One of my main goals as an artist is to add beauty to the world. Sometimes it’s in the form of something that’s been thought-out for a long time and then created with great effort, while other times it’s done in a pretty random fashion.
Below is a Mexican Sprite bottle that I decorated with a mosaic of aluminum pieces cut from cans last summer. Just thought it would be fun to share.
As far as I know, there is only 1 regret I managed to generate during my college years at Arizona State University- I would have liked to have seen more guest lectures.
The university managed to book amazing humanitarians, artists, and scientists to stop in for a bit and speak with students, but I always felt I had too much work to be able to take a break. Cool enough, a friend told me about a crew called TED (Technology Entertainment & Design) that hosts talks done by creative folks and then posts them online each week. I’ve been enjoying them and catching up.
Here’s a few of my favorites so far:
Do Schools Kill Creativity? - Funny and brilliant talk by Sir Ken Robinson
My cousin, Brandon Bethancourt, has a music project called Alaska In Winter and had a rad banner made for him by DW Design (below). I really liked it so I checked out the DW Design portfolio and was surprised by the really cool vintage-anime graphic work. I’ve posted some of them, and the rest can be seen HERE.
