ECO LINE website teaser


Eco Line website teaser is live!
http://www.ecolinepaint.com/

I made this little coming soon page to get the info out for Eco Line. It basically mirrored the business cards I made for them. I will be working on the full site after the New Year.
Happy when a plan comes into effect!

One Ball Jay catalog session


Just got back from a serious catalog session with Matt at One Ball Jay. This is how the conversation went Friday night at 5:30 PM.
“Ring-Ring, hey Shawn, Matt here at One Ball. Can you come down to my house and help me crank out our winter 07-08 catalog by Monday afternoon, sorry for the late notice!?”

Yup, that’s how it went down. 35 hours, 68 pages later in 2.5 days we finished business! This was my second One Ball Jay catalog in the past few years. They do what they want! One Ball Jay is great, founded by Matt as a surf wax project as a teenager. Then he figured out how to make the first snowboard wax at the dawn of the snowboard age. A true DIY’er! Buy his all his products! Check out his site here!

What is the Story of Stuff?


From its extraction through sale, use and disposal, all the stuff in our lives affects communities at home and abroad, yet most of this is hidden from view. The Story of Stuff is a 20-minute, fast-paced, fact-filled look at the underside of our production and consumption patterns. The Story of Stuff exposes the connections between a huge number of environmental and social issues, and calls us together to create a more sustainable and just world. It'll teach you something, it'll make you laugh, and it just may change the way you look at all the stuff in your life forever.

ECO LINE



Just finished up a logo for ECO LINE Painting and Home Project Management.
I am feeling pretty darn happy with the end result of this one.

ECO LINE is a new company formed by some friends of mine with green-minded painting and building sense. Located in Ballard, they wanted the design of the logo to look industrial to celebrate the blue collar Ballard pride with a hint of green leaf to show the ECO friendly company minded goals. The future is looking good! I will be working on a full package for this company next.

Capita Snowboards First Kiss



Capita Snowboards put out their first full length DVD, First Kiss.
Inside the packaging is a book titled, Capita Super Corporation; Corporate Handbook. Filled with little art sections done by various artist, designers, photographers, and people communicating random thoughts. Blue asked me if I would do a page and I was happy to do it. Capita is a great free thinking, independent, and progressive company.


As a funny joke my lady got me a pack of nudy girls playing cards a while ago. I thought it would be interesting to take a few choice ones to a copy machine and get crazy with the halftones. This one in particular had a really strong glare after I played with the darkness/lightness functions on the photocopy machine. A while back I had some bug designs I was doing for a shirt for Marginal Way. These little creepy crawlers where meant to be on this I think. A large screen print would be ideal one day. Maybe?
