This gallery includes several pieces I worked on for Espolón tequila, including their limited edition, high-end bottle for Añejo X; an all black bottle that paid tribute to the ancient craft of Barro Negro (black clay). This project was featured on TheDieline.com.
I also created several murals that served as outdoor advertising, as well as branding and design for social events such as Cocktail Fights (a competition pitting local bartenders against each other to create the best Espolòn concoctions) and the Espolón BlacMarket (an event once covered by Vice).
Steven Noble illustrated Espolón’s incredibly cool logo and labels.

In naming his new solo project, Shane Conerty knew that he wanted a name that would capture his genre-bending "electronic doo wop" and pair well with my mixed media artwork. Thus "Color Collage" was born.

When my talented friends in the band "Now You See Them" asked me to design the album art for their first full length record, I was flattered and immediately jumped at the oppurtunity. Their songs are folksy, nostalgic and fun while remaining humble, emotional, and honest. I wanted to create art work that was as bold and impactful as their music, but with an old-timey and comfortable feel. I began with a limited color scheme and a combination of different original and found images to create a bizarre yet beautiful landscape based off the phrase "As above, so below".

This gallery features various hand-made and digital artwork I’ve made over the years.

This gallery features multiple approaches for proposed rebranding of Forty Creek Whisky. The hand-drawn style conveys an approachable feel for the brand while still feeling premium and authentic. We wanted to create a unique look that would stand out amongst a very crowded whisky marketplace. With a rugged, outdoorsy aesthetic, we urged the consumer to disconnect from the digital world and reconnect with people and nature, reminding them to enjoy the simple things and “Know What Matters”.
