If you’re one of the lucky ones that live in SF, make sure you pop on by. Please and thank you!

Finally gave my website, mightyjoecastro.com, an extreme home makeover, complete with lots of new artwork, including the collage-based art print pictured above, which is now for sale over at society6.  The site also includes images from a new series of collage based skate graphics I’ve been working on, a few which are for sale over on the artsprojekt site.  Anyway, please stop by and have a look when you get a moment. And I finally caved in to pressure and am now posting on twitter as well, so feel free to follow if you’re down with that sort of thing.

PUMA - THE GAMES WE PLAY - JARED EBERHARDT

Here’s a rare example of what can happen if a client likes an idea. I was originally hired to piggy back a photo shoot and shoot a video stylebook for Puma Sports. The creative director at Puma, Alex Lowe, asked me to pitch him some ideas for a set design and I sketched up a set of letters spelling PUMA connected with doors and stairs. A month later I was looking at a two story PUMA being fitted with graphics from Justin Kreitemeyer and Steven Harrington of National Forest, along with special help from Andy Holder.

Jarrod Bryan, my friend from across the water designed one of our current boards which I love. A tribute to Jimi Hendrix and one of my favourite songs of his ‘The Wind Cries Mary’. We have an interview with him on the site that you might like to read. He also has a pretty interesting folio of work at www.fullcolorcanvas.com and a blog at fullcolorcanvas.blogspot.com.
