Oso and Miggs

My friends Nicole and Stephanie run a hair salon in San Francisco named Oso and Miggs. They asked me to create a lettering composition to be printed on a tote bag that’ll be given to clients as a holiday gift. It was a great opportunity to create a script that mimics the quality of a fine engraving line at a large scale. Attached below is a process gif below for you to check out the steps.

House Guests

My wife, Jordan, and I (aka enormouschampion) were asked by Heath Ceramics to create a graphic for their upcoming show titled “Brooklyn Visits Heath” where they’ll be highlighting craft products for the table and home by Brooklyn-based artisans and designers. They wanted something that had a Brooklyn vibe and after presenting a few ideas we landed on a remix this old post.

Bigfoot’s Woodshop

If you happen to be in San Francisco this Thursday evening (11/08) you should attend the opening of the Bigfoot-inspired art show called, ‘I Don’t Believe in You Either’. This exhibition was developed and curated by Office. They invited myself and other talented folk to contribute a tree round for the show. I recently acquired wood carving tools from my dad which I used to hand carve the word ‘Gigantic’. To me this word encapsulates the larger than life folklore of this mysterious hairy being. Here are a series of process pics below and hope to see you at the show! Btw, proceeds of the sales will be donated to 826 Valencia and 826 Boston.
