My Gift To Santa: Pole Rats


free wallpaper sample: pole dancing rats

Free Wallpaper Week at the Bureau is wrapping up. Today’s wallpaper features Rascal, Ratty and Rufus – three very talented pole dancing rats. Inspired by the pet rats I had as a child and some party straws that a friend gave me, this one doesn’t make much sense. But it’s fun to look at. You’re welcome, Santa, now bring me that dobro I wished for!

White Noise / Let it Snow


Free wallpaper "White Noise / Let it Snow" in blue, silver or charcoal.

Just another day of Free Wallpaper Week at the Bureau. Spending hours shopping for the holidays or putting up with your drunk Uncle Charlie’s antics while decorating the tree/menorah/yak hut can drive many a sane person batty. Sometimes you just want to tune it all out. Now, instead of staring for hours at your computer’s default screensaver, you can use this white noise pattern to take a mental intermission from the stresses of December (or any other month). Enjoy!

Like a Glove: A Love Story


A personal project I’ve been working on this fall is finally complete! It’s wintry tale of smitten moose, fuzzy creatures and a house in the woods. Is it a drama, documentary, romantic comedy or porno flick? The verdict is still out.

Printed on a variety of colored papers using white flocking (fuzzy stuff, fun to touch), the poster is for sale in the newly constructed Bureau Shop. You can see more pictures and read about the process here.

Merry, Happy, Joy and Tidings


free wallpaper: "Merry, Happy, Joy and Tidings" in strawberry. An owl, deer, fox and bear wish you a happy holiday.

Yep, it’s Free Wallpaper Week at the Bureau. For the season of giving I’ve made some wallpapers that you can use on nearly any mobile device you can think of! Today’s wallpaper is available in 5 colors of holiday orientation (except for strawberry, which is more of a June color, which I guess is good for folks south of the equator). Each of the color combinations can be downloaded as a spot illustration or a tiling pattern. I hope you enjoy them, and spread the wallpaper cheer! Continue reading “Merry, Happy, Joy and Tidings”
