THIS MONDAY, SPACED VELVET @ Skully's, don't miss it!


I did this poster for my friends SPACED VELVET. They're a great psychedelic stoner alternative rock band that formed recently in Columbus, Ohio. Altogether, they are a load of talent and something new and unique to the Columbus music scene, definitely worth the small fee of $5. Not to mention you get to see TeamNate, another talented group from Toledo, Ohio. And if that's not enough, DJ Self Help (Dance or Die) and Mr.Leg will be there!

Nerd Bird

My friend Lyman and I met as interns for a comedy company called Slapstik. We worked together designing the website and thought that we could make a couple bucks starting our own company. So I designed this cute little logo.

Pantyhose Project






This new project is made of pantyhose stuffed with Poly Fil, which is just the regular plush in stuffed animals and cheap pillows. I cut the legs off the pantyhose and then sewed them back together, creating long tubes that I intertwined. I wanted the form to be more bulbous than pretzel-looking so I began to control the shape with string. It's not finished yet, I'm thinking of turning it into a back pack. I'm hoping that it will resemble a spider's egg sack.

Spaced Velvet






My best friend is in the great new band called Spaced Velvet. I designed a flyer for them but then decided that I wanted to make a simple poster design or logo. So I came up with these two.

Egg Caviar




"Egg Caviar"
10"x10"x3"



Invisible Egg


"Invisible Egg"
11"x14"

I used an old canvas that I found as work. I painted the canvas a flat lilac purple and then laid a crocheted table piece on top and spray painted it with baby pink. I then cut out an egg shape out of card stock and spray painted a thin coat of white...fading it out on the corners. Around the edges I used puffy paint to create small raised dots.

DaMN You're PretTy!

"Damn, You're Pretty"

Puffy Nips


"Puffy Nips"
11"x14"

I found a series of photographs in Playboy that were all black and white and rather beautiful. The background was painted with white acrylic. I found a bunch of lipstick samples and made marks all over the center of the canvas. I placed the image in the center and framed the top and the bottom with lace.

Sorry, I'm just so Sad.

"Sorry I'm Just So Sad"
8.5"x11"

To create the smokey background I laid string randomly over beige paper and then sprayed it lightly with baby pink spray paint. The dinosaur skull is from a National Geographic.
