I did a two-page interview in Advanced Photoshop magazine (issue 33) that broadly covers the use of Photoshop and Flash in design and illustration work, a few pros and cons of the software (heavy on the pros, it’s a bit of an Adobe promo-piece). I was actually a rather hard article to put together – Adobe is ubiquitous in the design space now, they do it all. The Creative Suite is comprised of Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, Dreamweaver, Flash, Acrobat… you can’t really design these days without this software – consequently, it’s hard to make comparisons when there isn’t anything to contrast it to.

A few of my illustrations are featured, the H-Lounge UI layout, and H-Lounge avatars are shown off in a nice light. It’s crazy to see them stacked like so. A few other artists in that graphic/vector style space are also featured.

Thanks again to Adam Smith for the writeup. (Click image for full-size version)

I just finished up this logo and silkscreened poster for Gabriel Lopez – a San Francisco based photographer and designer. He’s doing a 10-year featurette on one completely awesome labrador who’s getting on in years. Silkscreening is a great way to reproduce prints very quickly and cheaply… and the imperfections add to the style.

The logo’s been shipped off in .eps format – expect to be able to buy your own Miles coffe cups from CafePress soon.
