Finally got on the metro and was able to catch a view of this poster I designed for Emory Health Care. It turned out better than I expected. It’s a good feeling to see you r work in a public space. This is what people must mean when they say, “I get high on life.”
This is a business card I did for a Brad! Brad does PR, photography, and into representing Jazz muscians.
A quick flyer I did in the wee hours of the night for my DJ friend who goes by the alias Vinyl Pimp. (www.vinylpimp.co.uk) for his release party! Not too much I can say about this. There was allot of copy! Actually there was even more text, but I left it on the editing room floor. I guess people love to over-kill these things by dumping tons and tons of information, forgetting that people for the most part loathe reading, especially the type of person who might be interested in said Dance Party. I guess in design school the teach you early on, “less is more,” and now I get that. Oh’ Well!
Just finished designing and sending my 2009 Christmas Cards to the Printers. I guess I’m cutting it close, but better late than never right? I like the idea of Christmas, but not so much the actuality of XMAS. Lots of Traffic, Stupid people cluttering up the stores and cafes I frequent, vagrants are extra vigilante,trying to capitalize on the Holiday Hustle! It’s all enough to make you day dream about mowing down annoying shoppers at mall with an AK-47. But there is another side of Christmas. Chillin at home with the ones that you love. I tried to personify that homie Good Vibrations in this card… + gratuitous sexuality. 
Happy Holidays. -Joshua
Here is a cartoon caricature to my dear friend, Jany Xu. She’s a Chinese badass! And no she doesn’t know any Kung Fu, you racist assholes. But she will put pee-pee in your coke, so watch out. That stereotype is oh’ so true. Had to find that one out the hard way. (just kidding, she doesn’t pee in anybody Coke.)
The illustration is pretty clean, and I did it in record time. Mission Accomplished. On the the next caricature for Melanie. Boom!
…be a Winner!
Emory's Clinical Trial for Depression
This a poster I did for Emory Health care on Depression. It’s yet to be approved, but I already put a banner on this saying, MISSION ACCOMPLISHED. George Bush style, cause sometimes you have to pat your self on the back before the job is done! Ya’ know? You should see in soon in future around town on MARTA, and if you’re depressed by all means call in, or if you’re not , call in anyway and tell them how much this poster moved you. The more people respond to my ads, the more the will rehire me and and refer me to new clients. First you get the clients, then you design the hot sh*t, then you get the money, and then but your THIRD X BOX 360, because the previous ones got the ‘red ring of death.’ WTF! XBOX is just that good. I will never buy a Platstation. XBOX fo’ Life!
[note to self: buy Assassin Creed 2 and Left 4 Dead II]
AFFIRMATIVE ACTION (Revisions): This is the revised version after the suggested revisons. It’s now quite wordy and now an African American is represented.
My Submission: Greedmont Parks BIG BADASS EPIC ART CONTEST
Greedmont Park is now doing our first monthly artist competition to find some badass artists who know how to murder it creatively, and what better way to find some real killers than through some healthy competition. This is a sucka free competition. The themes are meticulously designed to weed out suckas and jive ass turkeys who bring shame to the game, while bringing out epic creativity from awesome visionaries who don’t simply phone it in.
Before you submit your artwork, or even get started, ask yourself ”WOULD CHUCK NORIS APPROVE OF MY ARTWORK?” Is your art good enough that Samuel L. Jackson would give you a fist pound? Would Rambo hang it on his wall? If you answered NO to any of those questions, then you aint’ bringing the thunder.
[Theme:] Take a sissy, lovely dovey chick flick, from the selected list, and ’REMIX’ it into a “BADASS GRINDHOUSE” styled movie poster. Simple! The works will be judge on creativity, awesomeness, execution but mostly how BADASS they are. + For more Information!

I’ve been following the podcast WTF with Marc Maron since its inception a few months back on the internet. It’s a weekly podcast that allows Marc to showcase his unique brand of comedy that borders on black comedy to satirical observations with a little political commentary sprinkled on top. The great things about podcasts in generally is they are as regulated to the degree of the Wild west, any shit flys on them. Podcast land is generally where comedic personalities can be unleashed and go to work like rabid pitbull(kinda alike what I fantasize mainstream media would do!) Itunes is perfect place to see mild mannered comedian that love from tv present their unique perspective on everything raw and unfiltered. It’s a beautiful thing, and Marc Maron is part of it.
I saw that he was coming to Atlanta to do a gig at The Laughing Skull Lounge, so I decide to buy a ticket and check it out. And I got the great idea to show my admiration to do a illustration of Marc. Boom! I guess you’d have to follow to the podcast to truly get the greatest of my illustration.

I do allot of revisionist work, where I take existing designs or illustration that are lacking POP and make em’ Juicy! That’s what I do. I guess it’s the digital equivalent of the the Tattoo cover up. Give me what ever, and I’ll convert the wack, for lack of better words. Here is a example of that process.
