I've never had my work on a billboard ever before so you can imagine how fun this thought was!

The Yes Men, an advertising agency in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, commissioned me to do just that for a woman's college there called Alverno College.

You can check out the artists they have used here: http://www.alverno.edu/about_the_art/index.html

Pemberton Music Festival - GROUP SHOW

2008-09-11T17:35:00.000-07:00

I was fortunate enough to have the privilege of curating a kick-ass art show for the first annual Pemberton Music Festival. It was a really great experience, and I was very pleased with the artists' work for the show. You must check out their work, as they really deserve all the credit they can get!

...and the beauty of it was that every one of them is from BC, Canada...
