Mural for Just Buffalo Literary Center

The End of Cafe Taza
Cafe Taza, the small cafe that I go to most mornings, is changing ownership and with this change the old identity I designed for the cafe is going to be retired. Below is the poster I designed for the transition party. Below that are some examples of the identity system in action.
Wall Paintings for Play/Ground
I spent two days making six large wall paintings for Resource Art’s Play/Ground event. 29 artists will be making installations in a former high school in Medina, NY. More pictures soon.
More Painting
I've been making larger paintings. My previous abstract paintings were connected to my fictional artists of The Thorold Gallery, these aren't connected to any particular conceptual project.
Fictions at Artpark
More about this soon.
New Thorold Gallery work
I'm test printing some larger sizes for my next show of Thorold Gallery work.
Irregular Chickens
I have been playing around with recombining and repurposing past illustrations, with no particular goal in mind. These chickens come from the State print series.
A Gig Poster for Duck Duck Grey Duck
I recently designed a poster for the Swiss band Duck Duck Grey Duck. It is being screen printed in Switzerland. I look forward to receiving the final print in the mail.
The Semi-fictional Painter
I've been making paintings for the exhibition posters for my fictional 1970's art institution, The Thorold Gallery. Now, somewhat confusingly, I'll be showing the paintings that started out as the work of fictional artists. They will be part of Resource:Art's exhibition series at Hotel Henry in Buffalo.
Montague Projects' Design for Nuits Sonores
The visual identity I designed for the Nuits Sonores music festival was unveiled today. The indie/edm festival in Lyon, France features 200 performing artists and 140,000 festival-goers at 40 urban locations. Some amazing European studios have done the identity in past years (Superscript2, Studio Feixen). As a designer I’m really excited about the big posters that are going to go up in the Paris subway. The full line-up will be announced tomorrow. I'll be posting more from this project as it takes shape.
