  • Lately

    Last week was, to say the least, intense. And it probably seems as though I’ve lapsed into another brief (unintentional) quiet spell. While that was not a conscious decision, things happen and so it goes. This week is shaping up to be similarly busy, but in a much better way (hopefully). While this piece still…

  • More Progress

    Somehow this week flew by and while I got a lot accomplished and checked a lot of the boxes off of my list, there’s always more to do. Including that odd piece I started last weekend after an intense week of non-creative things. Today it’s gorgeous and sunny (and warm), but I’d really rather have…

What do you do with discarded sketches or concept work from creative projects? Do you archive them, or incorporate them into some sort of presentation? Or are they simply casualties of…

  • More from the cutting room floor

    Picking up from my recent post about sharing overlooked sketches and process work, below is another installment from the cutting room floor. These are iterations from work on my response piece for Spark, series 11 Have you heard of Spark? It’s a quarterly collaborative art event that’s been ongoing for several years now. Organized by…

  • A week in your life

    Building on my recent talk of sketchbooks and organizational systems, now seems like an appropriate time to share a series which outlines a week in the lives of thirteen artists, designers and thinkers. Organized by I.D. Magazine to demonstrate the versatility of Moleskine’s new folio collection of sketchbooks, the series was exhibited this past April…

  • Cutting room floor

    Here’s a sample of recent work from the cutting room floor so to speak… What are YOU working on these days, dear readers?

  • Sneak Peek

    People have been asking me what I’ve been working on lately, so here’s a quick snapshot of one of the projects on my desk: What are YOU working on these days??
