My friend, Christopher Farrell is a violist with the Nashville Symphony who recently recorded the first album of his own compositions of chamber music. He asked me to create artwork and design the layout for his CD cover. I was so excited to work on this project! I'm a former musician who is still a huge music lover and I've always wanted to do an album cover. Chris' compositions are fantastic. Please visit his website to learn more about him, and if you love classical music, I recommend buying his album, Works for Chamber Ensemble.
Winter Carnival Poster
My town, Steamboat Springs, Colorado has had an annual winter carnival for over 100 years! But starting in 2016, Steamboat Sotheby's Realty began sponsoring a poster created by a different local artist each year to be sold as a fundraiser for Steamboat Springs Winter Sports Club. And they chose me for the first year! It was a real honor and I had a great time making this large poster. You can read an interview here about creating the poster and a Steamboat Today newspaper article here.
ReTree 2016
ReTree Steamboat is a project of the Yampa Valley Sustainability Council. Each year the Steamboat Springs, Colorado community plants trees with expert guidance from the Colorado State Forest service. This is such a great program and I was really happy to design the artwork for their t-shirts and poster in 2016. You can read an article from the Steamboat Today here.
