with California-based artist, Kendell Carter, on his most recent solo venture, "It Is What It Is, But It Is'nt".

It took the better part of the week to wrap the install, but it couldn't have turned out better. His work is fantastic, and this show is no exception . If you are anywhere near Atlanta in the coming weeks, please visit the Trois Gallery!

Space Camp 2010

Earlier this month, Kay and I took a long weekend with our friends Jonathan and Whitney. We ventured down to Florida to hang out on the beach and nerd out at the Kennedy Space Center...

Polaroid of Kay and I just inside the center


Jon and Whit's dog, JD - ready to hit the road



Kennedy Space Center's awesome Rocket Garden
Polaroid of Jonathan and Whitney in the Rocket garden


USA! USA!


Kay on a walkway that was once used by the astronauts...





I've gotta say, the Russians certainly  got a couple things right in their space program. For starters, the term "cosmonaut" is way cooler than "astronaut"

...and they've got a great color scheme going here.


Astro-Snoopy

Great logo design for the Apollo 8 Mission


You know I'm a sucker for diagrams



Jonathan and I in front of the Astrovan



While we were in the park we were lucky enough to watch a test flight of the new Falcon IX rocket. 
Being inside the Space center, we were able to get just about as close to the launch as a civilian can get.

Take off!


Kay and I right after the launch!


Yay Space!

Cool coffee shop sign in downtown Titusville


Jon and Whit in a small museum in downtown Titusville.

They had actual consoles from early NASA launches, which were really great to examine.

Astro-snoopy again


More great design work for the Apollo missions

Jonathan and I playing Bocce on Cocoa Beach

On our last day we visited Playlinda beach, which is part of the Nature preserve in the KSC. Miles and miles of beautiful beaches. A great end to a great trip. If you ever get a chance to check out the space center, do it. It's pretty exciting.

Whitney also has a ton of photos on her Flickr.
