Top Rank 2006
A magazine that lists the top businesses in the state broken down by industry. This is the second year I have done the book.

Birmingham Shops magazine 2005
This is cover and three inside spreads for a magazine I designed for PMT publishing. An excellent and well-known local photographer named Caroline Baird Summers did all the photo work and I did all the design. All in all it was a very fun project that was much more a real magazine and much less of a shopper than I expected when I took on the project.

Logo for Fried Green Radio

From BHAMWIKI: Fried Green Radio is a planned independent radio station for the Birmingham area. The organizers are currently working to establish themselves as a non-profit organization and have signed up potential DJ's for programming that will broadcast over the Internet starting on January 1, 2007, until the day comes when space is made available over the broadcast spectrum, more than likely on an AM frequency.

The Bomb Shelter is a downtown Birmingham warehouse space where events like music shows and art openings are held, many times simultaneously.

Early sketches for a project that never came to fruition involving my friends' Koby and Matt's three cats. The lounging cat at the left corner is Chunk and he has since passed away. I wound up liking the preliminary sketches more than the paintings that never got off the ground.
