Festival Poster




Back in July I received an email to discuss an opportunity to create the poster for the Festival of the Arts, and even though they hadn't asked me to do it yet, I was so happy just to even be considered for the job.

Then in August I met with the Festival chairs, Joanne Bailey-Boorsma and Alex Castro and they officially asked me to create the Festival of the Arts 2011 poster.  Then, the pressure was official too, plus I couldn't tell anybody until the unveiling in February, that's 6 months of keeping my mouth shut!

I said: the print will look a lot better, trust me...

Congratulations! Your work looks great and I am very happy that you were chosen for this honor and task.

You always bring a very positive energy and imagination to your work and that is a rare thing with many artists I see and I enjoy every opportunity that comes to me, to view your work.

Great Poster.
NO skeletons, though.

Congratulations on being asked to do the poster and on doing a great job.
Eye catching and inviting.

It is a great print, I bought the shirt after seeing your work. I am interested in buying the two prints that are connected by a "can telephone". Do you have a studio? How could I contact you about this?
