Going Vertical with a “Square” Sean Adams Style!
September 28th, 2011 / No Comments »
We were just trolling over at Burning Settlers Cabin, the blog produced by the talented Sean Adams and Noreen Morioka of AdamsMorioka, and stumbled on a write up Sean did about the deck he contributed this year for our event. In true Noreen fashion she asked Sean, “You? You? Why would they ask you? You’re so square.” We love the sarcastic, playful banter between those two, so we thought we’d share his deck he contributed too! We love the typography Mr. Adams! And tell Noreen we’d love to have her do a deck next year too… if she behaves! Ha ha.

Having already supplied us with a superfun board for the auction, Sam Spina has also made us a self-portrait Munny. Enjoy the process pics and also a fun little video!
Anti-Establishment Farm!
September 22nd, 2011 / No Comments »
Using wood-burning, and a little white ink (and text designed by Mikita Westfield), local artist Daniel Crosier has created this board for this year’s Bordo Bello. He has used this same wood-burning technique to illustrate the comic Bartholomew of the Scissors. In addition to illustration, Daniel also works in original performance, music, film and visual art and design.

Urban Inks is the creative art, design and screen printing studio of artist couple Reed Burgoyne and Sarah Mead. They design and hand screen print everything from gig posters and ‘zines to business cards and invitations—all with a bold, DIY aesthetic (and a color palette to rival Rainbow Brite).
We’ve Got Jungle Fever, and it’s Meg Hunt’s Fault!
September 22nd, 2011 / No Comments »
“In the jungle, the mighty jungle… Oh-wee-ma-whop-oh-wee-ma-whop…”
C’mon, sing it with us– you know you want to! When we asked super talented Portland based illustrator Meg Hunt to participate and do a deck for us we figured she’d turn out something in the realm of awesome, but didn’t think we’d be considering a jungle inspired trek to the summit of Kilimanjaro as a result! We loved her board (titled A Jungle Snack) so much we thought what the heck? Let’s ask her if she’d do a Kidrobot Munny for us and boy did she deliver! Her customized Munny is the perfect pairing with her board (We’ve decided here at Bordo Bello Headquarters to self-name her Munny Tarzan, ha ha). Way to knock it out of the ballpark Meg!
