If you braved the extreme heat while attending this year's Underground Music Showcase you may have snagged one of these guys at the Topo x UMS cool down corner. Client wanted a bandana that felt like a tattoo flash sheet with the collab logos incorporated, and I was happy to oblige!

Big thanks to @topodesigns & @theums for letting me design some merch for such an iconic Denver event.

Printing by the ones you trust @pinebrand ⚡⚡⚡⚡

Getting to see my art as an enamel pin is pretty darn cool. This is a companion accessory to go with my "Welcome Sign" shirt design for @outerrangebrewingco

Be sure to peep the new merch collection while it lasts ↪️

Another fun one for @outerrangebrewingco

The Welcome Sign tee will be making an appearance at their annual Frontier Daze this weekend! Be sure to rock your best Cowpolk attire, and snag this gem when you mosey into town.

And remember to follow the sign for a good time!

Summer is the season of beer drinking here in Colorado, and @coloradobrewersguild is hosting their annual Colorado Brewers Rendezvous tomorrow (7/11) in Salida! @pinebrand will be doing some live hat pressing on-site, and I was asked to come up with a couple of designs for the hat bar.

This custom typography lockup is simple, iconic, and coming to a hat near you! Be sure to snag yours before they're gone 🧢

I don't get to flex my figure drawing muscles much, but I'm really happy with how this Contemplatin' Cowpolk turned out. This is an unused concept for Outer Range's notorious Frontier Daze; an Old West themed party that goes down every summer.

Sometimes you just gotta take a moment and lean against a fence with an ice cold beer.

What do you think he's thinking about 🤔

It really has been a dream come true seeing my artwork come to life on a beer can. Thank you to the folks @hellobrewco for helping me cross this one off the design bucket list. If any other breweries are looking for help with their next can design, my inbox is always open 🍻 taken in Fort Collins, Colorado by @walkingwestdesignco

HELLO & PINE 🎨

Technically, this isn’t our first collab. Every Hello shirt you wear and tote you stuff comes from @pinebrand’s shop, meaning it’s made with deep attention and care, just like our beer. We like to think we’re cut from the same cloth, colored from the same paint, embroidered by the same thread. Putting our heads and names together on a true collaboration was long overdue.

So, we made some goods for you to enjoy. A Hello x Pine long sleeve, an embroidered hat, and, of course, a delicious Hazy IPA: Good Impressions. All three designed by Pine’s incredible Whitney Bontrager (@walkingwestdesignco).

We’re also throwing a little party to celebrate. Swing by the taproom tomorrow from 5:30-7:30 to snag goods and enjoy a beer. Pine will be pressing hats on-site!

We couldn’t brew a beer with Pantone 802, so this is the next best thing. See you tomorrow ✌️

She's back! That's right, my whiskey on the rocks gal is coming to a shirt near you, and she's bringing her handsome, Aperol Spritz pal. This libation lady and her hunky himbo are available @bartsliquor

Be sure to grab yours before they're gone!

Doozy of a week, but I suppose it's not as bad as having a lightning bolt in your noggin'. This was a concept for some band merch that I dubbed the Electric Kitty 😼⚡

I've got some exciting projects coming down the pipeline that I can't share just yet. Stay tuned!

Came up with this Killer Kroc for a design contest at work. Will I ever get sick of drawing creepy animals? Probs not.

No swimming 🐊
