Exercise Illustrations
This was a commission for vector illustrations of various weight lifting positions. I believe it was for a brochure but they wanted to be able to repurpose them anywhere but keep a consistent look throughout. This kind of thing is really fun for me. I guess it would fall in the technical illustration category.
Breaking Bad poster
In honor of the last season of one of the greatest TV shows EVER! I created this illustration. I hope to have time to do more illustrations like this in the future (Especially since Dexter is in it’s final season also). I had another idea after I was mostly done with this one. One I think would have been more dynamic but I wanted to finish this one first and Breaking Bad doesn’t start until August so I’ve got time.
Concert Poster and Guitar Wrap
It’s been a while since I did a concert poster and even longer since it was used as a guitar wrap. Fortunately it somehow turned out perfect for the guitar. This is one of may favorite guitars wraps.
Album Cover for Natural Super Natural
This post has been a long time coming. I don’t think I’ve ever gone through as many concepts/revisions as I have with this project. I was dissatisfied with so many of the early drafts that I just couldn’t bring myself to push any of them through. However the result is something that I think is pretty cool. As a whole I think it’s pretty effective and when it’s split apart (below) It drastically changes the feel of each concept to the extreme Natural or Super Natural.

Halloween Concert Poster
This turned out to be the prefect poster for a Halloween concert. So we got to use it after all. If I’d only waited a bit longer to post it I wouldn’t be putting it up again. I loved the title they came up with for the concert and the whole thing seemed to come together much better than the previous version. I thought I’d throw this up here quickly before poster the new album cover which we finally completed. Stay tuned for that coming up.
Orem Arts Festival poster
Elemental asked me for a family friendly poster for their set in the Orem Arts Festival. Somehow I got from the suggestion of “Monster Family” to what you see below. I had some other ideas of where to take it but I ran out of time. I think we’ll probably use this one again (probably for a guitar wrap as well) and maybe I’ll rework it then.
Elemental Single Album Cover
This was originally going to be the cover for Elemental’s sophomore album, but then time passed and the album name changed. So we decided to use if for the first single. The cover is inspired by a line in one of their songs “Let your spirit strengthen my sword arm”.
The Concert Poster Illustration that never was
So, I’m just going to do it. I created this poster last year but the fear was that it would get torn down from a certain local university campus. So it was shelved and another one created in it’s place. I’ve been waiting for an opportunity to use it again and it just isn’t happening. So, I’m just going to post it because I like it and I don’t want it to get lost.
Muse (the venue not the band) Concert Poster
For this poster I decided to get back on track… by going off track and just doing what ever was inspired to pop into my head. You probably wouldn’t guess by looking at it but the original inspiration for this was the image of Luke Skywalker Running through the swamp with Yoda strapped to his back. I just thought it was a cool concept and it just kind of grew from there. I’m often inspired by something I see in a movie/read in a book/hear in a song. Although once it gets through the filter of my brain there isn’t much resemblance to the original inspiration. And that’s just fine with me.
Concert Poster and Guitar Wrap
I’ve been so busy lately that I haven’t had time to post all the things I’ve been working on. I’ve got quite a few posts ready to go. I thought I’d start with this one. This was one of the most difficult posters I’ve done in a ling time. I went through a lot of failed concepts and in the end I went back to one of the abandoned ones so that I could make the deadline. The concept didn’t particularly lend itself to a guitar wrap either and I was worried about how it would turn out. But I was worried for nothing. I really like the way the wrap turned out! The colors and texture go so well with the guitar that it’s becoming one of my favorite wraps.
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.
