André Gide Chalkboard, 4x6 feet

André Gide Chalkboard, 4x6 feet


H E L L O

I’m Dusty, a lettering artist, designer, and the shadow behind Dangerdust. Illustrating using traditional materials including chalk, acrylic, and watercolor is my specialty. I’ve had the pleasure of working with clients like Target, Adobe, Bed Bath & Beyond, and California Pizza Kitchen. 

Back in college, I was half of the duo that “graffitied” 24 Weekly Chalkboard Quotes onto my university's chalkboards. The project went viral, receiving recognition from Print Magazine, Colossal, and Huffington Post. Since then I’ve continued to chalk and letter solo, as well as work with clients, lurk in the shadows, and run the Print Shop. 

For more dusty things, you can find me on Instagram, Facebook, Behance, and Twitter.

Still loving this bird mobile and the shadows it casts. In progress photo at the very end. I painted this so many times to get the gradient just right. I wanted it to feel so subtle in person that you almost can’t tell if it’s painted at
Sneaky bloodroot is always the first to announce its spring. I love seeing where the ants decide to plant them every year. It almost looks like snow from far away. #handcarvedstamp #linocut #printmaking #blockprint #bloodroot
