Preparing to re-brand myself this next year...would love to have some opinions. Doesn't mean I'll listen (I'm stubborn that way), but I'm curious what you think. Like one, hate one, love'em all, hate 'em all - weigh in and let me know your thoughts.

New identity for a Churches children's ministry in Iowa - had fun on this one - even though direction was changed too many times.

Decided to make the graphic into a t-shirt for the team at RED. Hopefully printing soon.

Fall Fun Fest or PHALL PHUN FEST...can't wait for autumn.

Another logo project - first phase. We'll see what happens.

chip@kx-3.com (Chip) — Thu, 30 Jul 2009 20:36:00 +0000

Something new...don't know if they'll like it...but I enjoyed the process.

chip@kx-3.com (Chip) — Thu, 23 Jul 2009 15:18:00 +0000

The final choice and the breakout elements...best part, I have some new ideas that can be adjusted for new projects on the horizon.Already have a request for the tank.

During this slow summer, I've had one project that has been very enjoyable. Here are the comps created for a new faith experience for students on a non-parochial private school campus. The entite process has been fun creatively... I'll post the final decision next.

Recent work for a client in the bay area of VA. A new young adult church. They are developing a year long campaign to make a difference one person at a time. The name was their brainchild and I enjoyed the experience following their direction and vision. Which one do you think they chose?

Rock-a-billy...fun music, but I'm not actually a big fan. I was struggling creatively at the end of last week, and so I began to fish for something to kick start the engine. One afternoon while reading an email I came across a spelling error, the idea for a goat concept was born. Here's the pencil sketch that birthed the idea of doing it as a shirt. I haven't submitted to any of the online competitions in quite awhile...so hopefully this will get some reaction over at Threadless...if accepted, I'd appreciate your vote!

On a little family get-a-way this week...enjoying a friends cabin in the GA mountains. Stole some time to finally play. Didn't have a way to scan , will probably re-illustrate portions of this but it felt good to get the set completed in the first phase...tomorrow, just pencils and sketch pad - who knows maybe a post or two will come of that time. Oh, gotta go hear 16 yr old girls making a little too much noise...

Thought I should post today - haven't been consistent with this and I think I figured out why...I don't typically enjoy uploading art created for work...I'd rather post creations from my own exploration and enjoyment of my craft - but life hasn't afforded me that luxury - time slips away so fast or is eaten up by other responsibility. So in lieu of my own lamenting, I decided to post some of the theme work that I've been creating...not the most exciting but better than brochures and booklets. Keep commenting and encourage me to discipline the free time to play with my own ideas!

A design I created for a client the other day that really connected with me. Every now and again when creating I have these "aha" moments...this was one. I hope you enjoy.

It sums up grace - you see we are weak, we goof up often, we are not who we desire to be - the reality is we STINK. Here's the cool part - God through Christ offers us his grace, kind of like a gas mask that makes our weakness, our fallen actions... our stench bearable.

Guess what? My reality says U STINK...God says I understand, here take my grace...put it on, then tell another stinky one.

A new banner for the youth hallway at church (16'x3'). This is our rallying cry for 2009 and the verse that we are using. RED is the name of our student ministry.
Special thanks to all who prayed for my weekend in Va. God is good!

This was fun...these are the type of opportunities that really satisfy. I get creative control of the theme, the product, the weekend and I get to share my faith. I am really looking forward to this weekend. It will also be special because I'm traveling with my daughter (15) and experiencing the event with her. If you are a praying person - toss one up for me this weekend.

Below is the event graphic and the poster.

Had a prospective new account ask to see some of my logo work so I created these pages. I wanted to showcase style, process and variation. I'll probably continue to develop this presentation method.

chip@kx-3.com (Chip) — Wed, 10 Dec 2008 00:02:00 +0000

Some freelance projects and one for fun.

Just fooling around...no client, no specific task or target, certainly no money...just letting it arrive from the pencil and then messing around to see what I get. Quite honestly, I'm just doodling on paper and in the computer hoping I'll stumble onto that happy accident. If not it's still a great escape.

Ever have one of those moments when you need to escape the project that's on the desk? Had that episode today - I didn't have time to run far so I reached for the sketch book just to be inspired - dare I say it - by my past. Stumbled across this one - never did anything with it but just revisiting it visually, helped boost me on and back to the project at hand.

Helping out the church - it's fall festival time again. This week I start the promotional campaign or is cam -PAIN. Actually I really enjoy doing this kind of stuff.

chip@kx-3.com (Chip) — Fri, 19 Sep 2008 23:17:00 +0000

Okay, I guess we're not done. The client decided that something with less overall detail might be better for them - here's my first set of solutions. If you are at all interested - leave a comment with your vote (I have my favorite - but I'm not telling). Although I really enjoy this type of work, I'm ready to move on to alternate uses for this item or just move on. Enjoy.
