Mars Hill Illustration
Charles Brock recently did an illustration for Rob Bell’s Mars Hill Church. The image is a reference to the Biblical story of Jonah (you know, the guy who got eaten by a whale) and the season of Lent. Charles also did an illustration for them last year, which you can view after the jump. View the full illustration here.
Check it live on the Mars Hill Site (for a limited time only!).
Tim's Cousin Takes Great Photos
Tim Green’s cousin Molly Winn takes some nice shots, sure, but what I really appreciate about her work is the in the moment-ness she captures. All of her shots feel candid and honest. View more pictures after the jump. Also, the above picture is Tim’s son Silas, and his cousin James.

Since moving to Bend, nights after work have involved a lot more beer and, uh, bowling than was previously the norm. The two were combined last night when Faceout Studio was challenged to a Bowling 4 Beer gig down at the local alley by the great group of folks over at TBD Advertising.
The winning group had to buy the non-winning group beer at the Deschutes Brewery Pub. We rallied and won by the narrowest of margins. Our average bowler score was 104.85. The TBD crew netted an average of 104.35. By the time they demanded a recount, we were already at Deschutes Brewery working on our second round of their now famous Jubel 2010.
Want some?
We made blood in the studio yesterday. I can’t tell you why. All I can tell you is that it tasted a lot like Corn Syrup, Cocoa Powder, and red/blue food dye. Mmmmm boy….
Torrey recently returned from the 2010 Olympic Games. You can see some of his pictures on our Flickr stream.
His impressions? “It was colder than Beijing.”
We just got another project back in the mail; the nice folks at Algonquin were nice enough to send us a few copies of each of the books we’d designed for them last season. It was a really nice surprise!
The Girl Who Fell From the Sky was designed and illustrated by the very talented Connie Gabbert. You can see more pictures on our Flickr Stream.

This was a design we concepted for a Jones Soda coffee-table book. If you don’t know, Jones Soda is a smallish-time crafter of unique sodas, with flavors like Fufu Berry, Strawberry Lime, and Blue Bubble Gum. Their labels feature images sent in by people all over the country. Our idea with this book was a way to display the most unique and memorable labels in a comprehensive book.
The lovely packaging was designed by Jeff Miller. You can see more pictures at Faceout Creative.
Jason Gabbert is now selling some of his photography online. Personally, I think these would like great riiiiiiiiiiight above my trophy case. If I had a trophy case, that is…
