When I talked with her on the phone Sunday, I don't think I had ever heard her so sad and dejected before. She said many people were coming back from hiding in the bush looking for food in Pibor and not finding anything. The little money that she had she gave out to some relatives but she knew it wasn't enough to do much of anything.

Due to my “graphic” skills I was conscripted (happily) into the task of designing some Hygene promotion t-shirts to be distributed to the communities.

A few years ago I worked with some friends and put together a poetry/prose magazine for Southern Sudan. This was one of the most interesting projects I have done in a long time ...

When I was working in Sudan I did a few logos. I won’t say they were great logos, but I they were interesting. The hardest thing about them was trying to incorporate everything the client asked for.

In an attempt to cash in on the upcoming hysteria of Southern Sudan becoming a new country I made this design for a T-shirt. You can purchase this image on a T-shirt, hat or even a totebag at CafePress. Need to figure out how to target all the diaspora [...]

I need to work on a better one than this, but figured I would post anyhow. Ever since I saw the referendum ballots I kept thinking of “talk to the hand”. Oh no they didn’t. Well, yes they did.

Henry Rollins in Southern Sudan

Normally, I don’t really care much about what celebrity is visiting Southern Sudan. They jet in on a plane, spend a few days “talking” to the people and then go back to their comfort zones an expert on what is happening in Southern Sudan.

When I checked my twitter feed this morning I [...]

My friend Victor Lugala is putting together a collection of his writings into a small booklet. I was helping him with some design and layout and this was a concept I gave him for the cover. In the end he didn’t go for it. Thought I would just post it here for the [...]
