The Heathen Brothers (aka Brad & Chad Mozena) are screen printers from Orlando Florida. I wanted to make a site for them because they print some really rad stuff but not a lot of people get to see there stuff. The site was made with drupal. I wanted to make it really simple and to focus on the shirts, but also wanted it to reflect them and compliment their shirt designs.

Since the first skinnybuddha site went up over a year ago I wanted to redo it. I was rushed into putting it together and I never thought it got to where it should've been. So when I decided to redo it using Drupal I told myself I was going to take as long as needed. Well, it took over 4 months to put it all together including a completely custom theme built from the ground up(Zen, ftw). The site is designed around the three pillars of Skinny Buddha; Art, Music, and Apparel.

So the other night I was watching the Magic game and I heard the announcer say, "Orlando lives and dies by their 3's." I turned to my buddy and said, "we aren't gonna die by our 3, we are LIVIN by our 3's!!." So, the next day when local Orlando screen printers, the Heathen Bros., came to me and told me that they had some extra blue and white shirts and wanted to do some stuff for the Magic fans, I knew that I already had one idea to run with.

Inprogress Magazine is a online urban arts magazine based in Orlando, Florida created by good friend, Chris "Tobar" Rodriguez. He does a really good job of posting all upcoming art shows in and around the downtown Orlando area. Which is great, because I think the majority of art shows in orlando pass by without anyone knowing about them. The Orlando art scene is growing fast and can be attributed to locals like Tobar who are dedicated their time and effort.

Got to use some more of Swamburger's art to design this digital single cover for the new Solillaquists of Sound single entitled, "New Sheriff in Town". This song was chosen to be apart of the Rock the Bells digital sampler that is to be released on May 12, 2009.

Swam and my self put this together last week. It's a 14 x 20 poster print for Orlando's newest start up label, Second Subject Recordings. This bad boys are limited print and are for sale wherever good Swam merch is sold (ie Culture Mart, Phat N Jazzy, on the street..... etc).

You can't be inside on your computer forever. Sometimes you gotta go outside and soak in some rays.

2nd Subject Recordings is a group of artists, musicians, and creative writers that is based in Orlando Florida. Started by Swamburger at the end of 2008, this project is still very young. Swam invited 10 others to join him on 2nd Sub and I was one of the chosen few! So along with setting up the blog I've been working on the visual side of the music compilation cd that will be the first official release of Second Subject. Stay tuned to here and the Second Subject blog to find out about all the new music and art that we will be releasing!

Here's a couple quick edits I worked on with my buddy Bear for the Obscura Wake Blog. Enjoy the random!
