The U.S. media is complicit. Tomorrow is a blatant abuse of government funds and power just to stroke the ego of an incompetent president with an even more unqualified cabinet.

I hope it literally rains on his parade. #NoKings

Abstract editorial art, neon colors with a mesh warp depicting a tennis net

Serving up some abstract thoughts on design. Good modern design weaves together disparate elements into something cohesive and impactful.

What companies do you consider to be leading the modern design industry today? 🎾 #DesignLife #Abstract #Editorial #DesignInspiration

Eat, sleep, breathe, draw D&D. This is Gourdwin Chopín, Lv 6 Wood Elf, pleasure to meet your acquaintance.

He enjoys foraging ingredients for his next meal and always has a pinch of salt on hand.

This week marks 8 years with my company, Siege Media.

In April 2017, I moved to CA with no job or prospects, but Siege gave me an interview. Today I am a Senior Art Director working with some of the best designers in the country.

Thanks for celebrating with me ✌️

My coworkers and I participate in an internal, monthly design challenge. The category this month was to design a word or phrase with custom lettering.

Challenged myself to animate something in two hours. This was the result.

Tools used: Adobe Illustrator, After Effects, iPhone 13 Pro

Krabby Pokémon walk cycle. This one broke my brain, and I added about 4 extra hours adding a proper rigging structure using the DUIK plugin.

Just reached 10k followers on #Dribbble! It’s wild to me that my work has been viewed over 9M times all from the comfort of my 630 sq ft apartment.

I’ve realized after 12+ years in the field that I really enjoy mixed media design.

This image was achieved with four different skill sets:
1. Photography
2. Lightroom editing
3. Vector illustration
4. Collaging via Photoshop

I’ve convinced myself I don’t have enough time for a round of golf, but I can spend three hours illustrating a golfer and not bat an eye 🤦🏻‍♂️⛳️

The irony of highlighting the tragedy of the LA fires and the thousands of homes lost and then immediately showing an Allstate commercial. #TheOscars

Sitting on top of the world ✌️

In 2024 I designed schedule posters for 5 University of San Diego sports.

To highlight the excitement and vibrancy of USD’s culture, I decided to infuse these print graphics with pieces of San Diego’s premier offerings: Sand, Surf, and Sun 🏖️ 🌊 ☀️

Hell yeah. It would honest make for a dope creative space. Coffee + art

Did you know the hexadecimal code for #c0ffee is this ugly green? Did you know $0.75 for alternative milks is a crime?

It’s Vitamin C-eason, and I don’t like the amount of people coughing around me.

R/conservative has not mentioned this situation at all. Talk about an echo chamber.

Oddly enough I’ve never given FBM a chance and I’m really digging this album so far. Thanks for the rec!

Definitely recognize “Epic” 🔥

Added him to my queue for my flight! Looking forward to it 🙂‍↕️

Spoken like a true collector. How about this: what is your most-played album from last year? I’m into most everything.

Many of my friends developed a new obsession during COVID. For me, it was collecting vinyl records.

5+ years later and I’ve almost maxed out my IKEA Kallax shelf. While this sounds like a good thing, it’s led to the dreaded choice paralysis.

What’s your must-have record?
