Brendan Totten

Brendan Totten – Designer

Award winning narrative and editorial illustrator and designer.

Overview

Brendan Totten is a Rube Goldberg machine that converts coffee into drawings, prints and illustrations. Originally cobbled together from spare parts in and around Washington D.C., his mechanisms were refined at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston. Having recently relocated to Ireland, he now splits his time between the Emerald Isle and the good ol' US of A. When not whirring and clattering away on artwork, Brendan can be found in the company of crickets attempting to gain sentience.
