UPCOMING ART SHOW

There is an upcoming art show planned at my new place of work. The talented artists whose skills are put to task creating artwork for various types of apparel, are getting together to make some real stuff happen. That explains the title of the show. We do tend to, day in, day out think about art as what the styleguide dictates... what sales will allow ... what the reports say is in fashion. We don't really know the true look of each other's personal style.
So, time to think OUTSIDE the STYLEGUIDE.

ALRIGHT ALREADY

I have to get back to posting my own stuff, events, work ideas and what not...
that actually have to do with me ...

LIL' TRACHTENBURG

YES this blog is just a little too damned girlie. Well this doesn't help...

THANKS TO Jyvonne Haskin
I was introduced to the TRACHTENBURG  FAMILY SLIDESHOW PLAYERS... these is them-


well... that was them a while ago.
As you would expect... and as I have said before... I find out about things when they are on the way out, the band has broken up, the hype has fizzled out, everyone says "I liked them before they fell off", and it's time is done. And more to the point -- the novelty of a cute little kid singing with her pop can't last that long can it? not that you'd get sick of it, but the kid won't be a little kid anymore. and then THAT SH-- IS OVER, SON ! but if we're lucky

click the picture... check out the link


so on to the TRACHTENBURGS THE NEXT PHASE

I get it - they're setting up for the next thing that the lil' one can run with  for the next few years. rachel phase 2.

OBSERVATION

Up until that last post... this has been a very girly blog.
That's okay, because boys are icky.

what are you gonna' do.

Then again there are like 2-3 visitors per month here
SO WHAT DOES IT MATTER? Maybe somewhere down the line this will catch on and these earlier posts
may seem an interesting look back. Now on to more of the girly-ness

MORE URBAN OUTFITTER work

Here's another piece of art that I worked on, found on the Urban Outfitter's site.   This was originally for the ALCHEMIC line.  But I see it was made for Urban Outfiitters.

URBAN WOLF

I've come across another URBAN OUTFITTER's design that I worked on. I was never told about what sold and what didn't, so it's odd to just see something there like that.

URBAN BREAKER TEE

URBAN breaker tagger Tee

this one was fun to do and interesting... and thanks to "things" it went nowhere.  I'll have to resurrect the character. I hate working a long time on a thing like this and wasting good art.
