Collaborative gallery piece: LionElkDeer
This piece was called "Lionelkdeer" and was a collaborative piece done by Paul Peterson, Micheal Cooper, and myself (Mckenzie Sampson). This was created for the gallery show "Nothing On The Wall" at the White Stag in downtown Portland.
Gallery: Bro Love
Bro Love is a 36"x 48" mixed media piece on canvas. I used distorted images of my brother (justin) and myself to express the close relationship between ourselves, family, and our lives. Being close in age we grew up being best friends. We did everything together from traveling, listening to music, snowboarding, eating out, and getting in trouble. Now that we are more grown up, we are moving in different ways of life but our close bond will always be there.
Bro Love: Day 2
The Oldschool skatedeck was a side project/birthday present for my brother. Happy 21st Bday Bro.

Past Work: LifeCycle Wheel Graphics
LifeCycle is a local Eugene Cycle shop that sells a high performance aluminum race wheel called AIRGO. This wheel is manufactured by Reynolds wheels. I worked with the owners Justin and Gilad to create their Logo. They wanted a sleek, aggressive race wheel logo.

Gundam Fight scene
I grew up as a dorky kid who loved playing nintendo and building toy models. I've always been somewhat of a perfectionist and pay attention to even the smallest details. These models were built and painted when I was 11 years old, only to be an inspiration for my design efforts today.
Recent Work: Cannondale Bike Graphic
This Project began September 25th 2011 as a side project of mine. I am an avid Cyclist and Triathlete and I needed a commuter bike. My brother gave me his old cannondale frame ( Cannondale R300) and my plan has been to retrofit this bike with new graphics, details, and parts, turning it into a Designer Portland City Bike. Not many bikes these days can have downtube shifters, 1980's parts, and gears, and still be considered "Cool" here in portland.
Past Work: T-Shirt Graphic
THE SQUATCH:This T-Shirt graphic was created for a Digital arts course taught by Micheal Salter at the University of Oregon. In this course we created a brand name ("NORTHWEST RESISTANCE") and from that brand we designed a number of t-shirts graphics, logos, and vinyl stickers.
