It's the end of one year and the beginning of another. I'm staked out in Nola for New Years and I could not be happier. We're gonna try our damnedest to get back her next year and even make it our permanent residence.

I've never wanted to make love to a city before, but I spent most of last night humping New Orleans' street lamps as way to prove to my husband how much I feel alive and full of love for it's dirty, broken up little streets.

As for design--gigposters, music, branding excursions, adventures in Nola and a heck of a lot of photography are coming my way in 08.

Look for changes in the next 12 months--I learned a few things in 07 and I'm hopeful for the future.

I guess I'll leave with the self-indulgence of my top five songs from 2007. I ain't a music expert-- so I'm not basing this on anything but the songs I loved this year.

Also, wish me luck on staying awake past 11pm tonight-my hubby bets I don't last.
Good luck to everyone and take care (xoxoxoxox).


1. Marry Me (St. Vincent)
2. How Deep is Your Love (The Bird and the Bee--cover of the Bee Gees'song)
3. The News From Your Bed (Bishop Allen)
4. For Agent 13 (The Besnard Lakes)
5. Sad Sad City (Ghostland Observatory)

I'll be giving this puppy a facelift shortly-it kinda reminds me of a book cover from 1952--maybe to kill a cock fighting mockingbird?

I was in a hurry and put this poster together with the idea that all I had to do was come up with a "tail" pun. Well, everyone keeps asking me what does it mean?

My answer: I don't know.

I just have a very naughty and wild imagination. Sometimes it makes sense, sometimes not. I just wanted to include a cool graphic and a fox tail--you can draw your own conclusions. If it makes you laugh or remember it, then I'm happy. I'll even be the first to say it, it looks like the tail is shooting out of her ass. I think I need to study some four-legged anatomy to get it right.

Oh, well....Ciao, baby.

I've been a little stressed out, can you tell?

I still love to design posters, but my workload has just doubled for the next two months.

Pray for me, better yet just send me on a long vacation to Hawaii or to a drunken excursion to NOLA.

The "boob" is back.

Bottoms Up Burlesque is a local charity burlesque troop in Indianapolis. They work hard at raising money for y-me.org . You should check out their other events, like Dr. Sketchy

As for me I'm going back to work to create some more posters--eventually I'll get my style down pat. It's a weird, fun and disheartening process. Sometimes everything flows, and sometimes I feel like I'm mixing something artificial with what should look natural. I'll figure it out.

See ya later alligator.

This one is sans the "boob." Still my thoughts are that this might be perceived as sexist, (hint notice the female matadors and the charming bachelor with the bull spear). I may do another that plays up the reversal of this and post later.

There is still room for assemblage, my pal Kim is still confirming the line up--so look for matadorv2--electric boogaloo.

Ciao, baby.

Soooo, I like to make gig posters. My latest creation:




I do like Secretly Canadian and I love cream cheese. I've been working on some new ideas for designs recently. It seems when I use boobs I get the best reaction from people, so I'm gonna finish out 07' as the year of promoting bands with boobs. I may slip in a few designs like the one above that is a little more PG-rated.

Peace-out.
