ArtVelo Bike at Tour

In July I decaled David Clinger's team bike. Dave is a professional racer who fell out of grace when he tattooed his face with a Maori Moko, among other things.... He is now getting back into professional racing and I had the opportunity to design a special Maori inspired tat for his bike. Look for it at Tour of Utah on Aug. 18-23

A Little About ArtVelo

My brother-in-law lives with us and he owns a sticker company (mycurlycue.com) so of course the house is plastered with stickers. The walls, fridge, toilet, anything you can think of we've tried. We are all avid cyclist and had already done up my spouses BMX bike to look like a taxi. I thought it would be brilliant to buy a mostly blank frame and do my own design . So I did, which you can see to the right. From there I feel in love with the idea of making everyone's bikes beautiful.

Here's What Keeps it Fun

Fairly regularly I find things that I just love, rather it's a funny video, an amazing design, or some really good reads. All of these things are what make us good at our work. Design is about keeping a fresh perspective. So enjoy these things that keep my creative juices flowing.
