It's been a while since this dude has posted on dribbble! The last two years have seen a move to Austin, TX, a solid job at IBM, and now pursuing The National Poster Retrospecticus full time. The NPR is also producing a poster series called The Fifty-Nine Parks Print Series.
I've been traveling 1-3 months straight at a time with The NPR and art directing and running the parks series full time. While I still get to design and code it's not in the same capacity that I used to. The trade off is getting to work collaboratively with some of my favorite people from around the world. Another challenge is how the heck do you show all of the work you do for an event or an experience? How do you show the work you're doing to lead teams? What about the job that doesn't really let you show client work?
The spirit of both The NPR and Fifty-Nine Parks is to celebrate design, printmaking, and the awesome community we're all a part of. This is something I'm able to do on a much larger scale through both endeavors. That means some things move to the back burner—like being in one place for more than a week at a time or the hefty list of fun personal projects that are queued up. It's a solid trade off though. The last two years have been some of the toughest but also the most incredible!
Over the next few weeks I'll be sharing some progress and favorite shots from the parks series. Please note the illustrator and printer credits as they'll be different for each park. I highly encourage you to check out each artist, each printer, and each park if you haven't already!
