Del Valle - Designs for Church Street Productions



These are some jumpies aka jump-offs ; ) that I did for my homeboy Pedro, who runs a promo bizz and is currently working with Coca-Cola, who owns Del Valle. He asked me to throw him some samples to show them what kind of designers he is working with, like me. They aren't sure what kind of market they are trying to focus their promotion, so once that set in stone we will be working more with them. Above are some samples of what I sent him.... big ups P! (if you need any promotion regarding music/art/events/products... let me know, Pedro is your man!)

Mastering The Heights Exhibition - NYC

Anonymous Gallery is proud to combine three generations of prolific artists whose work has been influenced by, or has directly influenced popular culture, design, and the urban environment. The Piece Process will unite relevant artists with their contemporary counterparts through artwork that serves as a reference or an impetus to something larger or more complete. Anonymous Gallery will exhibit unique pieces of art in the form of sketchbook drawings and original works on paper or found objects from over 30 established and emerging artists exhibiting in New York. The exhibition intends to create discourse in regard to artists who have not only influenced one another, but society through their use of iconography, collage, pen, paint, and print.

In conjunction with the exhibition, Anonymous Gallery, will also be hosting weekly workshops for children. Artists Todd James, Leon Reid, Michael De Feo, Maya Hayuk, Ellis Gallagher, among others, will teach the workshops. In the spirit of giving, portions of the proceeds raised will go to benefit Public Art for Public Schools.
