Inspiration. It can come from anywhere and in the case of the photo above, my awesomely talented and extremely adorable nephew was inspired by the great outdoors. And because I am one proud Auntie, I wanted to show off his photography skills as proof that creative ideas can come from anywhere. I encourage you to unplug, get outside, take a breathe, look around and get inspired.
Now go forth and create.
This is a logo created for a client who owns a nutrition supplement company, Muscle Construction. The client explained heavy weight lifting and that once you lift past a certain amount the bar starts to bend. They expressed a desire to add that recognizable element into their logo. I wanted to keep the logo simple with minimal yet masculine colors. Orange, being a mix of the energy of red and the joy of yellow is a perfect choice to encourage enthusiasm in and out of the gym and competitive arena. Final result… the client was happy. Another win for yours truly & I feel so lucky to work with great people.
Thanks for reading my little creative corner.
Pumped up kids playing at the park surrounded by paint, pattern & polka dots.
A beautiful day at the park with my littles and there was so much for the eyes to feast on. There were the bright colors, the faded/ cracked/ sun drenched texture, the wonderful pattern & oh boy do I LOVE polka dots (they were on my wedding cake, true story) And of course I love playing around with a little alliteration. Inspiration can come from the most unlikely places, so get out there and find yours.
Happy Creating…
Spread the love, follow your passion, be artistic everyday, get messy
& join the creative conversation… basically do what makes you happy.
Cheers…
Here’s to doing what you love. As creatives we should lift one another up in artistic awesomeness so I say go forth and create something amazingly YOUnique. Step outside that comfort zone, color outside of the lines, think outside the box, get messy & have some fun!
The above illustration was a fun example of me stepping out of my comfort zone and trying character illustration. It’s so crisp, simple and fun I just giggle every time I look at it. There will definitely be more illustrations coming soon. As for the colors, I was inspired by Valentine’s Day of course. I think it is a fun & modern spin on the traditional red, white & pink colors.
So go on & get artsy fartsy… I dare ya.
Happy February…
