Disguised As Birds "New Demons" EP

This is an EP sleeve/cover for the Milwaukee band Disguised As Birds. The final design is a combination of ideas that came together over the course of a few meetings at the band's practice space. Responsible for Art Direction and Design. Birds logo by Eric Krueger.

Type Treatments

A sampling of various logos, t-shirt graphics and typographic treatments.

Show Posters

The Royal Bureau loves doing show posters for local (and sometimes not-so-local) musicians. These are some of our favorites.

Pay1040.com Web Site

Design comps for the tax payment web site, Pay1040.com. The site will should go live later this year (provided the IRS has no problems with it) – just in time for you to pay your taxes.

WMSE "Fierce Tiger" Shirt

WMSE approached me to do an illustration for their 2009 Spring Membership Drive and this is what I came up with ... quite an honor for me!

Disguised As Birds "Seeds" CD

CD layout and design for the Milwaukee band, Disguised As Birds. Responsible for all layout and design (Birds’ logo by Eric Krueger).

Various/Collage

When I've got nothing better to do (seriously) I like to painstakingly cut out random stuff and create collages. I used to do it by hand but the digital age has sped up productivity and the interwebs have opened up an entire cornocoppia of awesome images.

The Wild West

Editorial illustrations for a small weekly entertainment newspaper in New England.

The 2010 WMSE Spring Pledge Drive starts today and you really should be supporting them with your hard-earned dollars because without your hard-earned dollars there wouldn't be good music or cool things like Radio Summer Camp.

Stormtroopers Doing Shit could possibly be one of the best uses for Tumblr that I've seen.
