Buffalo Lighthouse

A logo project, re-worked for a "Miami of the North" feel.

Barton House


The latest addition to a series of prints celebrating Frank Lloyd Wright's work in Buffalo. The Barton House is part of the recently restored Martin House complex- an absolute must-see on your next visit to the Queen City. The image above is based on Wright's design for art-glass cabinet doors in the Barton House; not quite as well-known as the "Tree of Life" windows in the main residence, but beautiful nonetheless.

Mavericks Logo

Another recent project: a family of logos for the Medaille College Mavericks. I went to see the logo painted on the gym floor, which was cool- until I noticed a mistake in the stenciling. My left hand reflexively reached for the Command-Undo keys, but they don't work on paint and wood. Luckily the guys were able to fix it before the polyurethane went down. Thanks to the folks at Medaille and to Sue Hough at Travers Collins.

Tintin Bookends

Found at the Crow Bookstore in Burlington, Vermont: these amazing hand-carved Tintin bookends. Unfortunately (or perhaps fortunately) they are not for sale.
