This is a tumblelog, kinda like a blog but with short-form, mixed-media posts with stuff I like. Scroll down a bit to start reading, or a bit more to read more about me.
A drawing in-progress. It’s a drawing of a cloud/explosion in graphite on black paper, so the photo is not the best, but I like where it’s going. Now I want to make a huge, huge version of it.

Exclusive, heartbreaking photos from the Lorraine motel on the day Martin Luther King died. (see more here)
Pictured: Theatrice Bailey attempts to clean blood from the balcony, hours after the 6 p.m. shooting.
“I don’t know if there were official people around taking notes and pictures and things like that. Nobody was there when we were there. And the fact that the blood was still on the floor, and this man is actually putting it in a jar … When you see a picture like that, God, it feels invasive.”

If I could tell you one thing about getting involved in design, it would be to have passion. Have undying, unending passion for what it is you’re doing.”
~ Jon Kolko, director at Frog Design, a global innovation and design firm.
Here’s to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes … the ones who see things differently — they’re not fond of rules, and they have no respect for the status quo. … You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but the only thing you can’t do is ignore them because they change things. … They push the human race forward, and while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius, because the people who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the ones who do.” ~ Apple Commercial, 1997
