Gigi X Cliche

Long time no see, right? Anyways, I threw together this flyer for an event my friend is hosting at Cliche in Minneapolis. If you dig female fashion, you should check it out. Short notice (it's tomorrow!) but I'm satisfied with the way the flyer turned out.

I'll be sure to update [hopefully soon] with some of my own screen printed creations.

Paintings Here & There

There has been a lull in my design work. Not entirely, but in terms of blog updates, I've been slacking. Not slacking, but painting. Here are some of my finished pieces I thought I'd show you:

A gift for ma lovely sista.
