Josh Angle, the Hula Hula and the Disney Cruise Line

This Fri­day I sang Karoke at the greatly dec­o­rated, yet poorly exe­cuted tiki bar (way to much of a meat mar­ket for my tastes, the tiki vibe is totally lost in the testos­terone) the Hula Hula in Seat­tle. I saw an amaz­ing SHAG draw­ing on the wall and it made me want to find more SHAG inter­views on YouTube. This is a good one I found about the prints he did for the new Dis­ney Cruise Line. Enjoy!

Freebie Abstract Desktop Wall Paper

Another free­bie. I was play­ing with pho­to­shop layer effects, fil­ters and blend­ing lev­els. This was pure dig­i­tal explo­ration for the ocean. Add a lit­tle help from photoxpress.com with a decent look­ing sky and I think it tied it together.

I found the results very pleas­ing, if a bit mys­te­ri­ous. To geek out just a bit, I think it turned out to look a bit like the ocean after the island in LOST dis­ap­peared or some tech­ni­color Atlantis after the Gods enacted revenge for their hubris.
