Vignettes: Graphic design

LIMELIGHT

LIMELIGHT is an illustration of a monkey sitting on the toilet on its phone. I used it all over ATOMO artwork, shirts, as well as other graphic artifacts I tossed around Louisville.

KIRIGAMI cassette artwork

Louisville record label auralgamiSOUNDS created their first compilation record, and asked me to design it inside and out.

Lydia House logo

Lydia House was one of my favorite restaurants in Louisville (RIP). They served a rad bowl of ramen usually topped off with a dollop of nori-miso butter. Sometimes the Sun noodles they used weren't fully cooked through and they'd be lumped up in a ball—and I didn't mind.

These were stickers I made, and soon after I sold the rights to the logo to the owner Emily for $300.

Cliftones Louisville Music podcast

Local musician JC Denison commissioned me to create art for his podcast about Louisville music, "Cliftones w/ JC Denison". The title typeface was inspired by the album artwork for Basie's "Straight Ahead".

PHOTODISCO

A sweaty dance party we threw to say goodbye to our digs.

Paper Anniversary 3

Planet Earth Day at Kaiju

"Planet Earth Day" at local venue Kaiju was probably one of my favorite shows I've ever done. For Earth Day, six impromptu groups came together to score an entire chapter of the BBC's "Planet Earth II". It was absurd, intense, and at some points, wildly hilarious.

I paired up with Tony Robot and scored the "Cities" segment. (I'd share video but BBC won't let me post it on Youtube.)

I screenprinted this poster for the event. At the end of the night after almost everyone left and it was just barflies, I was going to put some gear in my car out back when I noticed the back fence outside was up in flames. We put it out.

A [plugged-in] charlie brown xmas

I brought a bunch of friends together and played a plugged-in rendition of Vince Guaraldi's "A Charlie Brown Christmas". This made me very, intensely happy.

Emily & JC's Divebar Fundraising Extravaganza

After closing my favorite restaurant, Lydia House, the owners turned it right around into what is now a mainstay bar of Schnitzelburg and cross-pollinator for all of Louisville's hipsters, jocks, hicks, karaoke champions, drunks, celebrities...you name it.

It's called the Merryweather. But before they had the name, they needed the money!
