Please vote for me in the TED696 comp

Tis the season for me to put on my begging cap (again). I'm one of the finalists in the TED696 Comp....


If you get a chance could you pop on over here and go to "the people's choice" section then slide the slidey thing to "i'm digging it" then hit the "submit" button. You don't have to register. There are only 2 more days to vote.

I loves you all!

Drawing Day Doodle

I had a few idle moments to doodle yesterday. Said doodling time happily coincided with Drawing Day. This is a worldwide drawing event encouraging everyone to drop everything and draw for the sake of art. They wanted 1 million drawings to be created online in an effort to boost online art communities.

Here is Robot boy loves bunny-eared green girl...

Runner up in Toohey's Comp.

Yay I'm second best. Or, is that I'm the first loser ... nope, second best.

Thanks to my chums, and perhaps the occassional stranger, my entry into the Tooheys competition won People's Choice Runner Up, which puts me in the running for lots of beer and some other stuff:)

An avalanche of tees – or maybe a teevalanche!

Tis only a few weeks until I move to Melbourne, so I thought I'd get my big, sheet-metalled guy to do some reconnaissance before I landed. Unfortunately, in true gigantic robot fashion, he decided to destroy the picturesque cityscape of the footy city.

Apparently it will be rebuilt and ready for when I alight.

Here are some shots of said destruction ...


All available in tshirt form at Red Bubble!

TED696 Project - please vote for me!!!

I've been madly thumping away in my vector shop of late. The latest little creation is this horned beauty ...


I whipped it up for the Tooheys TED696 competition. They are about to launch their new 696 ml long neck, and they want artists to create an arty paper bag for it.

All you need do is slide the little green slider to "I'm digging it" and hit "Submit vote".

They've commissioned one of my favourite artists, Shepard Fairey (of OBEY Giant fame), so in the unlikely event it wins, I will be in very good company indeed.

New web site ready for your viewing pleasure

I finally found a few free moments to chisel and solder my web site into existence. It's basically a showcase of my tee work, with a splash of portfolio work thrown in.


Goodies to come:

Completion of stage 1: more examples in the Hire Me/portfolio section. A few little paranoid tweaks here and there. And, importantly, improve the SEO.

Stage 2: fully integrate the Blog (at the moment it just sends folk off to my old blog). Thinking this might be a good opportunity to get into Ruby on Rails. Although I haven't had any professional experience with it as yet, I've looked under its bonnet and looks like it might purr like a well-tuned Chevy if I treated it right. Plus, several Ruby addicted friends say that they want to marry it and have its children. With a recommendation like that, you can imagine that I'm looking forward to getting to it better - at least date it a few times and see where it goes from there. Either that, or use Wordpress.

Stage 3: I will turn it into a fully fledged online shopping site.
