My blog hasn't been updated for a while so I figured it a good idea just to explain why. Why is because I've been busy as EVER! While I've gotten only rejection letters back from a few of my picture book submissions...the design side of things has been great!
One thing I've been busy with is a lot of renderings and other design for a company in New York called Populate: Drawing People In. I can't really talk about the projects I did for them because each involves 2011 ad campaigns for some major companies. But I will say that a major soft drink company, a leader in dress pants, and a technological giant have some really cool campaigns coming soon and I am glad to have had a hand in pitching them!
Other projects that I can only "mention" are the work I did for the CDC (Centers for Disease Control & Prevention)...but there is some neat stuff going on there too!
Some stuff that I can actually talk about, for one, is all the stuff I've been doing for MSI (Motor Service, Inc.). I've been handling a rebranding of their company since early this year, which has included everything from new business cards, to truck decals, to merchandising items, to carbonless forms. It has been a well-rounded project to say the least.
With all this design work, I feel lucky to get away from the computer screen every now & then...and some recent t-shirt screen printing orders I've gotten have helped that!
Also, in whatever spare time I get, I have been developing a mini-comic or zine that is nearing completion (that's the cover above). I will be targeting some underground comic stores and indie bookstores to sell some of these things so look for them soon! If you want to pre-order a copy just shoot me an email.
And the last thing is always my side project RockScratch...I'm always adding new stuff there so check it out. I'm running a 20% OFF Holiday Sale...so now's a good time to take a look!
Well, I think that covers most of what I've been doing lately...I'm going to get back to it, but have a happy Christmas season!
Bis dann!
