Green Patriot Poster Book

It's finally here! I just got my copy of the Green Patriot Poster Book - woohoo! It is a gorgeous artboook - featuring many wonderful designers. There are 50 full page posters that you can tear out and frame if you like! The entire book was printed in the USA on recycled paper with... you guessed it, soy inks.

I was very excited to see my design on the Contents page! (bottom left) OMG! It is also included in a collage in the interior.

One of my faves is the poster of a glacier, Al Gore with a melting face and the text "Shit Be Melting". It is all kinds of awesome.

The book can be purchased from www.artbook.com and proceeds to to support the work of The Canary Project.

Design on Fire

It's that time of year again - when the Burning Man will burn! Although I will only be there in spirit this year, this handy chart is a lot of fun to look at and even learn a few things you didn't know. How much do they spend on porta-potties every year? How tall was the Man? How many aluminum cans were recycled?

Flint Hahn of xmasons.com is the genius behind this image - check out his site for some other fun and funky stuff...like pants made out of stuffed animals, or a guide on how to defeat any type of monster. Thanks Flint!

Local Swap!

Another poster design...yes. This one is for the Los Angeles Swap -A- Rama and besides being a really fun design, with cute hipster cat people sewing up a storm, it also reminds us of a great idea for the holidays. Instead of buying gifts from big chain stores, shop at your smaller local stores, support your neighbors in this tough economy, make your own gifts or buy handmade.

For instance... check out this sweet shirt I found for my honey at the last Redtail clothing exchange. Perfect for nights rocking the ambient music in the tipi, or just howling at the moon! You may just find the perfect gift at the next swap/ exchange/ handmade fair!

Nevada Day Parade

I just came upon this poster for the Nevada Day Parade in Reno - apparently the Burning Man folks that entered the parade won first prize for novelty float! The parade theme was "Nevada salutes President Lincoln". Of course, in Burning Man style that means President Lincoln turns steam punk and rides a horseless couch.

I just LOVE this poster - the old fashioned type style, the map and the way funky picture of Lincoln himself, as you've always know he should have looked in those hot shades and robot - like gloves, is just so wonderful!
