Recently we did a test shoot for two really funny and crazy guys who also happen to make music together, Jase and Tom after their manager aeris saw my stuff on RedBubble and decided I am shit hot at what I do. (I’m working on the modesty bit, I swear.) Anyway they really really didn’t want to do a photo shoot in a smelly, public, and damp mens’ toilet so naturally I nagged at them until they relented. Then the first thing their manager said upon viewing this image was “That one’s for RedBubble!” So here it is.
Digital Illustration using PS CS, around 20hrs. Sept 2007. Dedicated to so someone who made life pretty hard this year for a while someone who is known for telling people to “shit or get off the potty” without actually doing anything himself. To this person I give a most classy two finger salute in a way that is more then self explanitory. :P Anyone who has worked their ass off and given it their all in the face of someone who is a total meglomaniac telling them they can’t for thier own reasons of insecurity or whatever will totally relate to this im sure!
My continuing fascination with handles and latches, and what they have come to represent to me, again comes to the fore. / Of course this image holds different meanings for everyone and can be viewed in many lights, it may even come across as slightly crass to some. For me, in the not so very distant past, the actual subject itself symbolised escape, an irony really seeing that the object is a lock and therefore represents captivity rather than freedom. In my world at the time though, it signified a few stolen minutes of peace from my chaotic and often terrifying life, and offered a tiny window of freedom from daily torment.

Hello, Tech Support. Just A Moment. Hello, Tech Support. Just A Moment..
I really hate to put so much work into something and then post it as “Untitled.” Sometimes I just can’t thing of anything to call it, but I will try my darndest to come up with a name. Contemplating this, I saw an aerial view of rooftops and city streets below. Made me think of the pains we go through to compartmentalize ourselves and to protect our personal space with concrete barriers. Don’t get me wrong: civilization is good … I like my creature comforts. But I have always been able to feel lonely in a crowd.

We are taught as a whole that to be “successful” we should go to school, get good grades, and then go and get a good job. So I sit at a computer in a beige cubicle and write computer programs. I am paid well. My environs are temperate. My chair is comfortable. Society tells me I am successful.
