Portfolio

Backwards Ben - Capitalism reference. Can you find Ben the ape. Ben Hitler. Oh yeah and Ben Dali? Screen print for Senior Thesis.
Guster T
Nafta Poster - This is a collage of five photographs I took in Tijuana. I have spent alot of time in Tijuana and feel quite connected to the locals. This was one in a series of screen prints.
O.A.R. Poster
Send Troops to Darfur - This screen print came out so much better than I thought. A good squirt of yellow and red ink and I got that background when I dragged over the screen. Imagine if our troops were used where they are needed.
Redescribe Emergency - Screen print. All of these posters were inspired by Author, Lincoln Cushing's book "Revolution" a collection of sick Cuban Poster Art. Redescribe Emergency came from a speech I saw Bono (U2) give talking about how we need to refocus and retell these situations so they stick in our minds. Why? So we'll give a damn as a society and do something.
Mr. Chuck Bombs - Messing around.
O.A.R. Poster - Guster Band member, Adam Gardner and founder of Reverb (reverbrock.org) along with Brian Allenby commissioned me to do this poster for the band O.A.R for the Campus Consciousness Tour as part of there tour greening merch.
Caution No Oxygen - In 2004 in art school we decided to talk about Peace and Space instead of war. Good idea.
We dont' want your mecury - This screen print kind of got botched in the making but there are still some beautiful moments. So much of our pollution is locked up in the Inuits ice and water, thus food, thus there mothers milk is so contaminated it is recommended that they do not breast feed there children. Sad.
Tom Curren Poster - Actually met Tom Curren this night when he played this show. It was the last on the tour and he was pretty smoked. He chucked in the surf shop bathroom before putting on one of the most amazing shows I've ever seen at the Big Easy.
Cloud Cult Poster - Guster Band member, Adam Gardner, founder of Reverb (reverbrock.org) and side-kick Elliott May commissioned me to do this poster for Cloud Cult as part of there tour greening.

Danny's Logo - This was sort of based on Cuban hero worship. That's my mug. That grassy stuff has kind of transcended through some of my work over the years guess they are my digi roots sort of speak.

Full Size (highres_width x highres_height)
Identity - This was a program designed to put local surf, snow, and skate shops on the map with magazine advertising. Great idea, but wasn't followed through correctly and now there's a lot of pissed of guys in New Jersey.
Contradiction - Guess I was trying to show what a hypocrispy this whole bread and circus is.
Poster - This poster was in response to the massive tragedy.
