Backwood Dealings

Another entry for FreakingNews. The theme was Camping Boys...manipulate the image of the boys any way you choose.
Image placed fourth amongst 42 entries.
Image Description: Due to the bees dying, honey has become scarce... unfortunately it can only be found in the most unexpected areas on the black market. Better in full view.

A Night Where Stars Are Born

OK 2 print hit me up to do a flyer, haven't done a job for them in a minute. They needed a flyer asap so I did this in about an hour, talk about an extremely close deadline. I was lucky because the client knew exactly what they wanted and I just followed their criteria. The only thing I would change is to make "where" a little smaller, and probably use a different sticker background for the date.

Wotless

Old man and the Sea.

The shark was actually inspired by a concept car. Once I created it, the shark was alone in this big blue sea...I guess he scared all the other fish away. The only thing I could think of to make this more interesting was a fisherman, and it just took me back to a book I read when I was a kid...The Old man and the Sea.

Ceremony of Narcism

A day of joy, her head is in the clouds and sometimes they can force you into this box where you have to marry them or suffer the consequences...it's all about her.

Mr. Freeze

My first win on FreakingNews.com. This was for "The Week In News" contest. Obama proposes a spending freeze for the next 5 years. So I made him into the Mr. Freeze character from Batman.

Fallen

Inspired by my favorite artist Salvador Dali and my new favorite Rene Magritte.

This was another freakingnews.com entry. I think this is probably one of the best pieces I've ever done, but unfortunately this image placed 5th out of 38th entries, but no biggie either way it's all in fun. The whole purpose of me being on the site is not too win contest (secretly I do) but it's really a way for me to think outside the box and create imagery that I wouldn't usually make. See other entries here.

Cocaine Lab Bust

This was another entry for FreakingNews.com. This entry was about choosing a story in the news for the week of Jan 17 - 23. Mines was about a cocaine lab bust in Spain. To make things a little more interesting, I used an image of Bill Nye the science guy, referencing him as the head of the lab, since he is a scientist...knowing damn well that Bill would never be in such a scenario. This image came in second, out of 16 entries. Click link to see other entries.

Going On Vacation

This entry came second in the Freaking News website competition. Follow link to see other entries. The theme of this contest was Penguin Awareness Day. My interpretation of it is, that some penguins choose to go on vacation of this day.

King Rock

This was my entry for the Kid Rock competition on FreakingNews.com, and I got my ass kicked. Overall placing was 6 out of 37. Stiff competition. My next entry is pretty dope, can't wait to see what I'll be up against. 

Kids In The Hood

Needed some inspiration, was getting bored with what I was doing in my personal projects. So I decided to join FreakingNews.com, a photoshop competition site, where other photoshop enthusiast compete amongst each other on different themes.

The theme was Kids in the Hood, based on the image of the boy and the girl...but you could pretty much do whatever you wanted to with the image of the kids. This was my very first submission and I came 4th out of 44 other entries. The site rates the top 4 and I even got a trophy Icon, lol. I was in good company too, the top 3 are like the dominant members of the site, so I didn't feel too bad that I didn't come in first...maybe next round. Once the next competition ends I will display my current entry and standing.

Kanye

Getting bored with my style of photo compositions, which doesn't mean I'm gonna stop doing them, but I think I will try a caricature style see how that works.

The Private Tutor.

As a parent it's so important to teach your kids from an early age, how to navigate life, while simultaneously making sure they get the best education. At some point they are going to face the world on their own and they have a better chance of being successful in their endeavors, if they have a strong foundation to rely upon. Give your child the gift of wisdom.

Tabanca

So your girl, the apple of your eye decides to go out... alone. She ends up at another guys house. All of a sudden you get that funny feeling that something ain't right....TABANCA.

WHINE 2D SIDE

First flyer for the year...something colorful and sexy. I like this composition and contemplated making it a personal project cause I could have done alot more with the elements if I had time too play with it, but nonetheless I'm still digging it. Which made me think...can a flyer be viewed as art?

Obesity Courts Death

So many health risk are associated with Obesity, and it's funny how as an individual you do this too yourself. Not consciously of course...it's not like you sit around and plan on being fat, most of the times it just happens. You get too comfortable have a few extra bites and next thing you know your over weight...trust me I know. The health risk involved can ultimately kill you. This piece is about, your own slow decent to the end while death waits patiently.

The Odyssey

My Font selection skills is definitely improving. I'm focusing more on that right now, instead of focusing so much on the blending aspect of the image. I'm more concerned with finding an entire image that pertains to the concept of the party, than making it from scratch.

The Client requested, the 2001 : Space Odyssey look. A very minimal approach, reminiscent of the movie.
