Stormy Growlers..

The Site.

 The trimmings

The long 3 layer journey 

The details

La fin

So over the last few weeks a project has been in the works and it was a slow arduous process that finished with great result. Unique to my normal clean designs, this one was raw, made of wood, steel and lots of labour, and not only mine. It was with metal work and laser work from Storm sources. With having my day job, and not able to take on the full install, it left for the Culture Crawl deadline of November the 15, 2013, which meant Storm Brewery to take on the complicated task of installing the sign themselves, in the stormy weather the wet coast is known for. Perfect for branding and it's namesake yes:)

So, with interests, pull up and grab a growler, you won't be sorry:)

Good things come in 3's

It's kinda fun when you can finish off a great ride with a beer, wearing shirt, and lean up against a beam in one of your favourite Pubs, and say you designed for all three:) First time I can actually say this since designing:) NSMBA fortified trails, Raven Skate Shop T-shirt and Storm Brewery flavour all in one place at the Raven Pub in Deep Cove.

Stormy Weather maybe, but a good Dark Pint of Fun!

Over ago redo the Storm Brewery Van and due to many reasons, we never got around to getting it done. Well a new van was purchased and a new, simpler and cleaner marketing plan on the go, vinyl instead of painting was decided on. Peg Design has yet to do a full vinyl wrap and to be honest, is not very fond of the full wraps due to the fact of more waste and less impact of actual data being seen as the vehicle drives by. Thankfully Storm was on the same boat and the most basic representation was chosen. With the help of Sandbox Signs cutting and applying the vinyl at their shop in Burnaby, BC, the Storm Brewery van now is on the go, bringing cheers and beers to all who can handle the stoutest of stouts, and more.

The size that counts.

Simple and to the point.

Winnipeg first, tomorrow, the World!

Born and raised in Winnipeg Manitoba, Clodhoppers first made it's marketable debut in the basement of Chris with a group of friends who were able to munch out on his Grannies Family recipe. Through fandom and suggestive business practise, Kraves Candy was created and introduced Clodhoppers to the Winnipeg and local markets in 1998 with Local Manitoba Wal-Marts before hitting the Big time in 1999 with Safeway and BC's Overwaitea Foods.

This was the First sign to expose them to their new market:) It was produced while I was employed with Contempra Signs in Winnipeg, Manitoba.

At the time, Clodhoppers was only available with the original recipe of Vanilla but Chris dropped of a rather large box of Milk Chocolate with Jammi and I to taste test and give our opinions. Will gladly accepted and proceeded to munch away throughout the day, casually wiping the messy sticky fingers on our pants before tapping away at the keyboards or vinyl cutters. about four hour or so later (say 4pm) Chris stopped by to pick up some of his signs to find us rather full as we pushed a half empty box over the counter to him to look in with a laughing smile. "So you like them then, do you think they will sell?"

As they moved up in the World of candy retail, they introduced that same Milk Chocolate, and followed up with Dark Chocolate, Chocolate Fudge, Cookies and Clods (which actually is a trademarked) and Peanut Butter, which is now discontinued.

I am so very proud of how successful Clodhoppers became and that I was able to be there in the beginning of such a tasty product. Interestingly enough, Clodhoppers followed me to British Columbia and moved to Abbotsford and re-branded it's entire product line with a new title of "Chris and Larry's Clodhoppers, and eventually selling it's full assets to Brookside Foods.

Hot Night in the City 2008

Client: Ron Popov

Product: Poster art, T-shirt and plaques

Name: Hot Night in the City

Year: 2008

While living in Kamloops and working for Visual Signs and Awards I was able to design all the visuals for marketing  and award items. Not much for a budget as the organizer basically operates this as a special interest non profit event, but it was rather fun to see all the classic cars in such amazing shape. there were many concepts made and all pretty different as for styles, but in the end, the classic rock style won the round.
