AIGA’s 2011 Bordo Bello Event

POST BY OLG NEWSWIRE

November 8, 2011

“Bordo Bello” is AIGA Colorado’s annual fundraiser for their mentorship program. A custom skate deck auction! Unbelievably proud to be involved this year, I contributed a deck illustrated with text from the audio clips in Metavari‘s Kings Die Like Other Men:

“Despite distance and season, help yourself to a miracle.”

Below are some photos from the event at the Redline Gallery in Denver, Colorado (courtesy and copyright to Jessica Grenier Photography). Check out all of the event photos on AIGA Colorado’s Flickr set for the event.

I’ll reveal my deck first before you realize it’s easily the worst deck contributed! Only half joking. But seriously, some of these contributions are just dripping wet with pure awesome.
