Months ago I was looking for a messenger bag; specifically a cool one that wasn't plain. I had ZERO luck in this department. I found one that was cool, but it was a limited run, and after looking all over the web for it at work I could only find it in stock, in Germany...And they only shipped to Germany!

Eventually I gave up and decided to get a plain one and make it cool. 3 months later I finished my goal!


I was on a huge kick of Giant Squid vs. Sperm Whale for awhile. I have all these graphics that I never finish or finish and have no use for (like that lion graphic that's up there for no reason), so I decided to put this on my bag and it turned out pretty well. I think it could be better, but in order for that to happen I would have needed a lot more money and equipment.


There's more paint on there than I'd like, and it's not as clean as a screen print or heat appliqué but I think it's way better than some boring old black bag. I maybe want to put something on the right of the bag but until I think of something completely awesome I'm brave enough to leave the empty space.

I've kind of sort of maybe just a little been considering starting up a side project of wearables and other odd crafty items for sale, but my next goal is to get my portfolio/concept website live and kickin. Then maybe I'll allow myself a new project.
