Spacecraft sticker sheet invite 2008

Spacecraft sticker sheet invite 2008! Really happy about being invited to take part in this project. Spacecraft is putting out another artist sticker sheet with 35-40 peoples work on individual stickers in a poster format.

If you live in Seattle or the out lying areas you might have noticed the space craft "snow cat" stickers just about everywhere. They like stickers for sure. I will have more details later about the sticker showing and designs.

Photos of The Link Program at Cornish

The High school students and people at Link where cool, in fact most of the volunteer folks where kids that where once in the program themselves. The Link program is a great grass roots program that deserves more attention for the work they do. The students that stay in the monthly programs participate in an end of the year art show at Cornish, which also qualifies them for scholarships at art schools. The link is also partly funded by the Seattle AIGA chapter. Terry Marks from tmarks design was also participating in the event, which was fun to meet. That really was a great time. Thanks Link and students.

The Link Program at Cornish School of Design

I will be doing a talk this Saturday, 16th 9:00 AM at Cornish school of design on behalf of a non-profit, The Link Program. The Link Program helps bring art education and resources to high school kids wanting to get into art college. The topic of this Saturdays talk will be about skateboard design. They asked me to chat about what it means to be a graphic designer and how I got into it.
Really excited about this one. The Link bought a bunch of blank skateboard decks for the kids to draw, paint, and generally get crazy with. Should be fun. Photos soon.

Todd Bratrud

Hey Everybody,
Damn, Europe was a great time. Having Jet lag was tough last week. I will be posting some photos later to share. But until then to keep your interest, check out this video with illustrator/artist Todd Bratrud. You may recognize some of his work from Consolidated skateboards where he was the art director/illustrator. That is where I was first introduced to his style.
Volcom did a video interview with Todd Bratrud, in support of his upcoming worldwide art show tour.

Also check out Burlesque of North America, a collective of artist/designers he works with.
Oh and also, Teenage Runaways. His skateboard wheel company.
