Inspires me to try more experimental stuff. Make sure to take a look at the I.C.E. Poster
Ptarmak. Not only is the spelling of their name fun to figure out and the branding a challenge to lock down, but the font combination is a real treat on the eyes

Large sunglow tomato {Solanum lycopersicum} picture. Photo free for download and use. I would love to hear how you use it. Some people refer to this as a sungold tomato.
This was harvested from our tomato plant on the south side of our house.
I wonder if this photo will become as popular as my grape photo I posted a few years ago.
I’m absolutely loving the error I got when printing out a presentation for a client. Look at the way the letters started to peel from the surface of the paper. It comes from having a fully supported black (c100 m100 y100 k100) printed on a laser printer with a bad fuser.
Creativity pro tip: relish and learn from the surprising error. Sometimes the surprising “error” leads to a new perception and innovation.
For years, movie posters have utilized Carol Twombly’s font creation Trajan. There’s even a montage of covers here. Thankfully, it’s a well drawn font. Let’s all be grateful that we don’t encounter Avant Garde on many movie posters. There may be a bold new font on the rise and a few people have asked me about it. It’s called Brothers, designed by John Downer at Emigre. It’s accompanied by a great set of alternate glyphs, word logos and elements. I first used Brothers on an identity project 5 years ago and I’ve enjoyed it ever since due to it’s bold, chiseled and lithographic forms.
We just finished the posters for an upcoming event in the Provo Shops at the Riverwoods.
We developed the name, copywriting for promotion, visual style, and radio ad messaging. By the way, it’s going to be a lot of fun. Bring your family.

Create-a-font-in-30-minutes exercise. It’s a display font, not meant for body text. I included a few alternate characters. Inspiration came from the cross hairs in my camera view finder.
