The answer is yes.

Yes this will be the shape of my wine bottle.

my inspiration

I could tell you about the people you know about, but that would be redundant. (Da Vinci, Raphael, Every incredible artist ever). You may notice "fine art" seems to dominate my inspiration. It's true. I feel like GOOD DESIGN and "fine art" are the same damn thing. Intentional beauty. That's what gets me no matter where I see it. Intention. Here are a few of my favorites.


Artemisia Gentileschi







































































Jules Bastien Lepage

I saw this one at the met and nearly broke down. In person this painting is unreal. The internet really destroys most of its beauty.







































Tibor Kalman
The greatest smart-ass of the 20th century... And also so damn clean and deliberate with his design.






































































And of course, Doc Hammer
