Recent haps..

Just finished up my first month as art director for Pipe Dreams Surf Co. Its a pretty interesting job designing to sell to a broader audience instead of painting or designing just to sell it to one person. Heres what else been going on..
Went to the Hypersquads last performance with Jason Ulep at the helm called "Renaissance". It was a pretty good show with chilli dog action at the intermission. A week later we hit up Jasons go away get off the island BBQ.



Dropped the Kam heads at Pipe Dreams. Onipa'a flags sold out. Current flag still available

Hit up the B Mack concert for Valentines day. Im a pretty big R&B fan so it was pretty mean to hear him sing in person. His voice was unreal, cd quality all day, no cracks grumbles or mumbles in his notes. The bass guitarist was hella funny. For a big dude he had the most energy, I never knew you could get down so hard to "Anytime". Nesian Nine and some other junk group opened up. Nesian Nine was mean and the homie on the keyboard had the synthesizer going on!
Caught my neighber Ziggy on the big screen.

The man's entrance


Picked up a bike last week. Too big to be doing all kine tricks on a 20" and the fixie is too owwee so I picked up a 24" cruiser. Met up with the gang one day at A'ala to shoot the cruise.

Heading back to the cars through China Town.
Did some print work for Affiliated located in Shea's Luxury Detail in Aiea. Design was hand done by Skarz AF.

Hit up a UH baseball game this past weekend. 2 run 9th to put UH up over Oregon State was pretty exciting. The only shitty part of the game was when a kid got hit in the throat by a foul ball a couple sections over from us.

"I pound nuggets" - famous words by K.Cuyo

My coworker Bri is always talking about food at work (she knows the menus from all the dopest spots by heart) and she brought up the Mc Gangbang one day. Not able to even think about finishing one, me and my other coworker Josh decided to make our own creation. And Walla.. the McNugget bang was born. We decided to wait a few weeks till his last day of work to celebrate with one and here it is. A Mcdouble with 4 nuggets. It costs about $3.50 a person but its well worth it.

heh!?

Havent posted in a while been super busy. Got a new job screen printing and became Art Director for Pipe Dreams Surf Co. (eehhemm.. Hilton store coming in June..eeehhhemm..) but I had to blog about this one. First off im no Photoshop master by far but I take some pride in what I do, so when I see someone biting I get pretty upset. Heres the pics..

I wont drop names of the nightclub or promoters but I think this is a nono for designing. First off dont blatently steal images. Second off dont take an image from someone and then send it to them like you made it. We need more originality in the world especially on the local scene. Enough ba bum bum, ba bum bum, ba bum bum, ba bum bum. But in these times I guess it would be called a "remix".
