So I’ve been holding on to these images for a long time and it’s time to let them go, and end the bison project. These images were pulled from a set that spans years 1902-2000. I can’t tell you how much I’ve wrestled with calling this “done”. You can see how this project changed over […]

It’s been some time and I still can’t get bison off the brain. “Indian Head” or “Bison” nickels were always an object of curiosity when I was young. I’ve been experimenting with creating a little mint of my own from assets from my first bison sketch. I’m playing with the idea of creating a bison […]

Dreaming of Brands – The Honest Way to Improve Your Product
May 13th, 2010 · No Comments · Digital Process
Last night during an epic storm I was rolling in and out of consciousness and ended up having a dream where I was emphatically preaching about branding. Dream Jacob said: “The best brands fulfill an emotional need.“ He continued: “We all use certain products in our day-to-day. The products that we decide to use have […]
