Return of the Cassette

October 27, 2023

A modern take on a classic. I ordered one of these cassette players in black (Keith), to listen to some of my many mixtapes from way back. It includes bluetooth connectivity and a rechargeable battery. The quality feels pretty decent thanks to its aluminium body, and the sound is good too. My only knock is that the record button is right next to the play button which makes it a little too easy to press accidentally.

Abduction iPhone Case

September 15, 2023

Just received a one-off (for now) sample of the polycarbonate iPhone case. The quality is pretty good, and colours are sharp. They will be available in green, pink, and black via my online store very soon. I just need to finish up a few other items for the website. Can’t wait.

1992 Kawasaki ZX-7

August 24, 2023

The nicest motorcycle ever made in my opinion. I’ve wanted one ever since I first laid eyes on one in 1992. I’ve finally found one, and now all I will be doing in my spare time is this.

Abduction Records Shop

July 6, 2023

Working on building an online store for Abduction merch via Dripp Studios. Jackets, t-shirts, mugs, stickers, cell cases, and more. No demand, just doing it for fun. Stay tuned...

The Record Crate

June 11, 2023

In 2011, I did an illustration of a record crate that I would use on my first portfolio website. The website used Flash (RIP), and the records would pop up out of the crate on hover-over, to reveal the inner links of the website (about, contact, etc.).

I posted the illustration on Dribbble in 2014, and since then its been the most ripped off illustration I’ve ever done. It’s been used for album covers, event posters, t-shirts, and more. I’ve written letters to record labels and had Etsy pages shut down, but it just keeps occurring.

So, I tried selling it... annnd nothing...

Apple Vision Pro

June 9, 2023

Call me crazy, but I just can’t see this paying off for Apple. Then again, I thought the same thing about the iPad and the iWatch so...

Quick Stop Liquor Lager

June 2, 2023

Quick Stop Liquor just launched their own lager in collaboration with a local Alberta brewery. The cans feature some art that I did for my bro (the owner) a little while back. Available in store at: 2711 - 17th Ave SW in Calgary, AB.

TP–7 Field Recorder

May 19, 2023

One of those things that before you even know what it is or does, you wan’t it.

Masterpiece Theatre

May 18, 2023

The production on this video is perfection.

Procurify Rebrand Launch

March 1, 2023

Today was the official launch of the new Procurify brand and website. An unbelievable amount of work was put into this in such a short amount of time, and it’s just the beginning. Exhausted but proud.

Block Printing 03.

February 4, 2023

Another propaganda cat. This time I experimented a bit with multiple colours and layering.

Porsche Configurator

January 27, 2023

Build/design your Porsche online. This is the new 911 Carrera T, that I would certainly order if I wasn't a deadbeat. Dreamers can always dream...

Block Printing 02.

January 13, 2023

Propaganda inspired cat illustration. The edges are a bit smoother on this one. Progress.

Van Gogh’s Cat

December 29, 2022

If Van Gogh loved cats like me...
Since I first started experimenting with AI art until now, the increase in quality and detail has improved an incredible amount. I can only imagine what it will be like in a few years.

Block Printing 01.

November 10, 2022

Experimenting with block stamp printing using old illustrations. I still need to refine my carving skills... if you look closely you can see some pretty rough corners, but not bad overall for a first try.

Slash

September 29, 2022

That time @slash liked an illustration I did when it was shared on the instagram page @monstersholdingbitches before their account was shut down. A definite highlight for me, as small as it may seem.

Sightbox 3

September 18, 2022

After months of hard work and experimentation, we finally launched our new website at Sightbox. My contribution was the overall design, illustrations, animations, renders, and style of the site, as well as laying some of the foundation for the new branding. Pretty proud of this one.

Arduino 101

September 15, 2022

I was super pumped about learning how to program circuit boards in this class until I stumbled upon some online reviews of the starter kit we were given and noticed that it’s very much geared towards children. Now I feel like Kramer when he took Karate with a bunch of 9 year olds. I’m still super pumped, only now with a slight complex.

Scream Tracker 3

September 11, 2022

God, the memories I have of this...
Drinking three cans of Coke in a row and staying up until 4am every night producing techno in my parents basement. This sequencer was life in 1994-1996.

Soldering & Electronics 101

September 7, 2022

A friend of mine told me about MakerLabs. I think I love this place. We both learned a ton in the soldering & electronics class, and by the end I was able to solder this little circuit board with an LED, resistor, and a switch. I also learned that I need glasses...

The Line

August 20, 2022

I think this crosses it.

Love Hultén

August 19, 2022

I think I just found the coolest thing i’ve ever seen. Inspired beyond words... Everything that I love all rolled into one.

Midjourney

August 13, 2022

Creating art with artificial intelligence? I have mixed feelings about that. On one hand, it’s pretty incredible the quality and styles that can be achieved in under 60 sec, and for almost no cost. On the other hand, artists with similar styles must be thinking... WTF! I created this image with 100% ai, and it looks like an album cover!

Abduction Records

August 12, 2022

It was in a Geology class at the University of Calgary when I first sketched a logo for my dream record label, Abduction Rekits. Little did I know back then that I would be creating logos for a living instead of looking at rock formations, but here I am. A bunch of years and mix tapes later, I decided to update the branding. All that’s left now is to produce some 90s techno again!

The Home Office

June 10, 2022

Not going to lie... living in California was paradise. However after 2 years of working in a dark corner of my bedroom facing a wall, this is also paradise... but in a different way. Here, the heat may come out of the vents instead of the sun, but at least my two cats aren’t my only friends.

Spotify Playlist
- Hip Hop Goats

April 29, 2022

THE best hip hop classics from the 80s right up to when it started to suck... (grumpy old man). KMD, Slick Rick, Pete Rock & CL Smooth, Rakim. Need I say more? Then again, what do I care if you listen or not.

My Viral Wiener

February 8, 2022

I made this hot dog animation as a joke while trying to learn some Cinema 4D. Next thing I know — 370K views and 13k likes on Instagram. I can’t explain these things...

Spotify Playlist - AM Classics

February 7, 2022

66CFR was the oldies radio station in Calgary when I was growing up. I used to listen to it every night to fall asleep. This is a best of the best. Relaxing AF.
