Fashionably late is still kind of in, right? Because I completed this project back in April of 2015 (whoops) and I’m just now sitting down to gush about it.

When my friends at Blue Star Contemporary Art Museum again called on me to help design their event collateral and identity I jumped at the chance to help honor a long-standing community influencer and local San Antonio artist, Cruz Ortiz.

If you’re not familiar with Cruz or his work, do yourself a favor and at least briefly handle that oversight. He has an immediately recognizable style packed with personality and an aesthetic that typically weaves in a seamless wink or two.

Enjoy a few pictures from the fabulous event below (and a few more here) and take a quick look at the event invitation materials I so enjoyed putting together.

Adios amigos – ’til next time!
