Minotaur Logo

I did not draw the image above. As I often do when I create a logo, I search the web for images and then put them together using Photoshop. This is a logo for the Minnesota Minotaurs from Basketsim.com.

Update: I also created this alternate logo for the team as well.

Basketball Phrase

When I play basketball I subscribe to the Pat Riley philosophy of 'no easy layups'. In other words, I'll foul a player rather than give up an easy basket. Anyone who has played basketball with me has most likely had the following conversation with me:
Me - "Did he score?"
Other player - "No."
Me - "Good D!"

I thought that conversation might make a good T-shirt so I came up with the image above. (picture on the front of the shirt, words on the back) I've had the picture for years but never got around to making the T-shirt. Who knows maybe someday I'll submit it to a website like snorgtees.com.

IF Clumsy

Giraffes look naturally clumsy. Put one on roller blades and it only looks more so.

IF Confined

Sometimes I feel confined by my cubicle at work and just need to escape.

IF Renewal

I combined the sun and moon and yin and yang for this week's Illustration Friday topic "Renewal". I'm also attempting to renew my resolution to post more drawings on my blog in 2010.

Happy New Year! I hope your 2010 is better than your 2009.

P.S. I'm saying "twenty-ten" instead of "two thousand-ten". New decade, new pronunciation.

Happy Holidays

Been a while since I've posted, thought I'd at least get one more post in before Christmas. Since 2009 seems to be the year of Android I created this image to celebrate the season.

Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, and Happy New Year!

IF Pattern

I stumbled across a contest on the web to create your own Mountain Dew can. Being a Mt. Dew drinker I gave it a shot and came up with my own Mt. Dew logo. I'm reusing that logo to create a pattern for this week's Illustration Friday topic on "Pattern". (click on image for larger view)
