Welcome to my blog. Here is the place that I catalog some of my own work as well as some of the inspirations I find along the way. Sometimes I stumble on an artist or site that I like and I don't want to forget about it. Sometimes I post work that I do. It's here to share, but also to keep track of all the projects I have done. Feel free to comment.
I have been seriously slacking on my personal blog this summer. I have had the fortune of being very busy working on tons of projects with various clients, enjoying the company of friends, becoming a photo buff with my new camera and as spending time with family this hot summer.
The most notable achievement this summer is the continued success of my business that I started in May with a few partners. Balls Marketing has managed to maintain several “in-house” accounts as well as develop projects for a few outside accounts. I have been focused on creating an identity for the new company as well as maintaining the internet presence and portfolio as well as new client efforts. It has been a little overwhelming, but rewarding all the same. I will post about the venture shortly and share all the great links.
The photos above are from our recent trip to Denver that caps a busy summer. Meanwhile, I will be working on updating my personal blog with all the work I have done in the last year and all the photos I have taken with my new camera. Hope ya’ll have been having a great time this summer as well!
I have been working with some security companies lately, and it is hard to develop security logos that have not been done before. I wanted to provide SMS with several high tech looking logos. The client requirements were simple, use SMS and nothing else, make it look techy.
A new site for a growing security company in Las Vegas. They needed a new polished look for their rapidly growing business that caters to commercial and residential clients. Sting Systems
This is the approved identitiy of a new social network coming on-line in a few months. We worked on several revisions and this simple look complimented the theme and business purpose of the site.
I created a new identity for a regular act in a Las Vegas casino. The artist is well known and they are moving their regular venue to this casino. They wanted a whole new look to accompany the fomat change.
I have been creating some materials to expand my self promotion, and as a Graphic Designer you need to step with your best foot forward. So I decided to make some nice simple cards about a week ago. I received the business cards that I ordered from Uprinting.com and I am pleasently suprised by the quality and turnaround. They offer a nice interface to order your printing and proofing online. Their turnaround was remarkably fast, and the product was better than I expected for a $29 print job. The paper quality was thicker then I would expect from a printer in this price range, and the color and trim work was spot on. They definitely give you a bang for their buck. I have used several online printers, and so far, these guys are the best. I recommend.
