A recent article about the possible healing effects of frankincense smoke brought these pieces of my artwork to mind…

My Artwork: Bookmarks! Oh, those pesky li’l bookmarks!
When it comes to “small” I’m used to working on ACEOs, name tags, and business cards.
This layout, though? It bends my brain.
Below, for your consideration: three bookmark designs. (The dimensions for the third one came from a bookmark template provided by a marketing maven. I have NO idea what system they’re set up for, because it sure ain’t VistaPrint… and by the way, VistaPrint? When you provide specs for your bookmarks, I expect your dimensions to correspond to ACTUAL BOOKMARK SIZES. None of this “Oh, the document you end up with is 2.18×1.blahblahblah!” stuff, which only confuses and annoys me.)
But I managed to figure it out in the end. I think. I hope. At any rate, for a first-to-third pass none of these look too shabby. Still some tinkering to do though. With the biggest wrench I’ve got handy.
My Artwork: Vinyl Banner and Business Card
I’ve never worked to 2’x4′ proportions, although I have made my fair share of business cards.
You know what’s really tough?
Bookmarks. Those little beasts are torturous.
For today, though — let’s look at the vinyl banner and the second draft of my business card. All feedback welcomed!
My Artwork: “The Captain’s Cat, Micawber” (2009)
Photoshop work on a photograph taken by a friend (all rights gifted to me), of our beloved cat Micawber, who passed away several years ago. What a dear, big boy! He is still sorely missed.
May his soul play forever among the stars.
My Artwork: “A Wing and a Prayer” (2014)
Is this a hopeful story of peaceful exploration? Or a suspenseful tale of interstellar war?
I still haven’t decided. 🙂
