Hello, I'm Becklo!

I'm a photographer and graphic designer in Detroit, Michigan. I like to take pictures and make stickers.

I do not like advertising myself. But alas, new year, new me. Or something.

Here's some stuff I've done that you can find at becklo.com :

BREAKING:

I just discovered I have photos I took in 2005 of both Ferndale, Michigan Taco Bells from before they were renovated.

I drew this on my tablet and it's one of the prettiest things I've ever made.

Update: the party store repainted the exterior a few weeks ago and intentionally kept SpongeBob intact. No touchups, just carefully painted around him so he can still advertise on the side of the building.

This came up in my memories today: Cameron, my beautiful little girl. She loved her supervised outdoor time and knew the sidewalk was her boundary, so she'd push said boundary as far as she could.

I've been traveling a lot over the last month, and that's why I've been inactive recently. Just you wait and see what I've accomplished in that time!

The hallway of the old Cinemark 16 dollar movie theater, the only remaining part of Universal Mall. Other than a fresh coat of paint and carpet, this looks how I remember it in the 90s.

Holy shit. This is an unfathomable situation for an artist I greatly admire and have done so since the Twitter days. Please check out this GoFundMe, please order a frog at www.figmentpudding.com, and/or please share this to get it in front of as many eyes as possible.

When I suddenly found myself looking for a house, we went on a tour with our realtor, Jo Cook. My MIL mentioned a house she saw on Zillow for $30k so Jo Cook took us to see it.

I'm so glad this is getting restored because it needed a LOT of work.

Who else remembers the SARS turtles that were all over Detroit in the early 2000s?

My grandpa would've turned 96 last week and it made me think about one of my favorite photos of him: laying down in his front yard with a camera to take a picture of a cat on a leash.

If you wonder why I am the way I am, here's example number one.
