It's been quite some time since I've updated this blog. Why so long? Life, work, general business. I've learned that it's quite hard to keep going on a project such as this when so many other things need attention. I have thought about how to turn this blog into something more useful, something I would enjoy writing in everyday and something which may be of interest to other designers. I can only

If you haven't read Part One, click here.Licensing is not a hard field to break in to, though it does require patience and time. The first step is to determine which types of goods and merchandise on which you feel your art would work best. Does it lend itself to greeting cards, gift wrap/bags, notebooks, stickers, bedding, t-shirts, wall art, ceramics, etc. Go to the store, look around and

I need to interrupt my Licensing talk with a brief mention about a fantastic blog. Tiny Art Director is a blog about a father (and artist) and his now four year old daughter who gives him requests as to what to draw and whose critique is recorded after she is presented with the finished piece. It is hilarious and not unlike some remembrances of meetings with difficult clients. And, his work/his

At a dinner I recently attended ordered tea with my dessert. The waitress brought out a selection I had never seen before—Timothy's™. While I find the type something to be desired, I very much like the triangular packaging. I was also pleased that the tea bag itself was shaped as a triangle.Finding a package which is suitable and aesthetically pleasing is always a challenge for a package designer

This is the news I've been waiting to hear. Veer now has a low budget "marketplace" for stock imagery just like iStockphoto, luckyoliver and others. While I am all for paying full price for limited rights of a stock image, this option helps out my economically challenged clients AND students who have little money.Veer is now offering "over 100,000 images priced as low as $1."

My Graphics II class obviously loves me. This was drawn on the board while I was meeting with students. The tag around the octopus monster reads "Bosler". The other text reads "lo-res images", "magazine project" and "widow, you fail". The rest of it reads "Hi younger and less sleep-deprived CD majors... RUN while you still can! Yours Truly, Graphics 2 students."I think this is hysterical, and

I thought I'd share the latest in thank you cards for my LLC. These little monsters have really taken on a life of their own.

This week I came home to a wonderful surprise. A smart little package was addressed to me from a dear friend who teaches at Moore College of Art. Inside was a t-shirt and notes from both my friend and an intern I had working for me this summer. Moore's Business of Illustration class held a t-shirt contest and my intern, Amanda, was the winner!

In several of my classes I have been asked questions from students interested in doing freelance work. There are any questions as to what to charge, how to do taxes, how to manage time, how to go about finding clients, etc. There are so many things I could talk about that I'd like some help narrowing it down. I'm happy to answer just about anything you can throw at me (granted it's about

I'm always on the lookout for interesting and new ways to present information. I find information graphics to be quite dull as a whole. A pie chart here, a graph there, it certainly presents the information clearly but as a designer I'm always looking for something more. How can a designer truly show what the graphic says. How can little bits of information be put together to both visually and

I surf regularly to keep up on the design world. It's not healthy, as a designer, to create in a vacuum. The world is full of unexpected and ingenious inspiration and it only takes a few minutes to see it.Recently, I've come across Tigerprint (click here to check out their main site and portfolio).

This thought has come up to me over and over. Being out in the field for a long time, I tend to feel the need to reinvent myself from time to time. I get bored with how I present myself and need a change. One of the most prominent parts of my identity is the typeface I choose to represent who I am. Currently I have some inconsistency issues.

Design is about the idea. It's a well know fact that the better the idea, the better the design. And our goal as designers is to figure out that idea. It's the one that pops into our head and makes us giddy. It's the one that can't come out fast enough as we desperately try to draw as fast as our brain is working. It's that one brilliant, shining, fabulous idea that will ultimately save the

Writing is a topic of conversation usually left out when talking about graphic design. We use typography, letterforms, quotation marks, commas and such, but we rarely talk about the words beyond kerning and point size. What do the words really mean?A great deal actually. Words provide the content which leads to the design, connotation, choice of imagery, choice of color, choice of typeface and

I realize New York Life has a long history of being a well established company. It was founded 160 years ago after all. You'd think that a company with such rich heritage would take just as much pride in their logo.Look how beautifully kerned the word New is. The letters touch forming elegant ligatures. The N and E even share the same stem - how marvelous. While the letters in York don't touch,

Ask any designer what makes the perfect client, and they'll all give you the same reply: the one who lets you do whatever you please. In a perfect world, all clients would be this way. As designers, we have the education, the training and the experience to know precisely what would work best for the target audience, and we're rarely short of innovative and creative ideas to engage that audience.

Beautiful, bountiful text, I do profess my love and devotion. You have the power to shape my lustful thoughts as I have become obsessed with the flawlessness of your form. Oh whisper to me in words of clarity and subtleness. The exquisite structure of your body emphasizes the movement through the pages of my heart. As the individual flowers of your garden do blossom into silhouettes of delicate

Design is all about communication. Ads, magazines, packages, brochures, logos, etc. all communicate to the viewer through visual and verbal cues. The complexity of the information can vary but the targeted result is the same. Create desire and encourage comprehension. The challenge of publication design is to simultaneously make an enjoyable environment for the eyes and make text easily readable

Pantone has done it before and has done it again. They have predicted what the color of the year will be.This year's pick is PANTONE 18-3943 Blue Iris, a beautifully balanced blue-purple, as the color of the year for 2008. "It best represents color direction in 2008 for fashion, cosmetics and home products," explains Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of the Pantone Color Institute. "As a

OK so here goes. This is my second experience with this blog thingy. My first was asking health questions on my cousin's wife's blog to help her get a good grade in her nursing class. It was kind of a family duty but she did get a good grade.Sooooooooooo these things have a tendency to make my mind go blank. I stare at the screen wiggle my nose like Samantha Stevens and try to think design

Yesterday I was introduced to a new font. I fell in love. It was suggested as a solution by a fellow designer for a solution to a stationery system we're working on. I've hired her on to help me with this job as school as started and all of my fabulous students need more of my time. It works out quite well though. She and I have always been on the same wavelength when it comes to design so her

Once a month, brightly colored piles of paper bound together invade my home. Some are beautiful pieces of design, some are most definitely not. What they all have in common however, is the ability to make me want to put down whatever I'm working on to open up the pages and read them. Seriously, it doesn't matter if I'm grading student work, creating a new design for a client or cooking dinner;

Even design students even know better than to do this kind of blatant copying. Trent Reznor and David Carson need to call their lawyers.Are there no unique ideas left in the world? *sigh*

Having gotten tired of my current font collection—16,000 fonts or so, and yes, I admit it is sad that I need new ones—I made a visit to my favorite site for purchasing fonts, Veer.com. I wanted something new, something exciting, something other than my old standbys. Don't get me wrong, I love Trade Gothic, perhaps a little too much. As a designer I need to remember that while a typeface may work

DESIGNThe year started out strong with the addition of a new client and reappearance of another. The new client has turned out to not only be a steady client but a great one as well. It's hard to tell when deciding to take on a new client, but this relationship was meant to be. I've had the opportunity to do a huge amount of work with them over the entire year ranging from advertising and trade

As a graphic design professor and freelance professional I come across so many things that make my skin crawl. Comic Sans, Papyrus, the use of Powerpoint to create a brochure, embedding a file in Illustrator instead of linking, creating a magazine spread entirely in Photoshop at 72dpi (type and all), but the thing that gets my goat most is poor kerning. Why?It's about the details. If a student or
