Jealous On Life

Hi. I'm Isaac or 2bit depending on your mood and how fond you are of nicknames and hip hop.

So I made a coupon for a good friend's photography studio. If you get the chance, definitly check him out at @bsbeatty or BSBPPhotography.com. / #melk #melkstudio #melkbranding #bsbp #branding #photographer #portrait #minimal #minimalism #gradient #mmmmtasty /

So this is it. The last day. I wasn't sure I was going to make it, but I did. Little over 3 months after I started, without missing a single day. Fin. / I'll continue posting here, but it won't be as often, probably only a couple times a week. Pretty much every single logo and piece of art is for sale, and I'm always willing to talk price. If you want something custom done just shoot me a message and we can work something out. If you're a fellow artist and want to talk shop I'd love to! Same thing as all the above, just shoot me a message. To contact me you can either go directly through Instaham, Facebook, Tumblr, or email me at [email protected]. /

Since I have 2 days left and I'm still slowly learning French I figured it'd be appropriate to say that for the past 98 days all I've done is Do. Coincidentally, it is Deux Day. / Man, that is just about the worst multilingual pun ever... /

Life is crazy man. If you had asked me 3 months ago if i felt like making a hundred from the ground up designs in 3 months I probably would have said that you're crazy. Now here I am, 97 days later, with 3 days left to go. I don't know what I'll do after this, but I'm beyond blessed by everyone's support, and i know whatever I end up doing next will be just as challenging and fun. I already have several projects lined up at the moment so we'll see how those go. / So me and @randytravisofficial have started preparing our bedroom upstairs so we can finally have all the space in the world. YAY! /

Today's post goes out to whoever didn't have a lady or dude friend. / Still trying to vibe on Alt-J's new stuff. Still unsure. Also, it is snowing again! /

lately I've been trying to find new ways to push myself or old ways to reinforce what I have learned, and i decided that I haven't made a logo in a while so I made a logo. Bam. That's it. Kill.Ill is a clothing company based based around people who enjoy smoking a finely packed pipe or a hand rolled cigar in the most comfortable of situations. / If you have any ideas for logos, whether it be a full company or just a name, just comment here or message it to me. I'd love some new ideas. /

If anyone remembers the sexy bearded gentleman from about two weeks ago, Paul (@Paulbenjaminmatula) then you'll probably remember me mentioning his schoodyboo. This is his wonderful schoodyboo, Allegra (@apatkos). They are both wonderful people who are even more wonderful together, which i feel is a rare and delightful thing. I hope they keep doing them. / Woke up every two hours for the puppy and got so screwed up i almost made me and my wife leave a clean hour before we had too... Luckily @randytravisofficial checked the time first though... /

The American shad (Alosa sapidissima), is a species of anadromous clupeid fish naturally distributed on the North coast of the North Atlantic, from Newfoundland to Florida and as an introduced species on the North Pacific coast. The American shad has been described as "the fish that fed the (American) nation's founders". / I've always had a passion for lil fishies. It helps that I grew up on Cape Cod I suppose... /

So if anyone remembers, 3 days ago I posted a picture of a dapper pilot. That was JB (@jon.bow) and i briefly mentioned his fiancé, Courtney. This is Courtney (@caprellwy). She is one of the kindest and most genuine people i have ever had the opportunity to meet and JB is super lucky. Courtney is also the main reason I ever gave geometric portraits a shot. I happened to see her working on one and started asking a bunch of questions, cause i thought it looked uber cool. I don't even know if she still does them anymore, but I know i do... /

This originally started as a logo for @kyleehammersmith but didn't end up taking quite the route I was hoping so I scrapped it for a logo and made this instead. I put Kylee's eyes on it for realism and shit. In other news, I'm kinda thinking about starting a hashtag for people to get post photos of themselves and then drawing them and posting it here.

Now here is a nice self portrait. Kind of... So due to the shape our new house is in,we haven't moved a physical thing into the house beyond paint and lumber, but today is the last day we really have before we move all our crap in. It's exciting and daunting at the same time... #100daysofdesign #day21 #minimaldesign #minimal #portrait #selfportrait #selfie #illustration #graphic #graphicdesign #lowpoly #lowpolyart #melkstudio #melk #moving #previoustenantsucked

Ever since I was a little kid I've done these fingerprint looking wood grain type things. It's taking me a little bit to to get used to doing it digitally for the first time though... This is a cod. I am from Cape Cod.

And thus it begins. I have decided to switch over to my future branding now that way the transition isn't a train wreck later. I am now @MelkStudio! I will be updating things slowly and adding a website shortly.... YAY! #100daysofdesign #day18 #minimaldesign #minimal #logo #papercraft #melk #melkstudio #branding #rebrand #livingthatdreamlife

So. Thanksgiving is over. That means that now we have to deal with stupid Christmas music for the next month or so... If we had it my way we'd only start listening to Christmas music the week leading up to Christmas but whatever... In other news, here is an illustration of my beautiful wife who wishes they had started playing Christmas music last month. #100daysofdesign #day17 #graphicdesign #graphic #illustration #minimaldesign #minimal #hair #monoweight #linework #linecraft# #wife #beautiful #illkeepheraround

This year I'm thankful for my family and Josie's and the fact that we are now our own family, split off from our origin families to start our very own. Right now @randytravisofficial is passed out in bed, cause we got home at 3AM and i stayed up to finish this. My family had us over for their thanksgiving and then we painted till 2:30 and left for home. Tomorrow (today I suppose) we repeat it with Josie's family. Ah, fuck the holidays... Too much to do... On that note, I'm going to bed... #100daysofdesign #day16 #simple #minimal #minimaldesign #illustration #thanksgiving #family #turkeyday #thankful

For today's post I wanted to show a lot of my life recently. There has been the wifey, subtle romance in the form of painting living rooms and cabinets, and the back woods of Appomattox. Now that the dust is starting to settle and we can see the light at the end of the tunnel it's far easier for me to remain positive and joyful through everything. I already think the whole precious tenant thing is hysterical. I also realized that I've been doing designs for over two weeks straight so far, which is awesome. #100daysofdesign #day15 #graphicdesign #papercraft #illustration #antique #antiquestock #polkadots #romance #appomattox #woods
