pittsburgh city paper spot.

miss lisa cunningham of the city paper was nice enough to assign me a near half page spot piece on the gradual demise of the port authority transit system. it only works when you look at it from this angle.

cycle cover.

a friend of mine by the name of stephen haynes, was just recently hired as the art director for bicycle times magazine, an international magazine for the cycling enthusiast. i'm very appreciative that he asked me to do the cover for his first issue there, and this is about how it turned out. thanks, again to stephen and all the nice folk who took a moment to tell me that they liked it.

screen printed poster that i made for a band i make music with.

this is a small press my friend, stephen has setup in his home studio. he basically did all of the work and supplied the poster with its ink and foundation.


this was a lot of fun to watch, even though it's only two screens. i'm looking forward to doing more in the future and learning about the medium and methods further. printed off a run of fifteen and then hung about nine or so up in a few spots downtown. my band's name is catfish edwards & the hit machines.

bicycle times finish?

here's where i ended up. not sure yet if they want any revision on it.

bicycle times cover progress.

i've been fortunate enough to be creating a cover for pittsburgh based magazine bicycle times. a good friend of mine that i used to work with is now the art director of the magazine and i have been working with him to get this where they need it to be. he basically left the theme up to me and i'm not quite sure why i decided to go in this direction, but it makes sense to me i guess. i like riding and it's my first cover gig, so i'm just running with that. i believe this is distributed out and about most of the world, so that's interesting. here's where i'm at thus far, i wouldn't doubt some colors being adjusted , but i'll probably keep mostly with what i have going on. the second version with the jagged background lines was nixed, which was a bummer. until then.

tee.

printed off a few shirts of a design that i threw together some time ago. thought that these would be perfect for sassy pre-teens, just like the figure modeling this one here (my sister). i'm thinking of setting up an online shop of sorts to sell these and some other things, but i still have about ten or so of these left, mostly girls cuts.

reworked poster

that last lotus poster didn't completely fly with the band, so i was asked to change some things and since the first show had sold out even before the completion of this thing, they added another date the day after. my own group that i'm involved with has a gig coming up in the next few weeks as well, so i put together a quick flyer for that from some sketches that i had around. bing!
