June marked the birth of our second child, a beautiful baby girl by the name of Luella Bea.
In Louisville, KY, the highlands neighborhood/area is a must visit destination for visitors, and a place that is special to anyone who lives in the city. Fantastic restaurants, and countless independent businesses run all along a stretch of bardstown rd.
Anyways, the highlands commerce guild recently held a competition, for artist's and such to submit proposals for a mural to be painted along the side of The Wine Market building, in the very heart of the highlands. Now, I cant paint, and I dont pretend to even entertain the idea. However, I really liked the idea of big bold typography popping off a brick building, reminiscent of older days while carrying a contemporary message.
Somehow, my piece was selected. Kirby stafford, who painted my pieces for Beer engine Brewery, will be doing the painting. Plenty more to come, including pics of the building etc.
August marks the Japanese release of Frontier(s) album "There will be no miracles here". The goal was to have the album art be a stark contrast from their U.S/european packaging. Mission accomplished.
Every once in a while a project comes along that just clicks. Scotty Perry wanted to rebrand his work with something more personal, with an emphasis on simplicity. The end result coincides beautifully with his work, and really pulls through in print & deliverables.
