Seven Trains

Personal and commissioned paintings. The "Go Green" illustration was a project that was commissioned by the online brokerage firm iShares. I was one of seven artists tapped to interpret the phrase “Keep Evolving”, with the final art blown up to mural size and installed in a Grand Central Station corridor. See photo below.

OK Soda

Package design for the now notorious OK Soda, a shot-lived product created by Coca-Cola in the nineties. The advertising campaign overshadowed the product itself which did not taste good. I was one of four artists hired to create can designs, the others were Daniel Clowes , Charles Burns and David Cowles.

Wonderground Gallery

These three paintings were shown at the Wonderground Gallery at Disneyland.

Cards and archival prints were also created from the art and sold at Disneyland and Disney World.
