Poker Cards Collective

poker

When I was about 6 years old, I created my own little collection of playing cards. I invented my own game play and I called it “Risk” based on the original game. These cards became an instant hit among my friends back then. Now at 29, I feel that its time to revisit the idea. As I kept thinking about it and about the state of technology now and how vastly different it is from my childhood days, I began to have a certain idea. Why not let this be a collective project.

I am going to supply the vector template for the Poker Cards and hope that artists would download it and create their own versions and then submit them to me so they can be featured on the blog.

So here it is:

Download the Vector template

Once you are done creating your cards you can share a PDF version under 500K here or you can e-mail me a link and i will share it here on the blog.

President Barack Obama

I have not been drawing or sketching for a while. It feels bad and I think I started to lose some perspective on my creative work. However, I think going back to this awesome habit of drawing all the time can make any artist or designer feel much better about their work. It almost feels like physical exercising but for artists. I am going to start with a drawing of president Obama. Let me know what you think. This is a quickie by the way.

Waterpixel Studios

Back when I was in college, I teamed up with a very dear friend to start a small studio. We bought the name Waterpixel Studios in hopes that we will do collective commercial and personal work through it. Unfortunately the story didn’t end up that way. However, we still own the name and I have decided to give the website a much needed update. Now don’t be fooled, its not that much but I am really thinking about making something out of Waterpixel Studios some day. Dave are you with me man?

Iraq : Tears. Smiles. Hopes.

Iraq: Tears, Smiles and Hopes

I have finally decided to design a series of small posters that I am calling “Iraq : Tears. Smiles. Hopes.” I am dedicating these posters to Iraq and the Iraqi people everywhere. In doing so I hope to introduce the graphic design and visual communication style of our culture to the world using this new era of electronic communications through the web. Continue reading →

Pixel Art

I know that I started talking about the social structure in my last post but I have decided to drop the topic for the moment and get back to it as things move along. I remembered this funny story the other day and I have to tell it now before I forget. So I was at work today doing my work thing. I don’t think I mentioned it before but I am a new media designer which means I do designs for Interactive websites, create motion graphics and more. Continue reading →
