Snocross is so easy to design with. Bright colors on contrasting snow, unlimited angles and pretty cool backgrounds make it easy to convey the excitement of the snocross race into a cool design.

This sample is a ProCard design for Mike Tillson. A coffee mug design for this is posted below.

This sample is a stylization of a photo mixed with graphics & typography. This artwork goes great on a coffee mug or made into t-shirt transfers.

Another sample of stylizing a photo and combining it with graphics.

These are the 2004 versions of the Sedlmeier brothers ProCards. I've been doing their cards since 2001 when they were little ankle biters. Now they are rising stars in the SemiPro ranks in the RMR circuit. The artwork was burned to a CD where they could kick out as many prints as they needed. Sponsors really love 'em!

Jamie Baciuska of Afton, NY is a Master at obtaining sponsors and raising funds for his race team. A golf tournament during the summer is just one way to keep and draw in new sponsors.

Here's a real basic layout. We used a stock ski-doo nameplate I created along with the WSA logo and a "swoosh" element to enhance Chris' photo design.
I think any photographer that shoots as many photos as I do at an event, is bound to have some, let's say, "not so good" photos.

I hated capturing a really cool action shot, but having the focus "not quite there." In David's design, (left) I figured out how I could still use those mediocre shots.

By "ghosting" the images to blend in with the background, a not-so-perfect shot looks great without detracting from the main shot.

More examples of this can be seen in Ryan McIntyre's design below, and the Dousharm Racing design in the Drag Racer Gallery.

David's design was printed on a 24x36 poster and really carries a lot of impact at that size.

This was a really difficult design to work on. Not the process, but the fact that it was for Doug's wake. Doug died doing what he loved and he did it in style by winning the race at the checker.
Finishing it at 3am the night before the wake, it came out great. It was worth it as Doug's family wanted to meet me at the end of calling hours. Godspeed Doug.

Ryan's design is another example where the subtle "ghosting" technique really carries a lot of weight.
Jim Norton's main photo is an example where the background was boring, but I liked the action of him and the sled.

At the right, Jim wanted a design for some wallet size prints that could be used on business card magnets that he could hand out.

A repeat customer, Dave Duchnik wanted a new design to commemorate his 2005 RMR Championship win.

This two shot crash sequence of Logan Neill was too good to pass up this design idea. Though the sled got wadded up a bit, Logan was fine.
The poster reads:
If you ain't Crashing, You ain't racing hard enough!
