    poster // Beervana

    We were recently tasked by the Sonoma Community Center to develop a graphic and poster to promote their first annual Beervana amateur beer brewing competition.  They asked us to create something to expressed the idea of “Nirvana for beer-lovers”—something a bit humorous.

    We instantly thought of an effervescent, jolly buddha rising from the frothy bubbles of a divine brew.  And a mock beer label was created.

    To attain Beervana, one must eliminate all desire and suffering through the tasting and appreciating of hand-crafted beer—and this is best accomplished by attending this sure-to-be-a-blast event.  Click here for details.

    posters // Trashion Show

    The Sonoma Community Center is curating a “Trashion” Fashion Show & Exhibit centered around fashions created by Bay Area artists from recycled and found materials.  We were inspired by the subject matter to make our own imagery for the posters from a collage of found items and imagery.

  • 2010 Sonoma Valley Muse

    2010 Sonoma Valley Muse

    Each year, the Sonoma Community Center selects a prominent character from Sonoma’s history to celebrate as the years’ Sonoma Valley Muse.  Past years have been in honor of Jack London, “Big Alma” Spreckels and Robert Lynch.  A special event is the focus of the celebration, which raises much needed funds for the treasure of an arts and cultural center that is the Sonoma Community Center.

    This year, the honoree is Hanzell Vineyards founder James D. Zellerbach—who also served as U.S. Ambassador to Italy.  The Italy connection inspired the theme of this year’s celebration: Roman Holiday!

    We were once again happy to help create promotional materials and invitations to spread the word about the wonderful event.  You can learn more about this year’s event—and buy tickets—here!

  • The Val Papadins’ album art

    The Val Papadins’ album art

    To create this album artwork, we started off with an original painting of a piano on fire and added Sarah’s original photography.

    We then laid out the album art to develop a cohesive visual representation of the band’s unique music and personality.
