Vulture Boy: concert poster and guitar
Here’s another illustration in the “kids with scary animals” collection. This was actually the second illustration for this concert. The first was deemed somewhat inappropriate for a certain local college campus and they were afraid the posters would get torn down. So I had to create this replacement at the last minute. The other poster will be used for a different concert, so I’ll post it when that happens. I’m very happy with how this turned out. I had my doubts as I was creating it, but I pushed through and I’m happy it worked out.


Website Makeovers
Lately I’ve been doing a lot of these. It’s fun to to take something that already exists and create my own take on the same information. It’s also really fun to build the sites. It’s nice to problem solve how to make things work within the confines of a website structure. Rather than just show the final product, I thought it would be cool to see how they looked before I started working on them.

Cancer Song single artwork
This was actually a concept that I had created for Elemental’s upcoming 2nd album. We had moved past it long ago but I really liked it and felt it had it’s place somewhere else. When they told me they needed artwork for their first single “Cancer Song” I thought this worked perfectly.
Jelly Fish Girl: Concert Poster/Guitar Wrap giveaway
The guitar wrap on this one was very successful. A local guitar shop is even interested in sponsoring the next giveaway. I don’t know much about guitars but I’ve been told this is the nicest of the guitars they’ve given away. I was very happy with the way the colors turned out on the poster.



The Walking Dead Illustration
This was actually the start of a concert poster (inspired by The Walking Dead television show) that didn’t work out. Rather than let it sit half done, I thought I’d make it official by adding the title and posting it. It’s still in a state of unfinished-ness but I thought it was worth a posting.

Roctopus Concert Poster and Guitar Illustration
This poster/guitar wrap is the fastest I’ve had to produce an illustration. I was told one evening of the need for another illustration and had to have a finished piece done by the next morning. Luckily I already had an idea ready (sometimes that is what takes the most time) so I had a head start. I was kinda bummed that I didn’t get to spend more time on it, until I saw the guitar. It turned out better than I would have hoped. I can’t wait to do another.




Gator Guitar Illustration
I was asked to create an illustration specifically for a guitar wrap to giveaway at the World-Record-Breaking concert that was going on last week. Unfortunately one band was 15 minutes late for their set so the attempt had to be called off. I think they are going to make another attempt in the fall. Anyway, I was happy with the illustration and it sparked and idea to do a series of children and monster-animals. From my perspective the boy and the gator are friends, but it could be that the gator is protecting it’s next meal. I like that ambiguity and I’m excited to create more.



The Daylights Concert Poster
This concert has already passed but there were just a few things about it that I wanted to fix up before I posted it. There are still things I would like to change, but at some point you just have to move on. At this point I’m happy with the final result. Enjoy.

Logo Roundup
This is a collection of logos that I’ve done in the past few months. Rather than post them one at a time I’ll probably just do a Logo roundup every couple of months. Enjoy.

Another Concert Poster and Guitar Giveaway
I was really excited to see this poster printed and on the guitar. This concept is something that I’ve attempted to create a few times but could never get it to work. Finally it all came together. They did a great job on the guitar and I hope the person who wins it appreciates it. The look on the guys face who won the last guitar made my day, I’m hoping for a similar reaction with this one.




Elemental Concert Poster and Guitar give away
It’s been a while since my last concert poster so I was a little rusty getting this concept working. I think it turned out pretty great and the guitar looks wicked! So here’s the deal, Elemental is giving away the guitar pictured below to one lucky concert attendee. You can buy tickets at the door or save $2 and go to www.TheElemental.com. From what I hear they are going to do a series of these give aways at their concerts, each with the corresponding concert poster on the guitar. I really hope I win one



Crio Brü packaging
Here are the product shots of the first two flavors of Crio Brü. For those who don’t know what Crio Brü is, first of all it is not coffee. It’s brewed like coffee (in a coffee machine or french press) but it’s made from cocoa beans. We really wanted these to stand out on the shelves and each flavor will have it’s own unique color while staying within the same theme. Eventually the graphic will be printed over the entire bag but for now they are labels pressed onto a black bag. These are a lot of fun to design and I’m looking forward to creating the other flavors.
