Shark VS Kraken for @GoodLuckSock. Artwork originally created for boxers, and had to be redone for socks. Usually I cheat - have all the elements on separate layers and moving them around - but this one is too complex and had to be redrawn. #art #artwork #sockart #sockartist #apparelartist

Congregation of Alligators for @GoodLuckSock. Dedicated to Florida Man. Sometimes I hide little easter eggs in the art; a special treat for those who look closer. Originally made for boxers, but reworked for socks with the magic of photoshop layers. #art #artwork #sockart #apparelartist #artprocess

Fairies design for @GoodLuckSock. My usual wheelhouse is fierce monsters, dragons, aliens, spooky things, but in the sock biz, that only gets you so far. For this I decided to create something supernatural, yet softer. #art #sockartist #apparelartist #artprocess

Evil Swamp Creature for @GoodLuckSock. One of my Halloween design assignments. A versions of this design had an orange & teal surfer colour scheme that I hoped would get selected. This one is cool too, but I still think about what if we chose brighter colours. #art #sockart #apparelartist #halloween

Ghost Pirate for @GoodLuckSock. My first Halloween designs were popular, so I was tasked with making more. Halloween ghosts are pretty featureless(a white blob with a face);I decided my ghost had to be a ghost of something, so I chose pirate #art #artprocess #apparelart #artist #sockartist

Evil Dragon made for @GoodLuckSock. I think if you love dinosaurs, you also love dragons. I know I sure do. As I kid I watched that movie Dragonheart and it blew my mind. It also had me talking like Sean Connery for about 2 weeks after. #art #artprogress #apparelartist #sockartist

Chimps & Typewriters pattern for @GoodLuckSock. Sometimes I ponder writing fiction. I enjoy reading it, what if I'm sorta good at it? Then again, what if I'm the worst? Then again - again - what if being the worst has that quasi-reflexive effect of skyrocketing me to fame? #art #artist #artwork

Bl**dy Weap*ns design made for @GoodLuckSock. Title starred out because the algorithm is an overprotective nanny. Anyway, while I enjoy watching scary movies, I haven't actually seen all the Freddy/Jason/Myers/ etc slashers. #art #apparelartist #sockartist #artprocess #artist

Night of the Living Dead created for @GoodLuckSock. It's spooky season! My job gives me a lot of freedom in what I draw. I do have a to-do list given to me, but I am also allowed to insert my own ideas such as this one, inspired by the 1968 movie NOTLD. #art #artprocess #sockart #sockartist

Bats pattern made for @GoodLuckSock. Sometimes I mind map for my designs; visually my mind often already has preconceived ideas, but a mind map can sometimes force my mind to more far reaching and creative solutions. #art #artprocess #sockartist #sockart #artist

Storks & Babies pattern made for @GoodLuckSock. I'm not sure where the idea of storks delivering babies came from, but it is a fun visual. If you let your mind wander, you wonder if babies enjoy flight? How does a stork manage delivering triplets? #art #sockart #sockartist #artist #apparelartist
