Obama and Clockwork





Final
2nd draft
1st draft
Yes even I did an Obama poster/flyer-it seems like every designer in the U.S(international too?) has done one. This is for a premature 'victory party' in NYC taking place on the night of the big day(nov. 4th). This flyer has taken a ridiculous amount of changes to get to where it is now but i think the outcome is better than it's previously been. Above are all changes and the one with Obama's protrait is the final.

Also-Clockwork told me to do a logo for him, so i did. Above are two versions-i forget which one he said he liked and they need color applied if nesseccary but these are basically the final products.

Clockwork has a Blog


My friend and hometown DJ, DJ clockwork (you could say he taught me a few things) has a blog!  This man's been playing gigs everywhere lately including allover the the cincinnati area, New York city and Paris.  He definitely knows how to rock a crowd and you should definitely check out his blog periodically as i'm sure he'll be updating many mixes and photos from his gigs.  



New flyer(s) and Clockworks logo-posted within the super near future.

In Space!


Just finished up and am about to print this poster for the local band In Space and their headliner Zach Deputy. They'll be a small run of 50-18"x 24." Besides this, i'm pretty much living @ school, all the work i need to be doing for the senior year and my show has left me with basically no time for any other projects, forcing me to actually turn down work which SUCKS-especially when it comes with money; Also had to cut back my time @ work to like a day a week which SUCKS more. BUT all of this is good because i can really focus on my thesis work-so basically if my show ends up being some mediocre concoction of a few prints and nothing super impressive with all of this time i've allotted for myself, then i have serious issues -but that won't be the case. I thought about posting work from this year as i make it but i am not really sure how much of what im doing right now will be final pieces or even thoughts in the show. Maybe later in the year though...

Litho Night
















Thought i'd post some photos of a recent lithography all-nighter @ school. Many people don't know what's involved in the the Litho process(aka the oldest printmaking process) so i thought i'd try to inform-or provide something cool to look at. Though these photos don't begin to explain all of it, because damn there's a lot, they really focus on the actual printing of the stone.
