Howdy, I'm Oliver.
I'm a designer, illustrator, art director, animator, schmoozer, & center fielder based out of Cleveland, Ohio. I firmly believe that a project doesn't stand a chance without a solid concept behind it.

I'm currently a designer at Go Media

Email me: ohbarrett@ohbarrett.com

I'm available for freelance and collaborative opportunities. I'm also available for a firm handshake or an accurate high-five at anytime.

Cheers.

My contribution to Gallery 1988’s Tribute to Bill Murray. Which is set to open November 4th in LA (7020 Melrose Ave to be specific). The piece is going to be screen printed with 3 colors on thick textured paper. The concept is about showing Bill’s characters throughout the last 30 or so years and how both he and his characters have evolved over the years.

In other news, I’ve recently left my full-time gig at Go Media (on good terms of course), to pursue freelancing. So if anyone needs my expertise for any reason, don’t hesitate to get in touch.

It’s been a busy couple of weeks for me. I’ve had a pretty wide range of projects. Check out some shots from them (some are in progress):

This is the beginning of a new body of work that depicts a slight sense of motion and disorientation. More to come from that in the future.

My contribution to the Quentin vs. Coen show next week in NYC. If you’re in the area, you should come check out the show. It’s a show based on characters from the films of the Coen Brothers and Quentin Tarantino. I chose to do a piece on Jules Winnfield from Pulp Fiction. Say ‘what’ again. This is a very limited print run, and will probably sell out at the show. I may have an extra 15 or so of my own that I’ll put up for sale after the show’s over.

UK rock band, To Catch a Thief, approached me about working with them on their new album packaging. They simply provided me with the title and I ran with it and came up with an art direction based on vintage horror films. This is just the cover, the rest of the layout is still in production. More to come later.
