SOEX:HOPELESS AND OTHERWISE
This 2 color poster/mailing announces Southern Exposures' newest event entitled Hopeless and Otherwise. For this event SOEX asked contributing artist to produce work based on the idea of a nation overrun by conservative rhetoric. In designing this piece I created an illustration that begins on the mailing label and seems to engulf the title as you open the piece into a poster.

PAUL MORRIS
Paul Morris is an art collector and creator of The Armory show in New York City. Paul wanted a simple, modern set of stationary that would be simple, yet bold and stand out. To combine these concepts I created a simply identity that was then letter-pressed to give it a unique look and feel.

IDEO: PEPSI CONCEPT
Logo development and branding for a proposed new energy drink from Pepsi. I worked on this project from the bottom up. From designing the logo to working with product developers to design the bottle. Pepsi wanted something different. Something that would stand out on the shelf. We looked at innovative bottling and printing that would still fit within their budget.

LIMINAL
The Liminal poster project consist of 12 separate posters. Each poster is an exercise in the manip-ulation of information and image. Each takes an image that contains a great deal of information and ���rewind��� it slightly so that the information is still present but the image has been re-contextualized.Or to put it another way you have the lock but no key to open it.
