Suburban War.

Continuing to push my typographic mind. I really love the hand-drawn, illustrative stuff, but also want to push myself to try other avenues like this.

Pequot Lakes Fun.

My wife and I celebrated our 1 year anniversary this past weekend up north in Pequot Lakes. During coffee I had a little fun with the pine needles that were laying on the picnic table.

More found type.

Seattle pic. Great texture. I love the first “E” in “CLEANERS.”

Front VW on an old school van in Seattle.

Pillow making.

My wife and I purchased an old seed sack at an antique store in Northern Minnesota. We’re going to make a couch pillow out of it. I thought the texture/color/typography was fantastic.

Raymaker Photography.

Working on a logo for my friend Paul Raymaker who’s a nature photographer out in Seattle. He’s got great work  you should check it out. Here’s where things are at. Basing the logo on a grizzly bear photo he shot in Yellowstone.

 

Wednesday Sketch.

I recently got a new job, which I’m very excited about. I’m also running a trail marathon in Northern Minnesota (26.2 miles in the woods and up hills) this weekend. I leave tomorrow for the race and start my new job on Monday. So, today was just a day for me to reflect, hang out, read, drink coffee, listen to tunes and sketch. Here’s what I did today.

Type from Seattle.

Here’s a collection of photos I took while in Seattle.
