T-Shirt Design for deviantART's Cute Monsters Contest

Hello Friends!

I know, I know, I know it's been a while AGAIN. Such a surprise for me right? Anyway, I'm really going to try this time to keep updating all of you on my artistic endeavors.

So, today I finished my T-Shirt design for the deviantART Cute Monsters Design Challenge.  I'm really happy with the outcome.  If you like my design, please consider voting for it.  Every vote counts :)


I really liked my design with the stripes on the sleeves better, but the contest rules state: Limit your design to only two print areas.  The front, back, sides, and sleeve are each considered separate print areas.  So since that would technically be three print areas, I had to submit the design without the stripes, but here is what it looks like with the stripes:


It's not a huge difference, but I think it's a really nice detail that makes the design pop!

Please Please Please if you like the design vote for me and share with your friends.  Thank you all so much for your continuous support :)

New Website - Big City Burgers & Atomic Wings

As you may know already I design websites for a variety of different businesses.  The most recent website I had the pleasure of creating was the Big City Burgers & Atomic Wings website.  They have delicious wings and wing eating contests.  The burgers, although I have yet to try one, I have heard are very good as well.  So take a look at their website and if you are in the area of Westhampton Beach stop on in and have a bite to eat! :)

Sad Little Men - Samuel Bennett

I think it's important to showcase the impressive work of my peers,  especially those who I have known for as long as Sam Bennett.

Last week I had the pleasure of watching Samuel Aaron Bennett's newest film on YouTube.  A short film called Sad Little Men.  I set my expectations high, as I have always been a fan of his work and knew going into it that I would enjoy it.  Sad Little Men was utterly brilliant.  The cinematography was absolutely stunning and the score was beautifully written.  Now I am no film connoisseur, but I can tell when something just looks and sounds "right." Everything technical about the film to me was perfect.  My only complaint was the length. The story felt rushed and I think it needed to unfold in a more gradual manner.  It was in no doubt compelling, but in my opinion this film could have easily been a full length motion picture.  I thought the story was so vast to be crammed into such a short timeline.  Anyway, I am sure there are several reasons for this and regardless the film is definitely worth watching.  Sam Bennett is an incredible writer, director, and composer.  So if you haven't had the chance to see any of Sam's work yet, take a look now and make sure you check out his other work on his YouTube channel:
