My New Project
I love typography. I love the shapes of letters. I have been toying with the idea of making some kind of art project using typography when I came upon paper quilling. Cutting paper into strips and using them to create some interesting shapes.
Yula Brodskaya has some amazing work combining the two ideas. I thought I would give it a shot. It’s a lot more fun than I thought it would be. Here is the project so far.
If you want to see some of Yula’s work here are few sites: (She does such amazing work)

Fourth of July Camping
I went on a camping weekend for the Fourth of July. It was a blast. I haven’t seen some of these guys in ages. It was a great to see them again. The water was freezing though. Harry kept trying to push me in. I can’t rememeber the last time I has so much fun!

Updating My site
Hey! I’m adding little things here and there to my site. Check it out! I just learned how to make a J Query/JavaScript/CSS sideshow and added it to my site to showcase some of my work. It’s pretty awesome. I really like the simplicity. I’m not a coder by any stretch of the imagination so this was a triumph for me. I’m really glad it works! W00T! (oops I think I’m turning into a geek)
More updates to come so keep checking back!

A Fight
“The life of a designer is a life of fight. Fight against the ugliness. Just like a doctor fights against disease. For us, the visual disease is what we have around, and what we try to do is cure it somehow with design.” Massimo V.
Very True. The ugliness can overwhelm you sense of beauty.

I really like how it turned out. Drawn entirely with a poem. The Frame is the entire poem as well.

So manythings
Life is so busy now a days, new projects popping up everywhere. Family is coming for Easter and spring has finally come to town. The sun is shining and the day is beautiful. Maggie and I walked the Big Dam Bridge yesterday. I had a great time and it was wonderful. Maggie is still tired. Her little feet were all a whir trying to keep up.
She reminded me of the painting by Giacomo Balla “Dynamism of a Dog on a Leash”
Here let me show you :
