Starbucks cup

So, this weekend, I was able to get a little drawing done. Not much, but I thought I would give ode to the Starbucks cup.

Similarity of Logos II

The second post of logo similarities. This one, I actually got from a friend I met at Wordcamp. While we were enjoying lunch together during the 1 day conference and discussing all things design and wordpress, he observed this. Behold:

Now the question is, which came first?

New Business Card

My first official business cards came in the mail this week. It's pretty exciting. I created the artwork myself. These are the actual scanned in cards, so excuse the dark edges.

come thou fount

I love this song and found this video today that matches it beautifully. It's called come thou fount by sufjan stevens.

Blackberry Cobbler (preserves)

I went blackberry picking last weekend and decided I wanted to bake something with all of these delicious little guys. So, I decided to make cobbler. It seemed like a simple enough recipe. Disregard the fact that I've never baked cobbler in my life and don't really know how it's even supposed to look. So, I started out and had to read the recipe 500 times. I still had no idea what it meant.

Here's my interpretation of cobbler:

Step 1) roll out dough and spread berries over it.

Step 2) melt butter and put it in the pan?


The Baker

The berries get their close up time.

3) sprinkle cinnamon over the berries


4) Roll up dough and berries "jelly style" What have I created? I call it the alien creature.

5) Cut the alien into slices and put in pan

6) spread "syrup" over berries


7) Baked and eaten. It turned out very well.

New Job

Well, this week I started a new job. My first real job to be correct. Career job, that is. Anyway, it was quite an adjustment from unemployed to the working world where you're gone from 8am to 7pm. and are so tired after you get home you don't want to do anything. I guess it's all what you're used to. Well, here is me signing my contract on the first day.

Freedom

I've been playing around a little bit on the computer. I kind of like these ideas for billboards or magazine adverts. No particular brand, just advertising motorcycles in general. The images and drawings are mine, though I must admit that I was too lazy to draw the type, so that is a font.
