Recently I did a job to design a shirt graphic for a Multiple Sclerosis fund-raising marathon event.  Good cause, but bad design.  It made me think of all the times myself and other designers have had to bite their tongue for a check.  Work is work.  And until you have your own line of goods to sell off or a style so unique and in demand that everyone wants you to do their marketing campaign, you have to do as the client wants.  Sell your design soul and get your money to put a roof over your head and food in your mouth.  It’ll all pay off one day

Original concept design sent to client:

Final design sent to press:

By no means breaking news here (it hardly ever is since I am usually too busy to post) but besides Neon Indian, this EP by Washed Out has been the lovely assistant of my design work as of late.  The one man band of Ernest Greene takes you round and round on a mellow synth-pop vibe ideal for long late night drives.  When played you may find yourself starring off into the distance in deep thought about girlfriends past, summer time cook-outs, the what-ifs and beautiful memories you’ve compiled in your inner thoughts.  It’s a good time to be alone with your minds company.  Enjoy your Life of Leisure.

I have some catching up to do… Camilla Lundsten’s Littlephant line is where I want to be.

just felt like posting some awesome hg work today… enjoy

It’s like Entourage, but about pants!  Looks cool though

always loved the creativity of this logo. embodying personality traits or qualities of a company and/or artist in the logo is so key and arguably the most difficult part of creation.

love this google commercial… so simple and sweet
