Featured!

Well, it's a good thing I've already said fashion's a point of interest to me. Because this would have come outta left field. (What exactly does that mean?)

One of my illustrated designs was featured on Bravotv.com's site. An online challenge for Project Runway was to "reinvent the business suit" and I had something to submit.

Definitely nice to have a little illustration shown on their site. And hey, I get a Tresemme package? Thanks!

Fashion Week

Okay, okay. I should come clean.

I've cited that I'm into all things visually/conceptually interesting, and yes, that does include the world of fashion. And why not(Cue: Male defending an interest in fashion discussion). Clothing IS a vehicle to expression. It's a process of choices and assembling to express a style and idea, andso; an art form. There's a concept and there's the skill to materialize it. I think my interest stems from the process of character-designing:Characters on paper need a memorable, iconic look to be distintive. Fashion designers strive to produce the same.

So, a noteworthy showing from NY Fashion Week for me was Christian Siriano. The kid's in his 20's a crazy prodigy.

Labor(ous) Day

I fill my days with work. And at the end of the day, I...I'm cramming the last bit of work in. One day, I'm gonna learn better.
It's Labor Day. So today I experience the joy of waking up at 2 in the afternoon. Not a joy I hope to return to frequently, but kinda nice none the less. I've got to close the Fedex Kinkos store at 10 tonight, and miraculously I'm out by 10:28pm. Typically, I'd still be helping that last customer or finishing up that last job....but hey, maybe I am learning.
And then I realize there's work to be done for Home and Body Co. Hmmm. Well, I'd better down this 5-Hour Energy and get to work. Just when the end of the day was so close....
