Recipe for terrorizing your neighbors kids...

Check out my latest design for Black Market Bikes. This is a 24x18" poster folded down to a brochure. This is the fastest print job I've done. 1 full day turnaround from creating the explosion to laying out copy and sending out to print.

Also stay tune for my first bike sticker kit and new web site design for Black Market.

Riding bikes and designing for them = Awesomeness.

Brain Power Level : LOW

Brain Power Level : LOW, originally uploaded by Susan Morales.

This week has been an awesome work week. With six days ( I do mean 6) of basically 24hrs a day of work my designer power level is dangerously low.

Design goodness this week included designs for web banners, candle packaging, wireframes and software ui. I'm still pushing pixels and loving it.

I Heart design in all shapes and forms. :-)

Old School...

working, originally uploaded by Susan Morales.

Lately I've been working on some illustrations and have been using a combination of Abode Illustrator and old school sketching. Today I find myself on the drawing table enjoying the good old fashion pencil and paper format and had to share.

Supplies:
Overly priced drawing board propped up w/a block, .5 KOHL-I-HARDTMUTH pencil, Ottlite portable white light, rulers, and Bristol Smooth paper

Drawing makes me happy.

Irritated!

My mind is EVERYWHERE today. I can't seem to put any new piece of art together. This is how I feel today - mind is going in every direction. Time for a break.
