these are some design peice that i really liked. the design of this speaker is very cool, with representations of exaggerated musicians. this is one thing that we covered, his very free hand in design. i also took well to this very classic modern back cover of a bands cd. the use of photography and design. his works are very calming and fun. 
Q: When did art really bloom for you, and what inspires you to be an artist? as a student in design, its good to see that you are a learned artist,
Q: Your Fine arts run from very graphic, to life like, to abstraction...is this style of hand made works repeated into the way you work with graphic design, or does it all come from the computer? What artists/ works motivate you most? What is it about their work that you identify with and how does this translate into your own work?
understanding one aspect of art allows you to enter another in my mind...When did you start really working in design, and why?
A: Art, or rather “the impulse to create” as I like to call it, began for me when I was young. I would draw, doodle, construct, and attempt to build my own tree fort at the age of 7. I very much enjoy the zone I find myself in as I become immersed in a project. All track of time is lost when I let my intuition be my designing guide. As for inspiration, I tap into nature, reality, dreams, forms, shapes, clever saying, witty humor, pretty much anything that makes me take a second look. When I take a second look I then think to myself what compelled me to do so. I find this to be an important aspect of what I do.

A: My graphic design aesthetic can be catered. It can be abstract, it can be modern, it can be Art Nuevo. I believe that a lot of people get hung up on the fact that graphic design does not simply mean doing work on the computer. Graphic design is design that manifests itself graphically. Whether it is a photograph with typographic elements, hand-cut lettering scanned onto a computer, photomontage, etc. I consider this all to be graphic design.
I am inspired by work by El Lissitzky, Saul Bass, Kadinsky, Moholy-Nagy, and Will Burtin to name a few. I am interested in Constructivism and the Bauhaus legacy of design.
I identify with the Constructivist for their anal-retentive aesthetic. I like my designs to generally be clean, efficient, but subtly playful and humorous. I like shape, dynamic perspectives and extreme contrast.

Q: do you mind sharing any ideas you find floating around about your thesis you would like to share? & As a graphic designer will you be sending us a message with your work?
A: My thesis will be concerned with information design. I never considered myself very good with mathematics or various units of measurements, so my idea is to explore the graphic representation of units of measurements or quantification in a compelling and informative manner.
Q: Where do you find yourself in ten years, Any major Changes?
A: Hell, I don’t even know where I’ll find myself tomorrow.
