I got an e-mail from a girl that she has got a tattoo based on one of my character design. Here is the original rabbit character. I guess I am glad that she liked my character so much that she put it on her skin. One of my favorite artists is Mike Giant. I remember he was saying the same thing in his blog and I never thought somebody would do that to my design. I mean my graphics are not so traditional tattoo design look.
My Mos Def poster will be included in the Seattle-Moscow Poster Show that will be the third in a series of cross-cultural exhibitions highlighting graphic artists from the city of Seattle alongside those from the capitols of nations often at odds politically with the United States—namely Cuba, Iran and Russia. Focusing on the poster as cultural expression, this series has united cities through thoughtful exchanges of contemporary design work shared with the public. The goal of these exhibits is to break down stereotypes on either side and encourage simple acts of citizen-to-citizen diplomacy through the arts.
The Seattle-Moscow Poster Show will debut at Seattle’s largest art and music festival, Bumbershoot, September 4-7, 2009. After the festival, selections from the exhibit will hang in a variety of public locations throughout Seattle between September and November, 2009. The curator, Seattle’s Daniel R. Smith, hopes to send the exhibition to Moscow in 2010.
2 of my illustration got into American Illustration 28 “CHOSEN” section. The selected ones are, Japanesque and Six arms.
