| Introduction | I like long walks on the beach and curling up on the couch on rainy days to watch movies. I'm a Virgo. That means I was born in September. Seriously though... I'm Brian. I'm a graphic designer here in KC and I recently started my own company, Trick Pony Studio. I do a little bit of everything when it comes to design (branding & identity, advertising, guerrilla marketing, illustration, packaging, publication design, web design, environmental graphics, direct mail, apparel design, stationary design, custom cards & invitations, & anything else print related. On top of that, my collaborative partner (Colin Walsh of Colin Walsh Design) and I are developing our own line of products. We've started with our t-shirts, but I have some furniture pieces that I'll be starting on soon. I've also been concentrating on my own art doing a lot more lately. I use a lot of office products in my work...I started doing things at work when I was bored. Not having true art supplies, I started making due with what was available. It's also stuff you can gank from work easily. Anyway... |
