Tonight...

Here is the final three color design for Jolie Holland's show at the Swedish American Hall in SF. The print will be available soon in my store... watch for it!

Jolie Holland!

Very pleased to announce my first showprint for 2012, and the first one in quite some time! I will be designing and printing for singer/songwriter Jolie Holland playing February 24 at the Swedish American Hall, upstairs from Cafe Du Nord in SF. I have been a huge fan of Jolie's traditionally inspired music for many years, so I am really looking forward to the show! The roughs and final design will be posted soon, watch for them.

HOOT! Flyer for Pegasus Solano

I was happy to complete another flyer for local independent booksellers, Pegasus Books on Solano Ave. This one is for their open mic night at the shop, featuring lots of great unexpected talent. The posters are up all over town, and I think they make them available to the public at the events.

Handmade 2011 featuring John Paul Leimone

John Paul Leimone is an Oakland based industrial designer and craftsman who has recently started his own line of hip and low impact/high quality manufactured wood clocks. The "Monster" Clocks are fine examples of function with flair, especially for the young or old hipster on your list... Check out his Etsy store for more info and photos...

Full Moons, Empty Pockets

Here is the keyline, one color version of my 2012 "Full Moon, Empty Pockets" Calendar, a halfway serious look ahead to the New Year. This print will be available in my Etsy Store soon and also for sale this coming Saturday at the 25th Street Collective's Holiday Happening Craft Fair in Oakland, 2-8pm @ 477 25th Street, Oakland between Broadway and Telegraph. Come say hey!

Handmade 2011 featuring Nathaniel Russell

One of my favorite print makers and illustrators is Nathaniel Russell, who I first discovered through Mollusk Surf Shop in SF. Nat's simple, keenly designed characters and lettering has a great "look what I found" quality, and he has a nice variety of stuff, including an awesome 2012 calendar for sale in his online store... Check it out!

Thanks SubRosa!

Big thanks to local coffee shop SubRosa and all the great people who came by the sidewalk craft sale today on 40th Street in Oakland. A great group of vendors too, I met lots of new friends. Happy Holidays to all and keep supporting handmade!
