Would You Have Your Lawn Mowed by This Company?

Although I was immensely satisfied with this project (after Joc fiddled with the blades of grass to make them look less like chopsticks), this entry was almost immediately disqualified upon sunrise in the East following the night that I posted this. In retrospect, I should have stuck with the verdant greens of a water-guzzling fescue lawn. Perhaps the unmowed appearance of the W put them off too.

Ed Fella Poster

The Mandala

This was a color meditation; I tried to do a theme with images and couldn’t make it work visually, got too wrapped up in the meaning of things and forgot about their visual values.

I also changed the values of the colors by superimposing white and black washes. I enjoyed working with the colors.

When I uploaded these, I realized that the sizes appear to be way off

Guess I’ll hear from their web master

Zippity Do Dah

My first animation. This is fun! If you could stop the pink balloon you would see a white rubber ducky mistakenly stamped on the first balloon.

Ace of Life

Pink gives the medical image a rosy aspect.

On Valentine’s Day 2006, several web geeks searched the Web for breakups to create The Dumpster, a map of postings from blogs that included the phrases “broke up” or “dumped me.”
