Personal Logo/Business Card Concept. Second draft. Hoping for custom letterpress printing. Still working on logo details and color applications.

Personal Logo/Business Card Concept. Rough draft stage. It’s pretty silly having my hat and glasses (custom designed for generalization) as a logo, but it’s also sort of brilliant in a way. Once I achieve super-amazing-freelancer status before the next decade, I’ll go and have an army of pricey letterpress business cards for the heck of it.
A little poster after my typeface-hunting spree.
First of a simple series of the trends put into my design projects these days.

I got yelled at, but the lighting was pretty awesome. Shot in Georgetown with my friend’s Olympus E-P1.

My official design Tumblr?
Yup! I thought I’d start sometime in 2012, but it doesn’t hurt to start now. Minus my current lack of particular web designing skills,by the fact that my sloppy monogram “logo” up in the corner there is still in its development stage both in color and clarity, and in knowing that pretty much everything is still visually under construction (check out that gorgeous stock-image background), I have to say that it does feel pretty exciting to start somewhat of a portfolio via Tumblr of all websites.
Once my work’s good enough for the big leagues, though, I’ll switch over to Behance.
But for now, I’ll make this place a public stash for my work, creative thoughts, and personal progress as a designer. Hopefully, I’ll get to see my work get much better throughout the year.
