Design Class

The first big assignment in my design class was due a few weeks ago.Â It was my first time using Adobe Illustrator, and the task was to make a poster for an event using an Art Deco style. I chose to make a poster for one of my favorite local bands, Chris Merritt.Â I love his music, and I’ve probably seen him in concert at least 10 times over the past few years.

On a whim, I sent him an e-mail with the poster attached to get his opinion. He liked it and asked me if he could use it for his next concert. I obliged… and so it shall be. Here it is (feel free to critique it… I like constructive criticism):

Reoccurring Thoughts

surprise-flowers This message has gone through my head countless times over the past few months. I needed to share it. And since my blog is what sharing is all about, well, here it is… the deepest desires of my simple little man-heart. (And if you want to read it instead of listening to it, click here.)

Magic Fingers

All I can say is God bless the hands of Gene Harris. This literally made my jaw drop and my eyes water. This is true talent and musicianship in its purest form.
