Posters from the past few years.



















Shook Ones - May 6 06. This was the first poster i printed. 5 colors on mr. french charcoal paper. given out for free at the show. limited to 43 and gone before the first band played.




















Headphones - May 26 06. My friend kelly was the music director at WWU. He's the reason i got back into artwork and printing. He's very patient and put up with me being a horrible artist for the first year or so. you'll be seeing kelly's name alot here. my first experiment with a blend. it would have been better if i was smart enough to use a larger screen.





















None More Black - June 2 06. This is the first poster I sold. I was really nervous about asking people to pay for my artwork, but I sold all 40 or so pretty easily. I hand-drew this
art.





















Go it Alone - July 26 06. This is one of my favorite designs.




















Blue Monday - September 2 06. Not my artwork. The dudes from Blue Monday saw my poster for Go It Alone and asked me to print posters for their final show. I didn't do this artwork. Funny story: while i printed these, my wife made an appointment to get a "goodbye, blue monday" tattoo on her foot. a kurt vonnegut reference, not a hardcore reference.





















Shook Ones - October 22 06. The latest poster I've printed. Glow in the dark, metallic gold, sold out pretty quickly. See glow below.

an explanation

this blog is to:
1) show off cool things i have made
2) find people who want me to make cool things for them

i screen print in my spare time. since i'm a teacher 40-60 hours a week, i don't have much spare time. but do i have weekends, various breaks and holidays, and the summer. i can print on anything that is mostly flat. i can do artwork for you too, though i don't consider it my strong point. i'll leave that up to you.

so if you want something done, no matter how small (or large) or simple (or complicated) send me a message.
