The Week in Pictures: 1.8.10

Friday, January 8th, 2010

Welcome to Wolfgang. Our house finally has a name: Wolfgang Manor. Honestly, my brother and I usually aren’t posed on the couch like this when people stop by to visit. We just did a shoot for a Swatch / POP Magazine collaboration and took a few extra photos with one of the setups.

Passports. My brother […]

Black & White Collages Circa 2007

Thursday, November 5th, 2009

I was recently cleaning off my computer and came across a folder of collages I made back in 2007 as an experiment for Black & White Graphic Insight. Working with your hands opens up your mind to think about design in a completely different way. After sitting in front of the computer for the majority […]

Jay Floyd: Nubby Collages

Sunday, October 18th, 2009

My friend Jay at Nemo HQ made these two awesome Nubby spreads and I thought I’d share. I love seeing how other designers interpret my work. Thanks to Jay’s mad design skills and hard partying ways, there is never a dull moment at the office.

Art For Sale!

Sunday, October 4th, 2009

Over the weekend, I was digging through a box in my basement and found two pieces of art from 2007 that were never listed in my online store. Here’s your chance to own a one of a kind piece of artwork for a great price! The backsides of both are labeled, signed, and dated.

Flashback: Heat Of Summer, 2007

Monday, April 27th, 2009

Heat of Summer was a quick collage series that I did on hardboard during the summer of 2007. In a way, it was a practice run before committing fully to Modern Baroque.

After the whirlwind that was three solo shows last year, I took six months off but have finally felt the urge to dive back into […]

Ask Nubby #19: Developing an Art Series & Choosing Work for Shows

Wednesday, February 25th, 2009

When putting an art show together, how do you chose which pieces you should put in and how they all go together? I’m having a hard time of it!

When viewing gallery-based art shows, you’ll notice that the featured work is usually grouped together in some manner whether that be by genre, subject, medium or […]

ArtWorks Postcards

Saturday, January 10th, 2009

Talk about a blast from the past! I just got an envelope in the mail from the nonprofit arts organization Artworks with a letter and a stack of postcards of one of the works I donated back in 2007 for the Secret Artworks event. My piece was chosen as one of the 100 best out […]

Wayward Wife Poster

Monday, December 1st, 2008

A few months ago, I was invited to participate in a group show at Sequential Art Gallery. The pitch was to recreate a classic pulp fiction book cover as a poster-sized piece of art. After doing some digging, I found a 60s era book with the intriguing title The Wayward Wife and this is my interpretation!

Kiss & Tell Poster

Tuesday, August 5th, 2008

A few weeks ago, when I heard that Nemo was hosting an art show called Stapled & Torn, I knew I wanted to make a poster. The one rule regarding entries was that they had to advertise something (no art prints allowed). Instead of promoting a band, I decided to focus on my friend Seze’s […]

The Stapled and Torn Poster Show at Nemo Design

Sunday, August 3rd, 2008

On Friday night, the Stapled and Torn show opened at Nemo. Around 15 artists submitted their screen printed posters and our walls were nearly covered! The turnout was huge and it was nice to be in such great company. Here are some of the sights:
