BOOOOOOOM! – Project #7

Jeff Hamada over at booooooom.com has another cool project going on. Hopefully I’ll be able to find the time to get something together, but 2 minutes is hard to find with a little one running around… I know, I know the time I’m spending to write this up could have been used to participate in the project, but hey then all ya’ll wouldn’t know about it. (Unless you read it on Boooooom yourself) Besides I’d rather make excuses for not doing things. Take responsibility for my actions? Please! Have we learned nothing from today’s scociety? LOL!

So anyway, here’s the instructions for Project #7. Alter a magazine cover! Find a magazine cover (a person’s face is a great starting point). Alter the image using pen, pencils, paint, scissors, whatever! Take a photo of your creation! No digital work – get off your computer!
Since I’m blogging about this kinda late, there’s been a bunch of submissions already.

Here’s a few that I was digging.

Life at (up to) 3g Speeds

For all you tech geeks out there, check out the video blog at igreggor.com I get a kick out of igreggor’s rants about technology, super markets, and all things apple. The show airs 4 times a week.

Shad- alt. sessions

Check out Shad over at www.aux.tv Here’s a preview of the video.

Complete Technique

Based out of New York, Complete Technique is hands down my favorite jeweller. They specialize in fine audio Jewelery.
I find myself checking the calendar portion of their site on the regular. Osa, the designer posts pictures of what he’s working on, showcasing the process on how each piece is made.

New (old) Banksy

Some newer Banksy stuff that was put up awhile back.

Custom Shades

Got me some custom shades thanks to my daughter. Not quite as cool as Jeff Hamada’s new shades But these were made with some fine materials. You too could be stylin’ like me. Just take the finest masking tape you can find (I used 2″ wide), your favorite colored sharpies and a pair of broken cheap sunglasses.

Don’t believe the hype!

Here’s a couple of new designs. I’d like to make T-shirts out of them eventually, if I can carve out some time too. Before having my daughter, I had so much free time, that now I wish I hadn’t wasted… Time is precious and all those clichés that always seem poignant only after you’ve gone through it the wrong way. Live and learn, right?

Unplug

This next one is for all ya’ll that go to the beat of your own drummer.

Branded

As stated in my last post, I thought my slump would’ve been longer… Thankfully that wasn’t the case. Artistic slumps are rough, Especially in my case, as its what I do for a living. Here’s the piece I was inspired to do from the previous post.

Inspiration

Found this while web-surfing last week. This inspired a design that I probably won’t start for a few weeks… It’ll haunt me until I give up on procrastination and finally decide to create something… Man I hate the artistic slumps. Anyways, enjoy!
