Refresh Winchester
I was absolutely thrilled when I found out that Refresh was coming to Winchester. I had previously been driving in to D.C. So you can only imagine how excited I was when asked to design the logo for it. For those not familiar with the area, Winchester is located at the northern most tip of…
Dont Tread On Me
I was recently requested by American Majority to updated the famous “Dont Tread On Me” Gadsden flag of the coiled snake, using the two colors from their logo for posters they wanted to get printed. My instructions were to update it as much as possible while retaining the feel of the original. With these instructions…
Bad day
No, not the old 2005 Daniel Powter song (although it’s been playing in the back of my head since I started this post).

Then it hit me, if donkeys are notoriously stubborn, wouldn’t this be more like it? To all a very Merry Christmas, and…

You can set up multiple “stations”, one for every mood. They’re currently taking submissions for their second annual poster contest to support Global Giving. Above is…
The Dork Knight
Like so many other people, I braved the opening weekend of the premier of the latest installment of the new Batman movies, “The Dark Knight”. Actually it was part of my birthday celebration. Since the kids, my wife and I rarely get out alone. So, as a gift, my wife arranged for a sitter and…
