My favorite piece from the collection of Spark Master Tape promotional items. It accurately captures much of the essence the mysterious Spark Master Tape features, and even gives a nod to fans of his albums that choose to ‘mask up’ similar to how Oakland Raiders fans will head down to the  Coliseum on game-day and get rowdy.

Here are two 8bit inspired pieces as part of the collection of Spark Master Tape promotional items from earlier in 2016. The albums Syrup Splash (left) and The SWOUP Serengeti (right) forever immortalized in a video game style.

In coming up with some promotional items for rapper Spark Master Tape earlier in 2016, I wanted to create something that would appeal to those fans that drank a little too much of the ‘swoup’ and were eagerly awaiting his third album’s release. In doing so, I thought conceptual art for two vinyl releases of his first two albums Syrup Splash and The SWOUP Serengeti would be a nice and well-received touch. 

Another piece of my contribution to promotional items for rapper Spark Master Tape’s third album ‘Silhouette Of A Sunkken City’. My first actual attempt at colorizing something from black and white. I’m sure someone could easily debate the accuracy of the color scheme I chose, but this is more of a test than anything else.

Inspired by the famous 100 emoji and part of the package of Spark Master Tape promotional items I created, the mysterious “Ahunnet” requested a series of custom logo for use on various social media.

Growing up in the heart of Red Sox Nation (among a family of Sox fans) as a Yankees fan hasn't always been easy. This design came about after a bar-room discussion after I stated it to a group of Sox Nation’s finest fans. Probably the most civilized way I could think to get a shot in for one of baseball's biggest “rivalries.” 

I had seen Lucio Fulci’s 1979 film Zombie done in a similar style, which inspired me to take my all-time favorite film, John Carpenter’s 1978 groundbreaking horror film Halloween, and give it the look of an old 8bit video game main menu screen. I can’t fully imagine what a Dr. Loomis Mini-Game would look like but I’ll be he shoots him six times. I fully intend to go back sometime in the future and do this as a true 8bit GIF.

After finally combining two fantasy baseball leagues into one back in 2012 to create MoneyBall, the time came where we wanted to design a logo for the league’s homepage, and also for some merchandise for us to proudly proclaim our baseball allegiance to one entity. I’m especially proud of this piece, because the subtle touches are really a treat, including the twelve stars to represent each participant in the league.

While the Costacos Brothers have been largely dormant over the last 20 years, the Yankees call-up of top prospect Aaron Judge inspired me to create a poster in their style.

My youngest brother had his sixteenth birthday back in February, and rather than pull something down off the Hallmark shelf, I decided to take it a step further and immortalize him on his own special edition vintage 1974 Topps baseball card, even going so far to include the stats from his last two years of Little League.

Upon rebranding my fantasy football identity in one of my longer-tenured leagues, I decided to give my team a Jacksonville Jaguars themed buddy cop movie storyline, going so far as to creating a couple teaser movie posters for the Teal Justice film adaptions.

In 2015, I was contracted by the creators of the Northwoods Sporting Journal to create a concept magazine geared toward those looking to more to be more self-sufficient and those living “off-the-grid”. The result: North Country Homesteader.

To celebrate Halloween 2015, the Smoke & Barrel Tavern in Fayetteville AR featured local bands doing cover shows. Teenagers, a three-piece band, from Fayetteville commissioned a poster for the show which was a clever play on The Cars’ 1978 self-titled debut album.

This logo and color scheme was inspired by my local University of Maine Black Bears ice hockey team, and was brought to life in 2015 to give a fresh face to a fantasy hockey team in the HKY Liiga.

Moose’s team may have since been replaced, but his legacy will live on forever thanks to The Lord Donahue Cup.
