The Louisville Visual Arts Association asked me to adorn a piggy bank to be auctioned off at it's annual Bacon Ball, coming up this Saturday. The proceeds benefit JCPS Students Art Supply Fund, Children's Fine Art Classes (CFAC) and "Open Doors" Program. In the spirit of the event and as a tribute to the worlds greatest addition to any meal, i decided to make a statement. "It's always better with bacon".

Meant to post this a few weeks ago, but here's some shots of the new forest Giant shirts I recently did. These were really really fun.
It's been a few years since i had any actual business cards, so i had Hound dog Press run some big ole' thick ones. I wanted to include my silly tagline, and keep it simple. Mission accomplished. Letterpressed on 220lb Lettra stock.
Last month The Type Directors Club released the thirty-third edition of their annual typography book, featuring winners from the 2011 typographic competition. Needless to say i haven't been able to put it down. More than ever i'm humbled to be included with so much amazing work.
From Paula Scher's cover art, to the layout, this book is gorgeous and is a bargain for the nearly 400 pages of inspiration. It's available for purchase HERE.
The Forest Giant crew had the best idea for Christmas cards. Instead of cards, why not a set of letterpressed calendar cards, highlighting each season for clients & acquaintances. Awesome, right?! I got the privilege to design the winter months. I decided to treat a famous quote by Pietro Aretino. It was printed here in Louisville by the super rad folks at Hound Dog Press. The card was printed with black & silver ink.
