Bleeding Hearts

Curtis Peel of the band Futurist organized a successful Kickstarter album release event called Bleeding Hearts, which I had the pleasure of designing and printing posters for, as well as live printing at the event. In addition to this 2 color square poster (echoing the size of a 12 inch vinyl) I made a custom live printing image for the table, manned by myself and Matt Sykes of Werdink. The Bleeding Hearts event was a blast, with several live bands, multiple art and sound installations, and some interactive displays and performances. 

CABLE

Fellow screen printer and metal lover Coty Densley of Dark Mountain Printing organized a great Cable show at Union Pool last year for which I designed and printed this poster. Somehow in the awesome ensuing ruckus the stack of posters disappeared into the ether, but I've still got mine to remember the night by.

BROOKLYN MUSIC INSTRUCTION

The music teachers at Brooklyn Music Instruction asked me to design a flier to post around the city, with the only guidelines being that I should include imagery of children playing instruments joyfully. I decided to aim for a cut paper look, which I mimicked on photoshop by using geometric shapes and drop shadows. It was exciting to produce this without having to use an exacto knife, and we were all pleased with the results.

ABBY PAYNE

Abby Payne is a talented singer wongwriter who asked me to design a cover for her new EP Sasquatch. Peeking out the back window of her apartment in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, and seeing greenery spilling over her neighbor's overgrown backyard, Abby envisioned a sasquatch dwelling there, and asked me to illustrate this scene for the front cover. Along with the cover I also made a poster with space to write in show dates for her continuous use. Abby has since asked me help design sets and animate a portion of her new upcoming music video for the song The Prophet, so keep your eyes peeled for its debut- I'll be posting it here on the site shortly.

After doing some work for JP Schlegelmilch of the band NOOK, JP asked me to make some posters for some of his other music projects. I came up with these poster designs from scratch while listening to mp3 tracks of the corresponding bands. It's been a pleasure to come up with imagery for JP's various bands, which all play regularly around NYC.
