Oregon Dukkah Logo

Standing...

Oregon Dukkah is an addictive dry dip of hazelnuts and exotic spices. It’s a great product and I was honored when the owner approached me to redesign their packaging and brand. We dived into research and established the brand identity of Oregon Dukkah. With that knowledge, we developed this logo, website and packaging. Since then, we’ve developed a whole slew of items like sell sheets, business cards, advertising and letterheads.

Standing…

Standing...

I painted this for an art show at The Office, in Portland, OR in 2007. It was curated by Richard Jones, of United Design Group. Richard’s been a huge asset to the art community of Portland and it was an honor to be in the show. The concept was to paint on album covers incorporating an existing element of the printed graphics. It was challenging, but it was fun. It really pushed my boundaries and I enjoy the outcome. Sorry if it freaks anybody out.

Sundance Movie Poster

Four Sheets to the Wind

This is the movie poster I helped design with the Director, Sterlin Harjo for the Movie, Four Sheets to the Wind.” I don’t know who is credited for the photo, but all I did was give it an interesting crop, lay out the text and slap the Sundance Laurels on it. I got this gig through Cheyenne Fletcher, a great friend, who was the Executive Producer for this film and Sterlin Harjo’s first film, “Goodnight Irene.” This film debuted at the Sundance Film Festival in January of 2007 and received multiple standing ovations. I owe great thanks to Cheyenne Fletcher, Chad Burress of Indion Films and Sterlin Harjo for allowing me to be involved in such a great project.

A T-Shirt illustration for Stall Gear, a kayak clothing company based out of Oklahoma. I had to separate the colors for the screen press … geez that was hard.

Ills Westcoast Tour

Ills

I designed this poster for The Ills’ west coast tour. They broke up, which sucks, but they were a great band. Download “How Much You Suck and We Rock”.

We also did some VERY fast handbills for tour dates. It’s not my best work, but I’m still quite fond of the war planes dropping OMs.

Brain Food Wallpaper

This is the second wallpaper that I’ve done for Patrick McNeil and his amazing website, Design Melt Down. There you can find an extensive archive of great websites, design tutorials and endless chit chat about the latest trends. Thanks again to Patrick for letting me be involved with such a magical thing. Check out Chocolate Lovin’ to see the first one I did for him.

Poster for The Ills & Mad Happy.

The Ills have apparently broken up, which sucks, big time. I guess it’s part of that Norman curse. Check out “Wake Up” by Mad Happy.

Hosty Duo Poster

Hosty Duo Poster - Portland, OR

Back in 2005, Michelle and I were living in Portland, OR and started to really miss some of the great music of our home state, Oklahoma. So, we devised a plan and were able to book a two-night, weekend gig for The Hosty Duo to play at Kelly’s Olympian in downtown, Portland.

Now, this was a huge treat because The Hosty Duo plays some of the greatest music to bless God’s RED Earth. All of the classics were played, including “Chewbacca” and “Johnny Cash.” Although I’m quite fond of “Opium Whore”, myself. Download their music from iTunes.

Oh yeah, and I illustrated the poster using Illustrator CS. I even hit the streets with 200 printed posters, but I was no match for the hundreds of other bands playing that same night.

Kroger Edamame

Kroger Edamame

This image was used for the Naturally Preferred frozen edamames. Sold in your local Kroger or Freddy’s. Art directed this image while at KO. It was shot at Polara Studios with all natural light. There’s something about natural light that just makes food look overwhelmingly scrumptious. Thanks to Michael Shay’s photography and Lucy Radys’ food styling for making me look good.
