Domingo Gigante–Un cubo de emulsión que es un poco como una tetera?

Un cubo de emulsión que es un poco como una tetera? Hey, a veces me gustan las pequeñas innovaciones mejor que las grandes. Se puede verter la emulsión mejor – más suavemente, con menos lío, y usted también puede hacerlo con una sola mano. Tener el cubo cerca de la torre de laca cuchara y…

Sponge Bob and His Friends

I’m always keeping my eyes open for cool or impressive techniques for shirts. I scan the attendees and the walls of the booths. There were three in the Rutland ink booth that caught my eye. The Sponge Bob print has a creative use of “blister base” used to portray Bob in all his spongey glory.…

Tea Time?

An emulsion bucket that is a bit like a teapot? Hey, I sometimes like the little innovations better than the big ones. You can pour the emulsion better–more smoothly, with less mess, and you can also do it with only one hand. Having the bucket close to the scoop coater and pouring it slowly and…

Throw Way Way Back Thursday

This screen is the first frame I made for the first commercial job I ever did, for Ken Brown Designs.  The image is from an ad from an old joke catalog, for some weird ass face paint. I exposed the image with a 150 watt light bulb and a pie plate reflector. Instead of a…

Misprint Monday–Spellcheck is Not Always Your Friend

In one case, the art must have been “spellchecked” and it got corrected to be spelled “academics.” Sometimes your write when your wrong, if…
