This mural in my living room is done entirely from Sharpie pens. With the exception of the central portrait, everything is from a stream of consciousness. I love how the living room is an open hub of ideas, tasteless jokes, inappropriate stories, music, friends, food and drinks; the mural is my unfiltered response to those surroundings.

Makr is a tech and creativity brand based in Brooklyn. This is the welcome and landing page explaining their services. We were after a fun, crafty vibe while keeping it clean and on brand.

BKLYN Commons is a Coworking Space just opposite Prospect Park, Brooklyn, NY. The space is historically loaded with remnants of an old white bread factory and a classic clock tower. All shapes and themes in this lobby mural respond to that rich history and add to its fresh and vibrant future.

Shinola is an American luxury lifestyle brand which specializes in watches, bicycles, and leather goods. They hosted a street party in Washington DC that celebrated American manufacturing, I illustrated two 8x8" interactive chalkboards and stall signage for the event.

This is 'Filtered' Coffee in Washington Heights, NY. The mural aimed to capture the community by including local wildlife, people, music, food and, of course, coffee.

Input Lofts is a collaborative space for creative people. As a result, the brief here was 'Collaboration'. The viewer walks through a surreal NY streetscape and is let past Dakota's Coffee where Dali, Picasso and Kahlo are asked for the WiFi password.

This is a two level mural that wraps up a residential staircase in Bushwick, Brooklyn. The narrative guides the resident up from a Subway platform lined with musicians to the East River skyline. There, the lights of the Brooklyn Bridge lead the viewer up to the polka dot pattern of the dream girl's dress.

Eavesdropper is a daily Instagram series that takes snippets from overheard conversations around New York and spins them into unique, handmade typography pieces. The project began as a 365 day lettering exercise, but the work was so rewarding (and the response so surprising) that I couldn't help but continue. Since then, Barnes & Noble published a coffee table book titled 'Eavesdropper: Overheard on the Streets' and I have opened a merchandise store that features the artwork on pillows, t-shirts, mugs and more. 

Eavesdropper has gone on to earn praise from leading art, pop culture and innovation destinations such as BuzzFeed, DesignTaxi, Fast Company, Urban Daddy, Milk Studios and The Art Director's Club.

The Celibacy Challenge is an award winning pro bono campaign that raises awareness of the FDA's policy which requires gay and bisexual men to abstain from sex for 365 days preceding any blood donation. As Art Director, I co-wrote the script and worked as part of Saatchi & Saatchi's design team to create the visual identity. The tongue-in-cheek approach included Alan Cumming as our spokesperson, special edition underwear and shareable memes for those who signed the petition.
