Changethethought™

I am currently seeking artistic representation. I would like to gain representation to help me better access freelance projects for both my design and illustration work. With that said I am also actively seeking freelance work at this time. I want to emphasize that the work on this website was all created by me (Christopher Cox) individually and no one else. I have no real discernable style but consider myself a bit of a renaissance man in that regard. I feel comfortable working in whatever style best suits the unique considerations of the project. If you would like to see something more in a specific style I would be happy to send samples, if available, that are not currently on the site. I am fully capable in creating motion boards, digital illustration, typography, branding, logo development, design for apparel (t-shirt art), posters, comps for websites and providing concepts for television commercials. I am willing and happy to work for or with clients both in the United States and overseas.

In the near future I will be printing several posters and I am also looking for good printers for that project as well. I will be printing both digitally on heavy stock paper and screen printing. So for those of you that have been requesting posters, there will be several available before the summer is out.

If you would like to contact me regarding representation, a creative project, or are interested in advertising on the site please contact me via the contact section. Now onto the print work.

These posters will most likely be silkscreened. The chocolate poster will be screened on a natural tone stock while the lime colored poster will be screened on heavy white stock. They will most likely be available late summer 2008. The posters were created as a simple iconographic, timeless, typographical statement of the ‘Changethethought’ message.

I believe in art and I believe in the act of creation. I think creativity is counter to destruction.

A little 80’s skate, new wave, Art Chantry inspired number created to remind people that it’s o.k. to criticize, so long as you make sure you get out there and create something too.

I read in a book about Metaphysics that our culture of ’survival of the fittest’ is strangling the progress of the United States both internally and diplomatically in our relationships with other countries. We seem to want to refuse the glaring fact that if we do not unite in a common goal to make the world better together we will fail as a group of selfish disparate individuals. The poster ‘We Not Me’ is a small psychological creative jab at this paradigm.

‘God is a verb’ was a contextual quote pulled from the late great Buckminster Fuller. It subtly implies that God is energy, never static, always creating and moving. It also implies that in order to be like God, you should get off your ass, get out there and try to make a difference by taking action.

This is a little personal homage to my love of the marriage of graphic design and the printing process. An ode to CMYK and all it has done for me. The poster is entirely vector and based from an original sketch. Poster set for sale late summer 2008.
