In any event, here is the *nearly* complete first itteration of http://www.loveworn.com. I should have a few additional pieces up by the weekend. http://www.threequarter.com is up as well, with more detailed shots of my products. I know a lot of people here have been interested in my work and it's finally (to some degree) up.

Excited about a couple things...So I just had my senior show at the hammerstein. I was approached by a bunch of art directors, most noteworthy, those from W Magazine and Callaway publishing. W is interested in typography freelance and Callaway in children's book illustration (they handle Madonna's books).

Thanks much for the continued interest. Crits welcome.

Hey I tried in both Firefox and IE but the Purchase button seems to be unresponsive. Any ideas?

Excellent work. Your pen & ink skills are awesome.

I've got a question though... what's the difference between china ink & india ink? I've only used india with the dip pen.

 

[Mario_Hugo]

China ink is a bit denser...

The purchase button won't be working for another couple months still. More products en route as well.

Thanks

My gf is a graphic designer and she said your work is beautiful. Kudos.

Nice one, man... no doubt you've sent the folio link to DiK etc?

That's some great stuff there!
The graphic design examples are especially strong.
Keep us posted on what comes next .

Mario,

as always, your stuff is beautiful.

i will actually be stepping back into the studio this coming week for some bookbinding project (a friend's wedding scrapbook)...have any good ideas? currently, shooting myself in the foot for not visiting Talas in NYC a few weeks ago while i was there. i just got the Asahi paper sampler the other day, but it's been so long since i've handled a bone folder.

anyway...best of luck.

Thanks very much for the vote of confidence. More cool news: I was contacted yesterday by a studio that will remain nameless (all I'll say is it's one of the largest identity studios on the planet). I'm still not certain what I want to do. I studied Art Direction, but illustrators want me to illustrate, graphic designers want me to design, and art directors want me to...well, copywrite (sigh). In any event, thanks very much again.

As per book binding. I haven't really done all that much of it, but I'd love to learn more. It just seems like something kind of soothing and fulfilling--let me know if you're in the city and you'd like to meet up. Talk to you later.
