Ok, I swear I'm gonna start making this a weekly thing. School has started and were racing right out of the gates. Lots of amazing things to see and do and hear. Some of which I will post up here for your viewing pleasure (If anyone even bothers with this blog). I started taking a Typography class and I am finding it so interesting and creative. One week in and were already creating our own modular typefaces. I call it
New Crave, Its a play on New Wave because it reminds me of something I would associate with club culture or something "hip" like that (ha). The other class I'm taking is Communication Studio I, also lots of typography and layout design.
I recently procured a job at
Next Adventure in Portland...great outdoor store that prides itself on great new and used gear at really affordable prices...not joking, some things are a complete steal here. The staff is great, its very relaxed and allows me to work full-time and go to school. Safe to say I won't be doing anything else this year but learning and working. So here it goes, these are somethings I'm into hard right now.
The guys over at
Public school, put up some of the most visually compelling, make you want to be a better artist work.
The food carts in Portland are amazing and cheap and I have been trying to pick them off one by one. my favorite is the
New Taste of India...there all so good though!
Command Save is a blog dedicated to the Graphic Design department at PSU and has tons of great work and imagery to peruse while your bored at work.
And finally, I've been re-listening and re-listening to the Beatles Magic Mystery tour Album, and cannot get enough of the tripped out melodies...especially
Blue Jay Way
I'll be putting some of my work up here from classes soon. Expect more.
