During the last half of 2009, I joined up with the Nemo HQ crew to work on a series of Salomon Snow catalogs, the largest undertaking being this behemoth with 100+ pages and numerous multi-page fold-outs. When I started working on this project (which spanned over a month), the art direction was pretty much in [...]

Half of my life is spent doing research. One of the projects I’ve been working on is a look book and this is some of the inspiration I’ve pulled: an Urban Outfitters catalog page, a Warhol postcard and an Urban Outfitters curtain hang tag.

Later, [...]

Besides the obvious changes including a Twitter feed and a wider center column, I thought I’d point out a few new additions. [...]

Welcome to a very brief Week in Pictures – I’ve had a crazy busy week and between the nonstop rain, running from agency to agency and trying to wrap my head around two look books, three media kits, countless logos and a pile of email, picture snappin’ has suffered. That’s life sometimes! Cities Bag in [...]
