Gary is a large guy in a small world. Although he is rather large, he is very much afraid of most things. Including the small “humans” in which he shares this strange world with.

Fun illustration for an article by Kara Deyermenjian on her medium site. "Humankind has an infatuation with “the chase.” Everyday, people are in hot pursuit of various things: money, love, tasty snacks, acceptance, admiration, fame, sex, drugs... you name it, they’ll chase it."
The Original Avenger in Ale form. Justice never tasted so good!
This generation can sometimes be described as the Phone Generation. The all encompassing digital world has become synonymous with everyday life.
Arguably the strongest Avenger and Ale in the MCU. God of Thunder and delicious beverages.
The basis of this project lies in two concepts: Loneliness and war... both destructive by nature, but not in exactly the same way. Humans are social creatures with the unique ability to empathize with their genetic counterparts -- and when this need for social connectivity is unfulfilled, it leaves a person feeling defeated, lonely and conflicted.
War typically involves the battle of one group against another with the potential for grave physical loss. The concept of a "Lonely Warrior" is a sad one -- a character both at odds with himself, and others.
There is a lot of pressure to figure out what to do after college. What better way to represent this than a maze of mutant, colorful worms with confused wormy faces crawling all up on each other? Not only are there a lot of worms in the parking lot on a rainy day (competition), but there are many different dirt paths a eager little worm could take. What's a worm to do!? Hopefully you will WORMLY appreciate this print in all of its slimy glory.
Although I don't consider myself a dancer (I took the Fat Joe song "Lean Back" to heart and don't dance... I just pull up my pants and do the rockaway) I do find it interesting how calculated each step in a dance routine is. I also consider music to be a big part of my life... I'm constantly putting headphones over my larger-than-average-sized head -- not just to deter annoying coworkers from interrupting me -- but also because I truly appreciate the mood-enhancing elixir that is a good song. It's safe to say the Boogie Monster dances enough to make up the absence of Fat Joe and myself on the dance floor, and I hope his moves put a little pep in your step today.
This is grumpy Gerald. Grumpy Gerald posts things on the Internet to pretend like his life isn't turning into a stinky pile of dung. Don't be like Gerald. This was another editorial illustration I did for an article written by the super talented Kara Deyermenjian. Check out her work over at https://medium.com/@kdeyerme
So you want the SCOOP on this piece, eh? (get it… ‘cause they’re scoops of ice cream...?) Anyway, I like ice cream, I like faces, and I like combining the two. Some of these scoops realize they are about to get eaten, and some do not. The black and pink scoops have realized their fate, while the blue and yellow scoops continue to play it cool (get it… ‘cause they’re scoops of ice cream, and therefor cold…?) I digress – I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream… and when your fate is either to melt or get eaten, I bet you’d be screaming too.
Sometimes EDM (Electronic Dance Music) gets... intergenre (Is that a word? let's pretend it is, and it means the mixing of musical genres). This occurred one night when EDM went out and met Hip Hop, an exotic specimen at the club. Despite not having much in common, the unlikely pair ended up canoodling. This led to the birth of a type of music called TRAP (a funky mix of EDM and rap) -- and this is the type of music that inspired me to bring this little guy, Trap Trap, into existence.
Trap Trap's large eyes/speakers allow for deafening hybrid rap/EDM tunes to be heard from miles away, to the dismay of many… but to the delight of Trap Trap and his squad members Cassette Head and Boogie Monster (please check out the other musically-inclined creatures in my play section to see what I mean).
Oftentimes my generation struggles with deciding on a major and/or career path. You are expected to decide and commit, essentially putting all your eggs in one basket, in a short span of time. Sometimes this can lead to feelings of uncertainty and regret.
This concept is represented in this piece most notably by the dangly thing on the cap you wear while graduating (that's what that's called right... the dangly thing?) You are thrown into the real world, dangling, nervous, bushy-tailed and bright-eyed only to find that the real world isn't always served on a silver platter (cue moments of panic and regret).
You might have to back-track, or even start over before you find your way. However, if you find yourself dangling with a dumb-ass look on your face after graduation, don't fret... you will figure it out.
Gameboy Link setting off to rescue Gameboy princess Zelda... You think this is a game, boy? This was a fun challenge to turn a regular gameboy into a recognizable little hero. I hope to continue this into a small series by incorporating more characters in a similar way.
Nowadays everyone’s got an excuse. This concept is represented with this one color editorial design/illustration about skipping work in the digital age. These two computers are telling each other why they can't make it into work. Formulating a valid excuse is a tricky task, especially in the age of technology.
Have you ever skipped work and then checked in at a tequila bar, forgetting you were supposed to be home sick with the flu? Yeah… me neither.
This is a fun one color screen print that shows that music never stops. I enjoy listening to music whenever I design or create something as I believe it coincides with my creativity. This print is an example of what happens when music and creativity come together.
This piece is a fun take on the nature of yeti's. Yeti's tend to get a bad rap -- commonly also referred to as "Abominable Snowmen." In case you were wondering, abominable means "very bad, or unpleasant" and "causing moral revulsion." Harsh, am I right?
A lot of creatures, myself included, can be misunderstood. In my opinion, yeti's really just wanna have fun. The moral of the story is as follows: if you happen to see one in your backyard, offer to make that playful guy a snow cone and prepare to unlock new levels of #FriendshipGoals.
This one is pretty self-explanatory but let me spell it out for you. If farming spider goats makes you happy… do that. If listening to Dashboard Confessional makes you happy, well that’s odd but, sure, do that. If creating things like this print makes you happy (as it did for me), do that.
Life is too short to be anything but happy. If you aren’t, it is within your reach to become so. Ladies, If a guy ever comes up to you at a bar and drops the line “you’d be prettier if you smile" he’s probably right... but also feel free to walk swiftly away because he sounds like a tool.
All Hail Grump Truck! You do not want to be in the path of this beast of a machine! I had the great opportunity to illustrate an article written by the talented Kara Deyermenjian. This article was mostly about road rage and how we as the general public need to channel our inner Grump Truck and cool it. Give it a gander over at https://medium.com/@kdeyerme
This illustration turned screenprint, consisting of just two colors, once again features our token misunderstood friend the Yeti.
Didn't I tell you to invite him in for a snow cone? (If you have no idea what I'm talking about, refer to the description for "Yeti's Just Want to Have Fun.")
This is a piece I designed while feeling quite ill. A bit darker that my other work, it represents how I was feeling as bronchitis wreaked havoc on my once-chiseled body and I lost eight pounds of hard-earned muscle in a week. Feeling weak and feeble, this cryptic fellow began to take shape. Then I started feeling better, so I ate some jellybeans and drew a puppy.
Everyone has heard of the phrase "Don't cry over spilt milk." Other ways to say this include: "You're going to die anyway, why worry?" "Don't sweat the small stuff," and "life isn't an emergency." I illustrated this concept with this fun design. It's one thing if your Mom tells you not to cry over spilt milk , but it's another when the ACTUAL GODDAMN GLASS OF MILK tells you not to cry over it. Seriously, get over it. Even the milk doesn't give a crap if it's spilt. Grow up.
This little monster manages to sneak into my backpack where ever I travel. And to my surprise he always brings the right gear for the location. How does he know where we are going before I do?
I think the title says it all….
