Under Pressure Graffiti Festival 2010!!!!!!!

Under Pressure, aka the best damn thing that happens in Montreal in the summer, is gearing up for its 15th year this coming weekend. August 14th and 15th, come down and join the party at Peace Park and Foufounes Electrique (the former being just above Renée Levesque on St. Laurent, the latter...well, you know Foufes, don't you?). Why am I so excited? Because above and beyond being a long-term fan of the event, I was lucky enough to get to design their shirts this year! We went with a playing card theme and the phrase Down With the Kings as our mantra. Below are the results. For more info on the event, visit www.underpressure.ca Posters of these images will be available at the event and online at www.hellokirsten.etsy.com.

2 new shirts & Ampersands

I printed up an absolute ton of Ampersand posters this week, just for fun. About 40 big ones and 540 small ones! You can see them below.

But first! I threw one of the &s onto a shirt, and made another shirt based on the # sign. It's play-with-type time over here. The shirts are up at Threadless and if you voted for them I would very much appreciate it. Thanks :)

Aaaaaaaand, a whole bunch of ampersands below! &&&&&&. Right now they're on 12" x 18" posters, which are big and look amazing, and small 4" x 6" cards, which are fun.
