I accidentally clicked on a reel of a man changing oil, & 5 minutes later my feed is full of man humor, & macho mechanics.🤷‍♀️

We're coming to the end of the semester, and the adjunct teachers got an opportunity to showcase student art at UMSL FAB this week. My Graphic Design I students: project 2--Graphic Compositions. Breaking space with shape and form. A project I designed for my students. Half of them are non-majors. Pretty nice work. ❤️

I teach graphic design in the fine arts building at UMSL, and they've installed a powerful art exhibit in the FAB gallery called "Black Lives Matter Too". Type based imagery with much feeling. Check it out if you're in the area. Minutes away from Ferguson.

It's been peaceful turning off the news lately and escaping into some Pink Floyd with a pencil and paper...

Some very cool, and creative, resume ideas to market yourself when searching for a job.

Burano, Italy. Reflections on a canal. More delightful color palettes!

I took over 3000 pictures while traveling 20 days through Italy. So many great images, so little time to go through all of them. This one is a favorite though. I fell in love with Burano. It had amazing color schemes on every house and shop. I've been dreaming of all the colors since I returned, and decided to create a few color palettes from them.

Very cool window display using color, lines and movement graphic design to enhance the product. Love the colors. For Armani. Florence, Italy.

Swiss graphic design on creamers for an espresso I had today in Switzerland. I couldn't interpret it very well. Anyone else have a clue? 😎

It was the last day of teaching for the Semester. My Freshmen Graphic Design 2 class did a nice job on their first logo designs. They named a fictional urban farm, and researched what kind of logo it would need to convey the feeling of a grocery store/farm sitting on 10 acres in Old North St. Louis. They chose two names: City Farm and Urban Essentials. Five students per name worked on individual logos. 2/colors. Here's a few of them. Kudos to Jonathan, Hahn and Shy! Well done!

I love teaching college students how to use Adobe Illustrator software. Some of my most creative moments are spent with my students as I watch them grow and develop as artists. I feel delighted when I see how much they've learned as Non-art majors with zero art classes ...and look at what they've accomplished. It's Satisfying work. Kudos to my Students: Jon, Trish and Tom from Intro to Digital Media non-art majors.
