After 4 YEARS of not getting COVID, it finally happened upon returning from San Diego Comic Con. In my week long isolation, while resting and recovering, I thought a great deal about the things I really want to accomplish and how grateful I am for the opportunity to do so. Among the list of ideas was to recommit to daily creativity. With this in mind, I'm challenging myself to a daily design ritual. For the next 30 days, I will create a new digital design inspired by whatever moves me in the moment. I often take photos of random things or make a note of a phrase that I hear and say "I'll do something with that later". Well, later is now.
To help keep me honest/motivated, I'll be posting my designs daily on Instagram and adding them to my TeePublic Store. Are they all going to be T-shirt worthy? Probably not. But that's not really the point. The point is to DO THE THINGS - as best and as passionately as you can.
So here's 8/7: "Please No More Adulting Today"
I think it looks particularly good on a navy blue background. As seen HERE.

And here's 8/8: One Way DC
I took this photo in Washington DC (May of 2022) while on a business trip. I loved how the muralist just painted over the One Way sign. To me this is the literal interpretation that there is more than One Way to be an artist.
