unknownisformula

It's been an interesting month in the p4d lab. Two major computer failures in one week. One fried PC and a failed macboook screen.
Here's the first of a few projects I'm going to have to rebuild thanks to losing my PC.

If you've ever visited my main portfolio website, www.p4design.org then you've probably heard the site's soundtrack which was mostly composed by the UK producer Formula. (prev. 'unknown')

The following are some logo concepts I put down for my man in London.
the unknown logos are pre-crash, and the formula ones post-crash.

I started an internship this week. I'll be working with strutta.com for the next month collaborating on a few projects. this is my first internship, and I should have some interesting new projects to share in the next few weeks.

Vancouver_VirginRadio_p4

A couple weeks back I did a promo event for Virgin Radio's launch/VIP party.
Pretty standard event for me, I painted outside for a few hours letting guests view the process of me painting this Virgin logo. I was given free reign beyond the logo element, so this was pretty fun to paint.
The contract came together very last minute, but it worked out alright in the end.

There is a promo video shot that night where you can see full scope of the party beyond my role :here:

Housepaint phase2-shelter

Right now the Housepaint art exhibit (click HERE for previous post) I was invovled with this past summer has been installed in the ROM (Royal Ontario Museum)



If street art is found within the walls of a museum, can we still find something in this vibrant international art movement that can be respected as critical and exceptional art? This exhibition, driven by the street artists themselves, is a distillation of the spontaneity, spirit of collaboration, accessibility and social consciousness from which street art has emerged. Housepaint at the Institute for Contemporary Culture (ICC) at the ROM is the first exhibition of street art in a major Canadian museum, an open-ended exhibition and experiment. Through the run of the exhibition, every month-and-a-half another street artist will be invited to respond and add to the canvas houses from Tent City and the previous art work in the sequence -- layering the exhibition with meaning and building organic connections between the works.

At the end of the exhbition the canvas houses will be auctioned for Habitat for Humanity Toronto. Please register at http://www.housepaint.ca for programming updates.

I happen to have two panels in this installation(unofficially), so I am very excited and proud to have my work showing in one of the largest galleries in Canada alongside these amazing artists. There has been additional work created since the original installation took place at The LuminaTO event this summer, so even if you saw that, you should definitely come see this second viewing of the work. If looks amazing!

P4D_Dojang-Signage

This week I produced the following signage for Dojang Martial Arts studio located at 4465 dunbar St. (Map)

Here is my initial concept image:



And Here is the final sign painted by hand.









I really enjoyed painting this sign, I've always had a thing for the old signage and billboards of the past. I cant help but stare when I see a 50 year old coca cola billboard fading into old bricks, and I'll be very happy if one day when I'm old and weathered(more so) that I can happen upon one of my forgotten wall murals that has stood the test of time and faded only from exposure to the elements since its creation.

I've got a lot of painting left in me, hopefully my work can keep up ;)

Next post should be some process work from an exciting new project I'll be starting next week. A 7 foot by 11 foot canvas, privately commissioned by a design studio located in Toronto. I posted some concepts for it in the last weeks, but since then the design totally changed and we finally arrived at something everyone was excited about. The words "powerfull" and "Holy Shit!" were used in response to my submissions, so obviously this is going to be a fun one to work on.

Stay warm folks!
P4d.
