Hand Out

I recently spoke to a group of junior/senior graphic design students at my alma mater. I presented to the AIGA St. Louis community late spring commemorating my Fellow Award honor and would retool the presentation for this audience. This was somewhat exciting considering I graduated there 20 years ago. The presentation theme was about my creative path, in general, how I veered off and started new paths, and followed paths that would lead to new opportunities. For obvious reasons, I used my hand as the dominant visual but incorporated the language of palm reading as a metaphor. Needless to say, the poster was a hit and now a template for future presentation promotions.

Weed & Feed

If anyone out there has any question that Missouri is a swing state - look no further. When our second-grader came home from school with his 'political action' poster and we saw that great footnote at the bottom, I realized these commercials and radio spots impact more than just mom and dad!
