STICK UP FOR ME – MIX CD ARTWORK 2009
Most everyone who is anyone should have their copies now so here is the artwork for my annual mix CD that I send out to friends and family. Click on images for larger views.
In a New York Minute Poster Design
This was a poster design for a non-existent gallery show I did back in 2006. It’s too bad it wasn’t a real show. I would have gone…
One Day I Will Be Treated Like a Designer…
Yes. This is how I feel most of the time these days. I am about tired of it. So I made this. High quality prints available…
The Big Plastic Head Music Mix 2008
Oh YES! I FINALLY I finished my 2008 mix CD. Every year, I take all of the music that was released in the previous year and distill the songs down to a manageable fifteen to twenty tracks. I burn them on to a bunch of CDs and send them out to all my friends. WAY better than Christmas cards I think. This is year four or five and I do really enjoy doing it.
I also make a swell original cover for each “release” because God knows I need more portfolio pieces that reflect the work I WANT to do, not the work that I am forced to do.

Secret Bar Sticker
This is a sticker design that I created for Thanksgiving. I would tell you more about it but, like it says, I would have to kick your ass first. If you know what I am talking about, you are a very lucky person.
4th of July Poster
This was a rush job I had this year. Normally I do not get to do any print work at the design house where I work. I am merely a pixel pusher (HEAD pixel pusher actually) in our web department so this was a nice change.
Fiddler’s Dream
Design and concept for “Fiddlers Dream” by Greg Spatz
RACKA RACKA RACKA CD
This was the artwork that I created for a mix CD that I sent out to friends. It was SO FUN to create and I think it came out very successful. The music rocks too.
Mighty Squirrel CD
Design and concept for Mighty Squirrel – 2007
(Center Squirrel Art by Caridwen Irvine-Spatz)
Yosemite Events Poster
It is what it is. A poster showing the Fall events around Yosemite valley. (Psst…I took the picture, too!)
The John Muir Trail Book Cover
A book cover that I designed for a ficticious book. I would have read it. Hey! That’s me on the cover!
Moleskribe – Handwriting Font Design
This is a handwriting font I designed one day when I had a bit of free time. Crazy, huh? What kind of geek designs fonts on his day off?
The Lost Coast CD
Principal Photography for the album “The Lost Coast” by Ivan Rosenberg. The image was taken with an old Yashica 44 that I found at a thrift store.
