Please help spread the word. A dollar goes a long way.



































Helping my friend Kam spread the word.

Kam needs your help to slow down the progression of her incurable disease...

A progressive and debilitating muscle disease (HIBM, Hereditary Inclusion Body Myopathy) caused by a gene defect began 9 years ago and everyday it progresses... It can lead to complete disability within 10-15 years (some to the same effect as c-spinal cord injury), though every patient can progress differently. Though HIBM is rare it affects people in all corners of the world.. After 8 years of living alone with this disease I met ARM (Advancement of Research Myopathies) in Los Angeles, CA. ARM, a non-profit organization, is the leading supporter in research towards a cure, and as their Creative Director She work on all their PR/Design needs.
If you want to know more about her story, here are a couple articles that were recently written.

The Dollar Campaign

The concept: Each person donates a dollar and passes the web page/link to their entire contact list via email and so on. All "dollars" go directly to getting patients to trial. With the Internet and social age I am confident we can spread the news and with One million people involved it can be achieved.

The projected project launch date is less than 1 month.

Human Clinical trials could possibly start as early as Summer of 2009.
ManNAc is believed to help stop or at the very least slow down the progression of HIBM. ManNAc has gone through the required research phases with FDA/NIH and is ready for human testing. ARM is seeking multiple avenues of research and ManNAC is one of these. ManNAc is ready to go and all that is required is 1 million dollars. If we can achieve these funds quickly, patients, including Kam, could start trials by 2009.

Surrender



I did this sketch during lunch today then fixed it up in photoshop. I realized only after I was finished the pose of the girl looks totally familiar cause it was the same pose as Shelly Wan's Salome. This piece turned out to be totally inspired by that piece. Thanks for the inspiration Shelly :D.

Siblings


I have a love hate relationship with this picture. They look a little too intimate for siblings and what exactly is happening in this picture is a bit ambiguous. But figured I'd post it anyways. I think this will probably be the last sandman post.

My first mech


Did this design for the Mech and Vehicle Design class at the Concept Design Academy. I was totally blown away by my complete lack of knowledge in this department. I did a variety of designs to lead up to this one and with each design there was a new challenge. To find out I still have that much more to learn was both exciting and scary.

Head


Started a sculpting class yesterday. It was tons of fun. Felt like a kid again pushing and slapping on pieces of clay. This is a head based off of a drawing the teacher gave us.
