Abandon All Hope

Modified old Halloween design to create something better i think

The Psycho Anaylist

Transformed my comic book design into a tee, very fun process.

This is my entry for the Shepard Fairey "Love Unites" contest over at Deviant Art

Ode to Stuffing

Ode to Stuffing

(based on Pablo Neruda's "Ode to Wine")

Nut flavored stuffing,

Fruit flavored stuffing,

Stuffing with celery

Or stuffing with sausage,

Stuffing,

Fat child

Of America,

Stuffing, warm

As a fluffy blanket,

Soft

As malleable foam,

Stuffing, immensely fashioned

And filling my hunger,

Loving,

Pastoral,

Never has one turkey contained,

One plate, one fork,

You are profound, lethargic,

At the most, you are enough for many,

Every time,

You feed on mortal

Consciousness;

Your weight moves us

from couch to couch,

liberator of activity,

and we sweat

thanksgiving beads;

your

glorious

winter coat

is majestic,

blood thickens in the shoots,

digestion incites the day,

much is left

over of your mass essence.

Stuffing

Sits in the stomach, happiness

Burst through buttons like a charging rhino,

Hem crumbling,

And belt buckles,

Cave undone,

As abundance protrudes.

A bowl of stuffing, and sweat pants on me

In bed,

Cried my emotions.

Let the stuffing bowl

Add flavor of its own.

My darling, suddenly

The waist of my pants

Becomes even wider

Then the pant legs allow,

My thigh a whole turkey,

My calf’s its thighs,

The gleam of sweat lights my brow,

And my navel is a bloated balloon

Fueled by the indigestion of my belly,

Sleep is unavoidable

Cascade of eye lids,

Smells create saliva,

The magical embrace of the couch.

But you are more than dinner,

The pleasant aroma,

The taste of heaven,

More than the stuffing of old;

You are

The tradition of Americans,

Bread consistency,

Praise of culinary,

Abundance of leftovers.

I like at the table,

When we are eating,

The flavor of a dish

Of plain stuffing.

Eat it,

And remember in every

Chew,

In every fork load,

In every spoonful,

Your mother labored

To fill the bowl with stuffing;

And in her motherhood,

Let the children remember

To thank their mother,

The crafter and producer of the stuffing.

Christmas Carol Poster

Christmas Carol production at Lindenwood University. Asked for a "darker" feel, but i do go to a very conservative school so "darker" isn't that dark. I think i managed to make it dark enough yet still appealing to the MidWest Theater crowd. Fun to make, especially working in typography. That and lighting everything correctly were the two hardest things.

Why? Wallpaper

text as graphics piece for class

25th Annual Putnam National Spelling Bee Poster Design

work i did for Lindenwood University Theater Department, 25th Annual Putnam National Spelling Bee. Illustrated three characters, tool forever but learned a lot.

elemental text

did this for my computer art class - assignment: text as graphics
wanted to play around more with the space retro futurism style and basic design elements

TeeZen design, The Heart of Life

finished this at an ungodly hour but had fun playing around with colors and making new flourishes.
"The Heart of Life" is about the things that i value in living. Some of the symbols are used alot but i find different significance than i think what you usually get at first recognition.
