These are a couple of design project I have been working on for KRCC in Colorado. The first is a t-shirt design. This one was seriously fun because they let me do whatever I wanted to, which is how I ended up with a mouse riding a fox. As my dear friend Molly said there are in fact foxes and mice in Colorado Springs. The second project is a poster for the MeadowGrass festival in Black Forest. This isn’t quite finished, but it is pretty close. I love having the opportunity to mix illustration with design. In the future I hope to hand carve and print the posters. That is the ultimate perfect project.

This motto should be easy enough to remember. Not only because it consists of two words but because every time I go outside and move about I feel good. The rhythm of walking in the woods gives my mind rest. One foot in front of the other entranced.

I went for a snowy hike the other day with my brother and his family. They shut down the Blue Ridge Parkway this time of year and it gets so quiet up there. Plus it has been snowing more than usual here so the road was covered and the views were white. Standing at an overlook talking about the Bob Ross esque happy little mountains in front of us I felt content. I would like to stay in these mountains for a good long time.

I love doodling a lot. This is my submission for The Big Team Scribble project. Get on the train and doodle your own. The deadline is Feb. 26. Go go go! The final piece will be a coloring zine featuring one long train. And all profits go to UNICEF.
