The Week in Pictures: 1.8.10

Posted on January 8th, 2010 by by Nubby

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 [...]

Black & White Collages Circa 2007

Posted on November 5th, 2009 by by Nubby

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

Posted on October 18th, 2009 by by Nubby

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.

Flashback: Heat Of Summer, 2007

Posted on April 27th, 2009 by by Nubby

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 [...]

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

Posted on February 25th, 2009 by by Nubby

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

Posted on January 10th, 2009 by by Nubby

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

Posted on December 1st, 2008 by by Nubby

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 [...]

Black & White Graphic Insight: DOA

Posted on November 11th, 2008 by by Nubby

DOA, 2008 Collage and resin on wood 13.5 x 9.5 inches I originally intended to show this piece last month at my solo show, but ran behind schedule. Better late than never! This series is offically closed; I’m in the planning stages for a new body of very colorful work that will ramp up early [...]
