I'm proud to announce that I am part of the CreativeLive Coloring Book!

For the holiday season, CreativeLive is giving away a free coloring book download featuring art by Chris Piascik, Bonnie Christine, Robert Mahar, Tina Harkin and a ton more.

Adult coloring books are so great to help clear your head and focus on something other than what gifts you're supposed to be buying. So click the link below and download a copy to print and color!

Chalk Wall Mural - Photo Week 2015

This year at CreativeLive's 2nd annual Photo Week, I was asked to make a mural to liven up the chalk wall that lives in the offices of the studio.

With chalk pen in hand I had creative freedom of the design and decided to go with potted plants. I figured something that is naturally still would be a better choice than an action scene.

Below are a few more angles and various stages of the drawing. Enjoy!

Sorry, no time lapse video for this one.

I recently decorated and painted the Podcast Room at CreativeLive's Seattle studio. Matt McMonagle and myself were asked to make the room sound great for podcasts as well as art up the walls a bit.

Here is what we created.

The books were purchased from Half Priced Books with their awesome "books by the yard" deal. We estimated we would need about 80 books and by the end of it had used exactly that.

The total project probably took about 10 hours over the course of 2 days.

Also, the great tunes were provided by Jamie Blake, whom we also work with. You can download the track on his bandcamp.
