Introducing…Dear Future Kids, the podcast. It’s a weekly podcast about a little something new coming soon. The podcasts will be put up on the Dear Future Kids site.
The first podcast, DFK 001: Fatigued, Bitter Superhero, talks about where the baby is in development, our preparations for the baby, the sharing of news with our parents, and much more! Enjoy, and keep visiting that site, as we will be posting and adding photos, etc.
My hometown Youth for Christ organization asked me to create a graphic for their new building, called “Crosswalk”. They wanted something that was more of the intersection crosswalk, than overtly Christian but also hoped a cross could be incorporated. I came up with the graphic you see on the building. One is facing the highway and the other is facing the parking lot. A few volunteers painted it by hand this weekend, and did an excellent job if I do say so myself.
My father-in-law is up for re-election and wanted a logo boost and, seeing as we’re related and I’m a designer, I was perfect for the job and glad to do it. Above is actually what I put together for a yard sign – the actual logo is in that navy blue but I think this looks nice too. There’s another version that has “re-elect” and Val’s photo included, but of course, as a yard-sign, it wouldn’t have worked quite well. It’s saved for other pieces. I was honored to do the project and am proud of the results.
My dad is the theater director for my old High School and they are putting on Nunsense: The Mega Musical this year. I created the nun/Charlie’s Angels graphic (as per his request) and put together a poster, shirt, and program for him. Seen above is the program. Nothing flashy, and the nun graphic is a little “unfinished” looking on purpose – given the comical nature of the musical.
In any case, I’m excited to see the performance and it wasn’t so long ago that I played a nun in Murder Can Be Habit Forming in the same theater. Little did I know then, I’d be on the inside of the jokes about Catholicism not many years later. This time, hopefully I won’t be as confused.
I don’t usually post artwork other than my own, (have I ever?) but I think this poster – and all other artwork pertaining to Hot Harvest Nights – is super great. The harvest celebration is going on this Friday at Canaries Stadium in Sioux Falls. Free to those who bring canned goods (to fill the Sioux Falls food banks). Be there! I plan to be!
Artwork was done by Fresh Produce. Fresh Produce is behind Graphic Content, who features area artists. That’s hot(harvest nights)!
