30 minute exposure of the North Star.  Not bad I guess since i rarely do this, and it was 5 degrees out.

I guess it would seem unlikely we'd have become friends, but Richie is a great dude.  In spite of his situation he's always upbeat, positive and funny. Lunches with this guy were the highlight of my days in DUMBO.  See the full portrait story on my Exposure page

Make my Christmas dreams come true and vote for my very 'Merica sweater

Guys. Gals. Evening, Tumblrators.

I don’t ask for much. All I ask for this holiday season is to reach into your hearts and vote for my sweater. Look at it. It has eagles on it. Eagles and bears. 

Look, here’s the thing. Out of like 24,000 submissions, I’m ranked 112. The top 100 get their sweaters made. I am so close. I would wear this magnificent garment, like, all the time. This would be my favorite sweater ever, and I would possibly even have a fancy photo shoot done in it. This shoot would include axes, beards, and plenty of smoldering ‘tude. 

Please, for Ron Swanson’s sake, vote. You can vote every day, if you feel so inclined. It would make this little copywriter’s heart very happy.

I will keep the plug posts to a minimum. Thank you.

analogisheavy.com relaunched!

Thanks to all of the folks who have been so supportive of Analog = Heavy throughout the year. Your excitement about the work has been tremendous, and the one thing I heard repeatedly was, “WE WANT PRINTS!” and I’m proud to say the wait is over for most of you.

As of today, U.S. residents can now order Analog = Heavy prints. For those of you looking for wallpapers, they are no longer available.

However, the new focus of Analog = Heavy will be on the physical artifact. The best part is, I am joined by my wife and lifelong adventurer, Julia Parris. To start, each of us will be selling high-quality prints of our artworks, but we have other plans for early next year so please stay tuned. We are not yet shipping internationally, but will be soon.

So, I guess I eat a lot of granola.
