Animated Daily Logo Challenge
About one year ago I tried my hand at the Daily Logo Challenge. My approach (which you can read about here!) was to create 3d renderings from my sketches. After I started building the first few designs I realized that, if given the time, I could also animate the designs in a fun and whimsical… Continue reading Animated Daily Logo Challenge
Typographic Letter-Form Table
I've always felt that shape and form were powerful design elements. This most likely entered my conscience by looking through a camera lens and also by viewing the photographic works of Paul Strand. Years later I was reintroduced to this topic while viewing the design work of Malcom Grear who throughout his career mastered the… Continue reading Typographic Letter-Form Table

An interesting twist to these final images presented below. https://youtu.be/AHj9rC-fmYc After reviewing the video and the… Continue reading A Photo Story: Shape and Form

Mpix
The early 2000's were the dark ages of online print services. I tried a bunch of them: Apple, Ofoto, CafePress and probably a few others that are no longer around. They all had one thing in common... the prints were not very good. Then I stumbled upon an Mpix.com advertisement while thumbing through a photography magazine… Continue reading Mpix
