NEW THEME

Please excuse the mess for a few days while I work the kinks out of this new theme.  If you run across any issues please post them in this thread, thanks.

THINKSTOCK vs. JP33

A collage put together for ThinkCorp a new artist collective by Getty Images and Thinkstock.com

With an open creative brief and access to all of Thinkstock’s 40 bajillion images artists can create almost anything they choose.  I did a little exploring, style-wise, as far as my normal work in concerned.

For These Mean Streets From Cali to New York
A photograph taken after a huge snow storm in Colorado a few years back.  24 inches of snow came down overnight…it was the most beautiful thing you could imagine.

a couple of new photos – one is dear to me

great track by full crate and mar and an even greater video

i picked this book up the other day – a diary of photos one might call it – by the legendary marketer, stanley marcus (of neiman marcus)
it’s filled with wonderful photos of every day life…a small glimpse into his mind, if you will.  i highly suggest picking it up if you’re a photography fan.

credit goes to stanley’s daughter jerrie marcus smith and granddaughter allison v. smith for putting the project together.  allison happens to be an amazing photographer herself and a flickr friend of mine.  check her work out here and here

chromeo’s night by night is my new anthem. i love these dudes – their whole new 80’s/techno/dance vibe is pretty sweet.

i’ll be bumping (listening at my computer) for at least another month straight.

Neiman Marcus Insite is what takes up most of my working hours during the day.  I handle the graphic direction, design and Flash animations/interaction.  New issues drop every 2 weeks – between meetings and all the other corporate nuances throughout the day there isn’t a ton of time to finish each issue.  Sometimes it’s a blast and other times it’s a struggle to finish, although not enough to complain about.

The 4-Star Classic

A design I worked up almost a year ago now but still want to get printed up as a shirt.  Old school vibe with the faux tweed and (all) stars.
