Prolly, of Prolly is not Probably fame, titled a post with this recently. I liked it and thought it was fitting, so I drew it.

The Weirdest Thing I’ve Drawn This Year

My friend Aaron puts on some really great food related events. He often asks me to design some weird things for them. The most recent is this poster for his Bacon & Beer event taking place at the House of Blues in Boston on May fourth.

1. Freak out. 2. Jump!

I’ve been enjoying James Victore‘s Q&A Tuesday series on Youtube. Today’s question came from a designer who felt that they were at a crossroads in their career. The person had a steady design job, but felt it wasn’t getting him to the places he wanted to be or helping him to do the kind of work he wanted to do. He asked what James Victore would do in this situation. His answer? 1. Freak out. 2. Jump.

You should listen to it {here}.
