fresh & crispy minga

Hey, hey there! so i’m currently in the process of getting my work available to the community on Uncommon. Until then, please contact me for your very own Minga phone case, personally.  <ade to last, uncommon is guaranteeing the highest quality and durability. I suppose the other thing for us all to think about is what graphic couldn’t i put in/on these cases!? so if you see something on Minga that you like and would luv to protect your phone with, please say no more and get in touch. these are the product cases available so far, iPhone 3g/3gs, iPod Touch Case, iPad Capsule Case, and Blackberry Storm II trooper shell. Cool thanks, more to come!!

I couldn’t believe my eyes when i saw this tee down by the uber talented Marion B for the Mighty Healthy brand! not to mention that they had my size, there was no question that this was going to be purchased!! Marion has been one of inspirations for quite sometime, so i’m super stoked to have a piece of hers in my collection of garments. do yourself a favor and check her out, Marion B. wondering where this was printed too, cuz it’s an excellent job. super soft and detailed and the color is amazing. Great separations, super clean! so my guess here, is that this was printed with wasterbased inks using a 280-305 mesh screen – please correct me if you know different, for sure.

Minga’s giant limited edition giclee print. 1 of 5 at this size, mounted and hung behind plexi, photos here don’t do it justice. will be available for purchase soon

Here’s some images from the print shop while i was on a press check the other day for a store like Kohl’s. Top image is a shot of the ink room, middle pic is some buckets of ink for a one of our jobs and the bottom is just one of our 14 color sample presses. This is such a cool process, and i’m still in awe everytime i get to witness something being printed. So, from this sample press we approve samples that are then used as a guide for the people running the auto presses in the other room. they setup accordingly and then fly through orders.

Got another chance to layout some tattoo work from Adambomb This time around we went with some 100lbs text weight flyers from Jak Prints , for use in magazine insertions and leave behinds. We also did a larger letter sized, tear away flyer. Had allot of fun laying these out and they printed great, too.

Got the final tattoo picture of a design that was commissioned by Jason Kayzar over at MC2, ink by Adambomb.  Included the initial shot of the tat, to document the process.

Here’s a quick turn, design i did for Pazzo’s 1st annaul food drive. Many thanks to the executive chef Patrick Webb for considering me for the project. We also donated a print for the silent auctions that were happening, benefiting the  Shalom Center of Kenosha. You’ll see the the print below and additional prints are still  available at the Mingadigm.

Hey there there, happy holidays. Got word a bit ago about a design that commissioned by Jason Kayzar over at MC2. Above you’ll see images of the design from start to first tattoo session. He was inspired by my previous blog-u-mentory on my tattoo by Adam over at Adambomb. Jason’s been a fan of my work for sometime now(many thanks sir) and was looking to have a tattoo done but was weary about getting more done until he saw the bloggings about Adambomb here. So, after consulting with Adam i began creating the design that Jason was thinking and Adam hooked it up. Great job Adam and thanks for thinking of me Jason!

Just found out that a collaboration that i was a part of has been published in the UK Advanced Photoshop Mag issue #61. This is huge and i owe some love and respect to the infamous Brand-Nu, aka Radim Malinic, awarding designer based out of London. You may ask yourself and so do i; how i ended up working with Radim on this project.  It all started as a member of the Key Stone Design Union and that’s where i ended up getting acquainted with Radim. We got to talking and for his Nu-Visual Language exhibition that he threw in Miami, i jumped on board and starting working on this piece with him. Just one of many contributors event, the process was intense, being given a track of music and initial Radim art; the floor was wide open. The track given was Realise, by Part Time Heroes (featuring Jono McCleery). You’ll see above the art provided by Radim and the  below what i added. Enjoy,and again many thanks to Radim.
