Who's that lady always at her laptop!? 😅

This was a fun UTEP community-based project with Brad Jacobson. I am very proud of Miranda and Annabelle, the student designers from my Spring 2026 GD2 Intro class that did such a great job.

When Dr. Brad Jacobson, an assistant professor in the English department at the University of Texas at El Paso (UTEP), set out to re-establish a West Texas site for the National Writing Project, he knew he needed professional branding materials to bring his vision to life.

Get down to Chalk the Block this weekend in downtown El Paso, bring a T-shirt or tote bag to the EP Museum of History from 10 am to 2 pm and get a FREE 2-color hand-pulled screen print of my rotulista-inspired design! Bandanas and totes to print on will also be available for purchase. —No AI slop here— All of this is in conjunction with my exhibit colab, 'El Otro Muralismo: Historical and Contemporary Sign Painting in El Paso & Ciudad Juárez', continuing to be on display in the Museum's 2nd floor gallery space.

Congrats to Miranda Hernandez and Annabelle Aguirre of my Spring 2026 ARTG 2326 Graphic Design 2 class whose designs were selected as those used for The West Texas Writing Project! What a great collaboration between the DoArt and the UTEP Dept. of English that really showcases the professional-level talent and ability of DoArt graphic design students to take what they learned in this introductory-level course and see a project all the way through to fruition—from sketches, to planning, to real-world production, to ultimately client satisfaction and great design being out in the world!

Bienal Internacional del Cartel en México

So honored to be recognized by the 19th Bienal Internacional del Cartel en México (19th Biennial of the Poster in Mexico) for my design 'Proteggere La Transumanza' ('Protect the Transhumance', in Italian).

Transhumance is the seasonal movement of livestock between fixed high and low altitude pastures. It relies on traditional migration routes, helps preserve local biodiversity, and is recognized globally as an important cultural heritage practice. In summer, herders guide animals up to cool mountain areas to find fresh green grass when lowland fields turn dry and hot. In winter, flocks return down to sheltered valley farms before snow covers the high peaks. Along the way, grazing animals naturally manage forest edges, clear brush, and keep mountain meadows healthy. Local villages host big festivals with music and food when the herds start and finish their long journeys.

Thus, beyond its positive environmental impact, transhumance also contributes to social inclusion, strengthening cultural identity and ties among families, communities and territories while counteracting the effects of rural depopulation.

Pressures from climate change, urban growth, modern farming, and blocked migration paths threaten this cultural tradition.

In Italy, transhumance takes place in Abruzzi, the region where both my mother's and father's families are from (and where my father was born). This is the historical heartland of long-distance animal driving. Shepherds traditionally move herds from the high Abruzzo mountains down the vast royal tracks (Tratturo Magno) to the plains of Puglia.

In 2019, this practice was recognized in Italy (and in 2023 in Albania, Andorra, Croatia, France, Luxembourg, Romania and Spain) as an Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO
