Lebron Painting

I was browsing the internet and stumbled upon yet another basketball painting. This one is of Lebron James, and immediately it captured me. It is one of my favorite sports paintings that I've seen.

Bass Flyer

This is the new flyer that I designed in order to get the word out about the Bass Fishing Club at Ohio State. I did it all in photoshop and was pleased with it overall.

M.C. Escher

Since a young age MC Escher has been my favorite artist. His skill and attention to details are only a small portion of my appreciation of his works. His thought process was so much beyond any other artist of the time, his pieces force your mind to do work while enjoying the quality of work.

Wood Turning Projects

Recently my dad purchased a lathe for smaller wood projects to be made on. Turning wooden bowls and other pieces is a process that i have always been fascinated by. Basically these projects are accomplished by taking a chunk of wood and fastening it to a center point that rotates at a very high rpm, then touch gouges to the surface of the spinning wood in order to carve a design into the piece.


This bowl was made with blocks of already dried wood glued together. This block of wood was then roughly cut into a circle with a bandsaw, then fastened to the center point of a bowl turning chuck. First the layout of the outside was created with a stepdown sort of layout. Then the chuck is moved to the other side of the bowl, and the inside is hollowed out. This hollowing process is much longer and more tedious than the outside shaping due to the idea that you are mainly cutting against the grain when you are inside the bowl. When working on the outside you are cutting with the grain. To finish the process off, while the piece is spinning, sand paper is applied to smooth the surface, then sealer and a varnish are added.

This is a goblet also turned from glued pieces of wood, this is a very delicate piece and can easily break at any second if one of the gouges would happen to catch the grain of the wood. This piece has been sanded but has not been finished or sealed yet.

Sports Art

My two loves in life are sports and art. When the two are combined it's a beautiful thing in my eyes.. Here are some of my favorites.. hope you enjoy them.

Etch a Sketch Art

I thought this stuff is wild. Using an etch a sketch as a kid it seemed almost impossible to create anything worth looking at.. but clearly this artist has perfected it and completed perfect renderings.

Will Ferrell Concert

Some Pictures from the Will Ferrell comedy tour last week. It was the highlight of the week. So man good jokes it's almost impossible to remember them all.

More Julian Beever

I've had a couple requests to post more Julian Beever Images.. so here they are... hope you enjoy.

Swimming girl from intended angle

Swimming Girl from opposite angle. Technique known as anamorphosis.

Turd's of NCAA Hoops

In my opinion college basketball has been filled with turds recently... So i just thought that i would document them.Greg Paulus... Littleman Syndrome Joakim Noah... I'm not even gonna say anything....He says it all himself.

Shelden Williams : BIG Turd

Ekpe Udoh.. Try to shush OSU in our house..... RIGHT
Seriously?! JJ Redick.. Monumental Turd

North Carolina vs. Duke

As anyone in the sports world is well aware, tonight is the most important night in the college basketball season. To some it may be considered more important than the National Championship. The bitter rivalry that puts Ohio State - Michigan to shame.... North Carolina - Duke. It should be a huge game due to the #2 vs #3 ranked situation. Unfortunately tonight is Ohio State's free Will Ferrel concert and that cant be Tivo'd... so i guess im going to have to record the game and get to it later. Hopefully Ty Lawson will be healthy, Ty Hansbrough will put down another hstoric game, Gerald Henderson will get an elboow to the face (just like he gave Hansbrough last year) and Duke will continue to suck with a tragic loss. Can't wait to see them cry.

3D Sidewalk Art

At first glance one might think that the artist is on a building in the first image and the artists is spraying water from a hose in the second piece. But actually both pieces are made with 2D materials to create a 3D look. This artist is Julian Beever, and this is all he does. His work is insanely interesting to me, and i would pay a lot of money to someday have one of his works in or around my house.
