i have been working at designing and creating the web for over 12 years. after over nine years of working with clients on projects of all sizes, here is a small collection of my work. to filter the entries by project type, please select a category below.

father’s day card 2009

while helping clean out my parents house i found some old photo albums. i borrowed them to scan in some of the pictures. then father’s day came around, so i designed this card with pictures of my dad throughout the years. he loved it.

christmas card 2007

i wanted this Christmas card design to be a fun play of urban and traditional. so the “star” is more symbolic in this design.

fuller still – poster and press kit

bands need good marketing pieces that can easily be identified as “theirs.” i’ve had the privilege of creating nearly every piece of fuller still’s band marketing. this upcoming concert poster and press kit follow very closely to the design of the cd and webpage.

fuller still – tshirt design

the minnesota based band, fuller still, needed a simple one color tshirt design to sell on their tour. and keeping with the key photo from the photo shoot and cd cover design, this design was born. the client noted that they were a huge hit and sold out very quickly.

christmas card – 2006

i never buy cards at the store. why? because i can make them myself. :-) here is the card i designed and printed for Christmas 2006. and yes, the tree is completely hand drawn.

joshua vandercar – cd design

a friend of mine (who goes by the name “ua”) wanted a simple cd insert for a cd he recorded himself. i modeled the design after his bare bones voice and guitar sound. i also really wanted to carry out that “hand made” feel of the cd production throughout the design as well.

the restoration project is a colorado based band/non-profit organization that i’ve done several projects for. this design was a concert poster to send to upcoming show venues so they could advertise the concert.

tammy ann winn – t-shirt design

this is one of the many projects i did for a local milwaukee singer-songwriter, tammy ann winn. the goal was a simple one color tshirt design that was not “album-specific” so that she could sell these even after her next cd release. the client wanted a similar design as another client of mine, with the “sketchy outline” feel. several color combinations were created for reference.

watermark 2004-05 cd

the theme was “calm the storm”, and instead of doing a stereotypical display of “storm”, i decided to create this cd cover (and the design on the cd itself) using only text.
