Power of the Pen, Illustration for Yuti magazine
Joseph Beuys Book - This is my redesign of a book about the artist Joseph Beuys from 1979. I used Beuy's square cross motif in the book and it's felt wrapping - another Beuys motif.
Vinyl Cleaning Illustration - This is an illustration I created for the record conoisseur magazine Waxpoetics, to accompany an article on how to clean one's records.

...of Lilies and Remains - An intricate collage. I made this mix for halloween, and I had a lot of fun putting together tracks like the theme from "Night of the Living Dead", excerpts from radio mystery plays, and of course ghostly sound effects.
Sampling - I designed this illustration for Waxpoetics, a journal devoted to record collecting culture. I created the illustration from dozens of images.
Animé Poster - We needed a poster to display at an anime convention, so I created this poster - and researched how to write "Second Life" in Japanese characters.
