I was featured in another online article on DeviantArt for my design “Integrate the Type.”

Today I implemented a targeted custom Google search at the footer of every page. It’s cool because it gears your search string to the creative arts such as design, photography, animation, and writing. Best of all, it returns search results right within Groggie.com! Give it a shot and let me know if you have any [...]

“A Darkness” has been accepted into the Anton Art Center’s exhibition called “Buy This” in Mt. Clemens, Michigan. It will be featured from September 12th until October 3rd.

I made this after spending four hours making all sorts of other designs and ultimately having nothing to show for it.

I just designed what will be our full logo for Our 11th Hour (the “wings” design will remain as a little identifier). The idea was to subtly reference a clock and I wanted to use my usual minimalist style. I just really like how everything lines up; most notably the “TH” lines up with the [...]

Not sure if anyone would want to use this, but I made it for myself and figure I’d put it up anyway. It’s just a desktop wallpaper featuring the new Groggie.com logo. It’s 1440×900, and I’ll gladly make other aspect ratios if anyone actually wants one.

“Integrate the Type” has been accepted into the Art Kudos International Exhibition which begins on August 15th. It will be viewable at www.artkudos.com once the opening date arrives.
(8/15/08 Update) The exhibition is now live at: http://www.artkudos.com/2008/186_1.html

I designed this one around the lyrics of the song I wrote for Our 11th Hour with the same name.

The theme behind this compilation album is that the topic is randomized (via Wikipedia), and musicians write original songs based on that article. This time the topic is the Panama Canal. This is the album art I made for it.

This is the album cover for the Musician’s Lounge compilation where song lengths are all 30 seconds max. I thought this was a neat concept for that idea.

I’ve sort of reached a niche for my recent design style- not sure if that’s a good or bad thing, but I think most artists have periods where their design traits have similarities. I am glad that I found a style that I really like, so I guess it is a good thing. Let’s see [...]

(7/1/2008 Update) This poster was selected to be licensed for sale at PostersForHumans.com. I’ll link to my poster’s page once it’s up.

I thought I’d make a simple poster design for my band. This is a little banner with the band name tangled with some vines.

A darkness as black as… Oh, I don’t know… Oil? Inspired by Kazimir Malevich’s “Black Square.”

“I fly in dreams, I know it is my privilege, I do not recall a single situation in dreams when I was unable to fly. To execute every sort of curve and angle with a light impulse, a flying mathematics — that is so distinct [...]
