Latest project to print today

Here's the cover of the 20-page, Portland Children's Levy Annual Report, that I've finally finished and just uploaded to the printer's website. It has so many photos of adorable kids, thanks to Michael McDermott's fantastic eye and ability to catch the kids at the perfect moment. www.michaelmcdermott.com

I love working with all these photos . . . and colors, of course.  Here's the color palette for the report. Fun, young, vibrant ...

My dancing raindrops bringing a Valentines message. If you arrow up and down they animate. The ever versatile raindrops!

Tigard Dog Park Map

As part of The New Burnham Street construction project, the City of Tigard is designing a dog park. Here's an illustrative map I did for it. 

stuff i like

Such a sweet little piece. The illustration style is  light hearted and fun and the colors are unusual. It expresses the sentiment "cheers" perfectly. A sample from a paper company, Neenah, the paper is Classic Columns, a duplex cover sheet: Solar White on one side, Easter Chick Yellow on the other.

Interesting ... a similar color palette but in a more traditional style. This illustration is a cropped portion of one of a series of stamps that portrayed flowering trees from different geographical regions of the US. This is the Pacific Crab Apple. Stamps were 22¢ at the time. Looks like it was 1998.
