Melancholia

I learned myself a new trick! In order to get the hang of it, I decided to make a mock-movie poster. I've seen the likes of Graphic Design giants such as Olly Moss and Tomer Hanuka do their takes on movie posters (Yes, I chose the same movie as Tomer but what can I say, it's an awesome movie!) to which I could never dream of comparing, but in spite of that I decided to do my own modest little version of one.

Really minimal and it kind of gives it a sci-fi vibe, but it was a quick little project.

Uptown Art Fair 2012

Hello, it's me. It's been a while, hasn't it? Have you been thinking of me, like I've been thinking of you? Fond memories... Passion filled rendezvous... Heart-wrenching goodbyes...

Woah woah woah, got a little side tracked. Anyways, I came up with a submission for the Uptown [Minneapolis] Art Fair t-shirts this year. It's simple, but I wanted to appeal to a wide demographic. Hopefully I win! But no hard feelings if I don't, I had fun making it.

The font was designed by Måns Grebäck, and I added the reflection-type flourishes.

A quick mock-up.

Rorschach (Toxic Ideation)

So as you may or may not have noticed, in reference to my Toxics album cover, the finished product was monotone. It didn't start that way though.

Stumbling through old files (oh, those files!) I found the original color version and appreciated how well it worked as a stand alone, I thought I'd show you guys to see your opinion.

Which further stemmed from some paint blobs I made, as seen below.

What do you see here?

Now if only I could find a decent large format printer... (Tips & hints welcome!)

Supermarket Model

It's amazing where you can find beauty.

Handwritten Notes

  I don't know.

I always get these strings of words stuck in my head and I feel like they should be manifested somehow. "Handwritten Notes" is one of those said strings.

Maybe someday if I start a correspondence with someone after I'm famous, I can make this a cover of a short book or something. Or something.

Sophia

I took this photo of my friend, Sophia, a long time ago in a friend's studio complex. I decided to use it as design exercise today. I love portrait style photos.

Six Words

This is something I threw together a while ago for Six Word Story Everyday. It looks as though they are no longer posting daily submissions, and they never posted mine even when they were, but I still like it. It was nothing fancy anyways.

I'll probably make more of these.
