Went camping near Montezuma last night — this was the morning view.

302 // August 28, 2008

Yesterday I said that I’d be taking you up the street to Johnson & Wales — I did you one better. I’m taking you downtown for the last day of the DNC. LIterally, I just couldn’t stay away, it’s addicting.
I ended up venturing alone down to the spots that we’ve frequented [...]


301 // August 27, 2008

Rode bikes downtown once more tonight — I think we must have been at the right place at the right time on Monday night, because tonight was even tamer than last night. Civic Center Park was completely closed off for tomorrow’s festivities and the 16th Street Mall had nothing but the [...]


300 // August 26, 2008

Rode bikes downtown again tonight. There was less “negative” action and quite a different feeling from yesterday. At least while we were down there…

In front of the Pepsi Center.

Getting people to go downstairs to watch the Hilary speech live.
Not sure if we’ll go down again tomorrow night, but stay tuned. Regardless, [...]

Couldn’t resist going downtown to see some action. So we rode our bikes all around — for the sake of my three-photo-rule per post, I’m going to limit the adventure to this particular part of the night.

Standing in front of Civic Park.

15th and Cleveland. Had masks on for a while after [...]

Hi. I should’ve let you know that I wasn’t going to be posting yesterday. We had the 2nd Annual Beer Olympics on Saturday and it was bigger, better and louder than last year’s.
This is a shot after a Beer Pong Tournament with a Germany team member in the background and a [...]

Observing while waiting for the 15L in downtown Denver.


296 // August 21, 2008

All finished and very pleased with how it came out. It was my intention to make it less dimensional (a little flatter) because hey, this board will get abused by the bags anyway, right?

Original sketch.

295 // August 20, 2008

Continued from yesterday. Don’t know how many of you paint, but I love the attention to detail that painting requires; not to mention having to pick out the exact brush that will get the job done right.

A commenter yesterday guessed one part of the first board by just seeing the bottom [...]


Blank Canvas

19Aug08

294 // August 19, 2008

Mentioned yesterday that I’d be starting an exciting project tonight; well, here is my blank canvas.

Tools that are necessary for the preliminary sketching of the scene on the one board.
More to come


293 // August 18, 2008

Isn’t the reflective sun through the glass just beautiful on the paint?
I’ve been doing a lot of arts-n-crafts lately, especially projects that involve getting dirty with paints. Stay tuned — I started a very exciting project tonight, and I’ll take you through the beginning of the process tomorrow…


Wynkoop Scene

17Aug08

292 // August 17, 2008

Wynkoop Brewing — Denver’s first brew pub.
I had taken a vertical picture of this scene that involved this photo as well as this one — but the overall picture didn’t seem very connected.

There was just so many different things going on in the top vs. the bottom… can you pick out [...]
