Countdown… 11 Days Until My Debut at SURTEX 2013!

I'll be making my debut at SURTEX 2013 in 11 days - whoop whoop! SURTEX is the global B2B marketplace for original art and design that draws thousands of exhibitors and attendees from 49 countries.

Below is a sneak preview of some of my newer collections. If you are going to be at SURTEX, The National Stationery Show and / or the Creative & Lifestyle Arts show, stop by and visit me! I'm booth #333.

SURTEX 2013

That's right - I'll be exhibiting at SURTEX May 19-21, 2013. I'll be posting updates as I prepare for this fantastic show!

Throwback Project... YesPleaseMore Installation

Back in May 2010 I created an in-store installation for the 2nd YesPleaseMore Pop Up Store in Denver, CO. Below are process pics I never posted... until now.

The installation ended up housing my products as well as "Turbulance", a collaborative print between myself and Snowblinded (aka Anthony Cozzi).

Design by Colorado Exhibit at DIA

My design business, gneural, is part of an exhibit at Denver International Airport titled "Design by Colorado". The exhibition will be up through February 2012 and is open to the public. Below are a few photos of my case (sorry for the mediocre photo quality).

munny, munny, munny... MUNNY!

Just recently finished my 3rd Munny ever (process pics and final product below). It will be available for auction at this year's Bordo Bello, which will be held on September 30th at RedLine Gallery in Denver. Such a great event and for a wonderful cause - get your tickets, like, NOW!

My Biggest Drawing to Date

Whew! I've finally completed my biggest drawing to date. I spent somewhere around 22 hours total on this baby. It feels good to have her done. The drawing is 29" x 22" and the paper is a light blue printmaking paper. No pencils, rulers or any other drawing aids were used to create this beauty - strictly hand drawn with a sharpie and micron pens. Below are detail images of the piece.

If you click HERE you can view the step-by-step process of how the drawing came to be. Granted I'm not the greatest photographer, but [hopefully] you'll get the idea.
