@Ncyclopedia, those are amazing! You are very, very talented.

Can I post photos that I have taken?

moonexe · « **Reply #26 on:** January 28, 2012, 08:55:06 PM »

I don't see why not. That's why I made this thread after all.

Evan · « **Reply #27 on:** January 28, 2012, 09:43:50 PM »

Here are just a few of the few thousand pics I have taken

Thank you everybody! @Moon.exe, the red dragon is a paper cutting work.

Evan, your photos are great! What kind of camera do you have?

Thank you!
I have a Canon SX10IS and love it. But I am hoping to move up to a more professional camera in April. I've been looking at the Canon T3i but haven't decided on anything yet.

You can't go wrong with Canon. I use an older Olympus camera, but I'll get a Canon in the future.

@Ncyclopedia: Dude - your artwork is seriously WORLD-CLASS. You need to get an agent. No joke.

@Ncyclopedia that is some really good work!! Love the photography too! A real eye for the picture, that's something you don't see often. That is some work you've done.

Emmanuel · « **Reply #34 on:** January 29, 2012, 10:12:24 AM »

Y'all are great, thank you! lol, I wish I had an agent, art isn't my day job

It doesn't have to be. And with the right agent, it COULD be. Agents don't make you punch a clock, but they do help get your work into galleries and magazines and get it sold. You can create your art whenever you want. All the agent wants to see is sellable work on a fairly steady basis, since you and his other artists are his source of income.

In honor of Opening Day next week, here's a Poster I got to design today for Hornitos and the San Diego Padres!
It's not my favorite team (Detroit Tigers!), but it was still a fun project.

thanks, Randy

Wow, Randy, thx for reviving this topic! I haden't seen any of this. This is amazing. I just don't know what to say, especially since I have no artistic abilities...

Randy, are you from Indy? I think I remember seeing those banners downtown some years ago. Great work!

Thanks Russell!

Yep, my wife and I have been here for almost 5 years now. Great city! We love it here. We're in the Lawrence area, by the Geist.
It was actually the Brimstone and Americana decks that inspired me to check out this whole custom playing cards universe when
I saw them on Kickstarter last summer.

thanks, Randy

The Canon T3i is a wonderful camera, I highly recommend it. Image and video quality is superb and it handles well. Maybe not a 7D or the like, but a very nice piece of gear.

I know a lot of you guys (and girl!) are interested in Photography. A friend of mine just sent me a link to this really cool Photography
video created by a couple of his buddies. A lot of cool techniques were used. It really makes me miss the bay area!

thanks, Randy

"Hornitos - the official tequila of the San Diego Padres! Yay, tequila!"

This country really is something else, isn't it...?

Definitely!!!

Seeing as around 95% of our work deals with the Spirits Industry, I love the U.S. and our liqour laws!

thanks, Randy

Really like that. Looks awesome! Is it only photography or are some of the first parts film as well? This makes me proud of living in the Bay Area!

Hey Nathan,

I have no idea if it's all just time-lapse photography or some video mixed in as well. I would guess just photography. The work was created by a friend of a friend, so I don't know much about it. I just thought a lot of the photography fans on The Discourse would like it.

I didn't know you live in the Bay Area Nathan. From 2000-2007 I lived on the good ol' island of Alameda! I loved it there and it was awesome going to downtown San Francisco for work. It really is a georgeous area. My wife's family still lives out there so we visit the Bay Area at least once a year.

thanks, Randy

Ok, thx.
I live in Oakland since 2001. I moved twice: in my first house I could see all of San Francisco. It was beautiful! Now, I am very close to both Piedmont, Grand Lake, and Downtown, and I can see the beautiful hills as well as a bit of SF.
I take Bart and MUNI to SF to go to school everyday, and a 5 times a week I take bart to El Cerrito to either go to my Judo classes or to go to my piano lessons.

Next time I visit my stepbrother in the lower Bay, I'll drop you a line. I was there two summers ago for a big aikido seminar in the woods to the north of SF.
