Love Note to MPLS

Sometimes it's good to get off the computer. Hard as that may be, Minneapolis, of thee I sing.

I Miss You

Desaturation for subtleties!

Destroy Rebuild

When you have no preconceived notions about how something should turn out, it's hard to tether yourself from completely going in all sorts of directions. This, I suppose, would be in exercise in going said directions [all sorts.]

Job Search

Looking for a job can be tough. Especially with all these fun distractions!

Americant Dream

A design that I was playing around with; 

Which may or may not be manifested more tangibly as a screen printed tee in a line that I'm starting soon. Keep your eyes peeled for more on that to come!

 Didn't get very far (spent all my time on designing the font) before a rehaul was suggested.

 Direction #2:

Better than my last but still not completely realized. Onto Direction #3:

 The client liked this direction, and here's the final product:

As stated on the 'sticker', the new single is out on iTunes and you can preview their music on Soundcloud.

Check ya latrrr!

HEY! This is my new design blog. On it, I will try to update frequently, presenting the work with which I busy myself (of the graphic-arts nature.) Hope you can dig it!
