It was a surprise going back to Canada for New Years and walking the streets of Fort Langley and seeing my logo design for an old client on prominent signage in a new part of town. Glad to see them still going strong

Logo for an old friend who's chasing his gifts and bringing joy to kids through music. If you're in Calgary and have kids you need to check him out. Making people like Ray look good is why I have my gifts and brings me great joy. Go rock the world Ray.

Some hand lettered logos I've had the joy to work on at @pivotgroup #handlettering #logos #logodesigns (at Pivot Group)

In honor of Martin Luther...done for Pivot Group. I am picturing a generation of young Africans taking up this message of vulnerable love that changes our hearts and minds. It is their indomitable spirit and willingness to love in spite of suffering that inspires me...more than cynicism or frustration with consumerism ever could. I'm thinking of my orphan friends in the Philippines and African villages from my youth when I post this.

Stay thankful

Thank you to Mark Caneso for a fun workshop introducing me to ambigrams and a brief look at his process when drawing type
