a lot of hair


For one night only some acad VC grads took the stage for a little
karaoke magic. It looked and sounded an awful lot like this but
with less pink eye shadow.
I couldn't help but feel the girl who was preforming a spice girls
track alone was out of line, its all about team work.

in other news my brother found out the number one song on
my date of birth is:

Schools out! Summer Projects begin!

Hello All!

So with all the school projects all said and done I will have some extra time for some new projects!

Currently on the Chopping Block:

a volunteer poster for the Calgary Pride 2010! A friend asked if I would be interested in making a poster for pride and I jumped at the opportunity! Meeting this weekend to throw around some ideas. So far I am thinking cut paper. Suggestion by friend includes unicorn.

Fine art friend Anna Archy needs wordmark.

Self Branding: website update coming quick fast! Like lightning, actually.

Cracking open the Amy Sedaris cookbook and making some good old fashioned cupcakes!


I leave you now with a page from the sketchbook as well as the front and back of Stephanie's business card that I designed. Stephanie is an amazing documentary photographer that I have already blogged about like three times! But here is the finished business card. we also made postcards, coming soon images of those.
Stephanie loves the stamp and has been finding more exciting and less conventional methods of use, like stamping her husband Matt, right on Stephanie!






a side note I wish there was a way to cap the number of exclamation points per post... Whenever I read back through these before I post them I consider the zealousness of these exclamation points and think "Really, is this too much?!!"

portfolio show.

Portfolio show, portfolio show, here comes the portfolio show!

So we had a meeting about portfolio show on tuesday! Exciting stuff, its crazy to say that the four years at acad have gone so quick. And I will be a graduate in twenty some days!

Basically the portfolio show is like a coming out debutante ball but instead of gowns and stair cases there is professional dress and a coy pond (or a turtle pond). Its the ACAD 2010 class introduction to the design community.
On tuesday we were busy stuffing envelopes with the poster invites. I got a paper cut.




Super rad poster by Alex and Robin, those are real moths by the way and a whole lotta photo shop magic.


Last time i was a graduate I looked like this....
