I just sent off this piece to the publisher… it will be page 1 of the art book "Love Letters" published by Atelier Olschinsky.


I'm looking forward to seeing what the other artists submitted… I'll be posting more about this project as I have more details.

The points that build the type

Abstract Digital painting

It was a heck of a busy day yesterday so I decided to unwind last night doing some more work (fun work).

Here's the result an abstract piece in black and white. It's been a very long time that I wanted to give it a go to something like this…

Curio & Co. - Tarot Cards Looking for the Look

This morning I did a test of how the tarot cards could look at the final stage.  I think we'll go with something along this lines.  I'm quite happy with the new brush it's got enough of a bleed and tooth it feels as if it could've really been on paper.  Now I just need to figure out how to best deal with the paper on which they will be printed on so that they will have that old timey feel once they are in hand.

Curio & Co. designs Volksgarten Pavillon Sign

At the beginning of the year we were asked to design a retro sign for the of the Volksgarten Pavillon (formerly Corti cafe) the building is one of the architecture land marks of Vienna having being designed by Oswald Haerdtl and completed in 1950.  Our task was to design a sign that would complement the architecture and the atmosphere of the cafe. 

Needless to say it was a really fun project.

Curio & Co. New Taro Cards Project - Sneak Peak at San Diego Comic-Con 2015

Here's a little announcement:

Curio & Co.'s next project will be a deck of tarot cards and of course they will carry a Curio flare for the fun absurd.  The cards will have a really old fashion taste, in spirit with the classic Marseille tarot.  I can't wait to start putting some color down on some of these concepts.


While San Diego Comic-Con 2015 attendee will have a chance to have a sneak peak at these illustrations and cards the the official release will be in September along with an already scheduled art show here in Vienna.  More details to come.

In the mean time here are some sketches… just to wet your appetite.
