Over the past six months, my blogging has been sporadic at best, so naturally there have been a few news items that got lost in the shuffle. So what better way to recap everything than with a nice, big post with pictures?

My Photography Featured in Food Network Magazine

If you recall, I announced this past May that my photo of Lindsay and her Fresher Than Fresh Snowcones trailer was featured in the June issue of Food Network Magazine. After finally getting my hands on a copy of the issue earlier this summer, I was pleasantly surprised to see just how big the photo appeared in the spread. Lindsay has since closed the stand for the winter, but be sure to follow her on twitter to see when she opens it once again in the spring!

My Quote Featured in Brand New’s Sketchbook

Back in June, Brand New’s Armin Vit asked readers to contribute why they sketch logos. Selected responses were to be included in a new mystery product, with winners receiving their own copy. Imagine my surprise to not only be included in the project, but also to find this delightful sketchbook in my mailbox about a month later! Thanks, UnderConsideration!

My response? “When sketching, you’re already reducing the logo down into 2 flat colors: it helps me think about the form and technical issues before I make it ‘fancy.’”

Firebelly’s Reason to Give Show an Inspiration

Finally, on a side note, I was able to attend Firebelly Design’s Reset. Play! show which was a benefit for their Reason to Give non-profit. The show was very inspirational and had some awesome work. Plus, it was a great opportunity for an impromptu reunion of Camp friends from this summer (at least the ones currently in Chicago). All of the work was great, but I especially loved the typographic explorations by Will and Darren.
