Wild Man Design Tribe has been very thankful for everyone’s support. We’ve made many comrades in the past year. It’s even at times become difficult to differentiate Tribe from Collaborator.
Our Tumblr will be temporarily down until further notice. Only a small handful of the Tribe are students working at our final days of our education. Once graduation is within site, we’ll be back for our next move.

CTA SKETCH SERIES
ILLUSTRATION | 2010
This exercise is very much premature but at his point in 2012, it’s not right to revisit. The illustration had more thought and direction as I began to refine the subject. I only wish I put more time into it, as I began to find a purpose behind the subject.
TRIBE HAND
CTA SKETCH SERIES
ILLUSTRATION | 2010
In 2010, I began studying subconscious/spontaneous sketching. The purpose was to explore problem solving of composition and purpose when presented with an unpredicted mark. It’s almost like chiseling at random until a perspective is found.
I would jump on the Chicago Transit Authority (CTA), commute to school, and begin scribbling shapes and motion. Prisma markers were then used to bleed the pen and create more depth.
This is an illustration I did a couple months ago that I finally scanned. I’ve been pursuing a series of paintings and illustrations titled “headgear.” Unintentionally, my illustrations study the history of headdresses worn by woman of various cultures. As you can see, it may not directly be a replication, but rather hints of inspirations and question.
Check out my homie David Lai + support support.
This is my thousand words… and then some. It’s a collection of the fragments in the stream of my life.

Chicago Zine Fest 2012!!
We were able to go to this awesome event with our friends Remo and Carolina. These are just a few pictures of some tables out of the two full floors. As we walked around, table at a time, we were able to meet some of the artists. It was hard to not want it all.

Chicago Zine Fest 2012!!
Tuvimos la suerte de poder pasarnos por este gran evento con nuestros amigos Remo y Carolina. Estas solo son unas pocas de fotos de las dos plantas llenas de mesas y de artistas. Mientras pasábamos mesa por mesa fuimos conociendo algunos de los artistas. Había tantas cosas buenas que era difícil no querer todo.

Many of you seen these sketches from my ambidextrous sketchbook. I recently have been quite inspired by the geometric style that emerged from that year.

Many of our comrades are graduating this year. This current semester, it seems as though everyone’s been stepping up their steez and going all out on their work. Expanding skills, pushing boundaries, experimenting various compositions, and going Tribe on the detail.
Check out Chris Dazzo (WMDT) and what he was working out…
Uh oh….Dazzo disappeared and came back with some steez. Tribe is stepping it up (Taken with instagram)
My paintings that showcased at “THUS I BECAME A WILD MAN” back in 2011 finally got back up on the wall. For all those questions, there was a 4th canvas that showed him holding a fork. There wasn’t enough room….
The paintings are back up. Looks crooked…. (Taken with instagram)
