Film studio? check
Print shop? check
Too much awesome to let sleep get in the way? check. most definitely check.
I know, I know. Two shops? What? Nothing. Today is the official launch (internetly speaking) of Unknown Arts, Burlington’s only artist owned and operated print shop. Here’s our official Unknown Writeup
Unknown Arts was created by a group of friends in the fall of 2009. Their dream was to have a job that allowed them freedom of artistic expression and the opportunity to creatively interact with the world around them. You know, something more than just a way to pay the bills…
We are the only shop in town where you get the opportunity to work directly with the artists and printers who will be creating your custom work.
We’re also the only local printing business where you’ll find the owners designing and printing their own personal projects. At Unknown Arts we’re not trying to fool anyone and we’re not out to get rich. Our goal is to create a productive work environment that is both inspiring and entertaining. And we’d like to share it with everyone we can!
We’re laid back, easy to work with, and passionate about what we do.
Now if that dont make ya grin I don’t know what will.
If any of this interests you and you want to be an official Unknown Artist, have some custom work printed, or just wanna hang out, email us at info@unknownartstudio.com

I know. my website is hurt. It’s disjointed, boring, and the only purpose it serves is to give my resume a home. Well, me and your mother(hiyoo!) talked about it, and decided its time for something new. We’re gonna give you the keys to the car. Now wait, your curfew is still the same so don’t get too excited. And it’s going to be atleast a couple weeks before it gets those side flames put on, but you can wait that long right? NO CHOICE

someday soon…blog, motion, non motion, sketches, ideas, awesome. all in one place
I had the honor of creating Save the Date mailers for a buddy’s wedding recently. I dont know his other half too well so I gave them a few options. He sounds pretty lucky because she chose the coolest one. 
We did however change that chicken to a goat. go figure. i still like the chicken

Oh the joys of being self-employed, how little I knew of ye. Ye? yee? I dont care. Since going freelance, I think I actually work more hours then I did when I was working for someone else. Granted, those hours are sometimes sprinkled throughout the day and night, but they are there. Oh yes, they are there. I have so many cool things to post! but most are not completed yet so maybe rushing to the internet isn’t the best plan of action.
This right here is a piece of a piece i did for some homepieces. I know that last part doesn’t work. shut up. click to biggen

fortunately/unfortunately, we ended up going in a different direction. I was sad to see him go so I will most likely use him in something down the line. I’ve played with a few names for him, comment with some options and you just may win the prize..of..naming?
