Peace, Love & DMB
If there is one thing Kelsey loves more than anything, it is Dave Matthews Band.
She says, Their music brings my soul to life!

After working through an Abduzeedo tutorial, I spent the next few weeks seeing what else I could do with the bokeh effect. I created a wallpaper for Ag Printers' intern computers, numerous wallpapers for my own desktops and these posters for Kelsey.

The first is still my favorite. I used a lot of earth tones with other hues found throughout the Dave Matthews Band website at the time. I created a custom brush based off of the firedancer art Dave created ages ago to make each letter jump off the page.

And, of course, because I have incorporated Dave Matthews Band own original art into the posters, these were not done for profit. Just love.

At the time, she had just moved into a new apartment and decided that she was going to use spring colors to decorate with, so the original idea went through some variations before she was completely happy with them.

Eventually, her decorating colors changed and the cost to print them was staggeringly higher than anticipated, so the set has still not gone to print. But, here are the final posters designed. Maybe we will have them printed some day when we have some empty wall space and few extra hundred dollars laying around...or at least the poster that I like best.
