Breaking My Own Rules

not that anyone will notice but this is the first time that i've allowed the outer white line to go over top of the black outlines and inner colors of an object. yep, i've really started to push the envelope.

Mural for Coro

i just finished an 80ft mural for the Coro Center for Civic Leadership in Pittsburgh. it's in a hallway so i couldn't get a projector back far enough to trace the design. i drew it all freehand.

You can ring her tone

Brighton Township singer-songwriter Ali Spagnola has tapped into one of music’s hottest markets.

Spagnola’s song “Radiation” was chosen by T-Mobile as a ringtone for its MyTouch G3 with Google. That’s the phone promoted by Whoopi Goldberg in a TV commercial.

Spagnola named her song “Radiation” because it begins with the sound you hear in speakers when they’re getting cell phone interference.

“Then I chopped that sound up and mixed it as percussion for the song,” she says on her Web site. “I’m guessing that’s what made them think it would be a cool ringtone.”

It’s a funky little techno-ish tune, you can sample at T-mobile stores.

So cheers to Spagnola, whose previous claim to fame was recording a “power hour” album featuring 60 songs, each one-minute long and dealing with the topic of drinking.

It’s a remarkable album, really.
