Vic Thrill And His Circus

I just saw Vic Thrill perform an amazing late-night set last night at Glasslands in Williamsburg along with BamIAm on video projections and trapeze luminary Tanya Gagne (or T-Pow) of the Wau-Wau Sisters. It reminded me that I need to post the poster I did for their last gig at Galapagos in Brooklyn, as TEAM SPIRIT ANIMAL SQUAD. I was quite proud of this one. I hope they can take the logo design onward to T-shirts, etc. I also did a poster for Tanya's follow-up show with her students at the Trapeze Loft.

My Lifeline

I'd like to give a shout-out to CG Textures, probably the most useful digital art-making resource I've found on the net. I'm nothing without my textures, and they make it easy and free (with a generous download limit) to find hi-res materials, all search-able and clearly grouped.

Po-Mo Pillow

Pillowmaker BennyandHeidi favorited me on Etsy and I immediately favorited back after seeing the vibrant and creative patchwork sewn into every item for sale.

GET LOST

I'm not much of a font design sentimentalist, and type-as-art isn't usually for my taste. I tend to find it kind of self-indulgent, even if it's pretty smart-looking. That said, I was totally won over by this GET LOST print by Douglas Wilson. Every one is printed on a different vintage map. You can buy them here.

The Badger

I happened on the beautiful art work of Eduardo Recife and found myself entranced. His work uses familiar themes and images in ways that feel very whimsical but haunting at the same time.
