Fruit crate typography will almost never disappoint!

Tile type at the Belvidere mansion in Claremore, OK (my second home town)

One of my favorite spots to visit in Claremore is the gun museum and more specifically the Colt 45 section. I could spend hours looking at the detailing that has been hand engraved in these 6 shooters.

This may seem a little odd, but I find these old Colt 45s absolutely beautiful and captivating. It’s a weird new obsession with 6 shooters specifically. I don’t want to shoot them and I don’t really condone casual gun handling, but damn these are beautifully crafted pieces of history.

Greenpoint Goodies!

Inadvertently explored Greenpoint this weekend and found some sweet sign and work truck type!

Yo! Check out my whip! My SUPER DUPER WHIP!

Not in Greenpoint but still some cool neon!

This gas truck also had the same type HUGE on the side of it, but I couldn’t get a good shot. Love the two tone drop shadow, and there was amazing pin striping details on the letter shadows that you can’t quite see here.

“Popular” for a reason!

NEW WORK - PAXICO EP

admin — Thu, 03 Jun 2010 04:35:16 +0000

I take a pause from my Polaroid cellphone blogging to share a fun new project that I just did for Paxico Via Mexico (who else right?). This is my low-budget/no-budget packaging solution that I did for them. Black and white print on yellow stock paper inserted into plastic sleeves. I’ll post pictures of the final product soon so you can really get a feel for it. Also did their myspace theme to fall in line with their new EP! Listen to their music, it’s awesome!!!

I can’t imagine what kind of “mist” this would be, but hey if it helps then who cares!!

Neon Bible

If you are having a crazy wild night on the town this sign will attempt to keep you in line!

And the real reason I named this post Neon Bible… The word of the street is The Arcade Fire is releasing a new single soon. We eagerly anticipate! http://pitchfork.com/news/38818-new-arcade-fire-single-out-soon/

Very uncommon drop shadow on the top right (not that these guys put much thought into anyway)

Expert subway ad alteration!

admin — Mon, 19 Apr 2010 23:11:12 +0000

I consider the altering of subway advertisement a fine art, and mostly it’s distasteful. However, every once and a while you get some beautifully hilarious stuff like this gem:

Too long. New Goals.

So I have a theory about the camera on my cellphone. While others seem to be updating their phones so that the pictures are like 20 mega pixels, I personally enjoy the lo-fi aesthetic of my crappy cellphone! I consider it the polaroid of cellphones! Also, I had much better luck with this blog when i was mostly uploading photos, so in hopes to update more regularly I’m going to do a bit of photo blogging for now!!

Starting now….

The day last summer that the sky started to melt! Apparently it’s a Mammatus cloud formation.
