How Illustrator Saved My Life…

…or at least this project. I’ve been stressing out about a logo design. It just wasn’t QUITE there yet. Just now, I went to open up the Illustrator file, and when I selected the file on my desktop, I got that mashed-up Illustrator preview—all the layers at once.

Usually annoying,and a mess, this time, the quirk actually gave me an insight into what a hybrid, amalgam, MASH-UP of my various ideas for the logo would look like, and VOILA!—a better solution!

We’ll see if it turns out to “The One”. More to come…

Cormac enjoying his first birthday with a cupcake. Couldn’t get it into his mouth fast enough.
(This is after lasagne, too, as you can tell.)

Finn’s art project from Sunday

I hired Finn to spruce up my guitar. The original plan was flames, but he went for something a little more abstract in the end. Maybe he found out that when I originally bought this I was really into Living Colour…

What’s the ideal project for a guy who loves dogs as much as he loves designing logos?
