What's your favorite of the bunch? Mine is the flamming Grizzly Heat on the second slide of the sheet! 🔥

This was a fun project to work on for my buddy Rhett,
( ). A little over a month ago, Rhett started chasing the heat on YouTube. If you head to his channel, you will find honest reviews on a wide variety of hot sauce, peppers, and other assorted spicy foods.

Either if you're a fan of spicy eaten or not, you'll love his videos. They're filled with good ol' raw entertainment with a spice tolerance that is next level!!

I mean, I love spicy foods... But, when I watch the Grizz, my gut starts to burn! 😂.

As Rhett would say; Stay Spicy Pepper People ✌🏼

I win! 😜 haha...

I feel like it was just the other day when I was asking you for the answers to our English homework from the night before. Now, here we are almost 14 years later and look at the life we have created. We have accomplished so much together. We have been through so0o0 much together. And, we still have a whole lot more to go through together.

I thank you for your love. You are the reason I am who I am today.

Today we celebrate 9-years of marriage. Damn!! We're getting old! BUT, we're getting old together, and I can't wait to see how the rest of our life turns out.

I love you. Now, let's go eat some steak!! 🤤 @ Las Vegas, Nevada

What was the first project of 2021 that you were super excited about? For me, it's this project right here!!

If you joined in my Live Lunch Break Session last week or watched the replay... I vectorized the final element that I wanted to add to this asset package that I created for a lonnnng time friend. He recently moved to Florida to start prepping his land so he can live his farm life dream, and when he asked me to create him a logo, it was a no-doubter.

We had a nice conversation to kick off the idea phase of the project and then I came up with about 6 sketches to present to him. Once he picked the sketch that he loved, I created all the different variations that you see presented here.

I'm so excited about this and I feel like it's some of my best work yet. I can't wait to see these elements used on his adventure and how it all comes to life.

Have you used Illustrator on the iPad yet? What's your favorite feature if you have?

During last week's Lunch Break Session, I vectorized an illustration that I've been working on called Dead Legs. I really enjoy working with the pencil tool for rough illustrations with that hand-made feel. It does an amazing job at following your stokes and helps speed up your workflow tremendously.

In this sesh, you can check out how quick and how well the app is working. If you haven't given it a shot yet, I recommend it 100%

Give it a try today, and have a dope day!
