Speak.

When I stop and think about my favorite part of design and what I enjoy most - it is without hesitation that I think of - the creative use of fonts/color and words. I always have joked that my dream job would be to work for Hallmark - and it still is. To be able to write greeting cards would be the highlight of my professional career. However, in the meantime, I have started creating prints - prints with meaning. More than a quote, more than a feeling, it's a definition....a definition of what's important to you. I've done a few pieces custom for clients, but last night, in a funk after feeling let down, I sat and brainstormed all of the pieces of what makes me who I am. I coupled those thoughts with colors that reflect me as a person and put together a pretty awesome print. The birth of "Speak." was born last night.

For some time now, I have wanted to move forward with pieces like these. In the early beginnings I created something similar on canvas - calling it "A play on words" --this is a bit more refined and has an awesome use of fonts. In the next few weeks I will be creating more pieces to the Speak. line. Within in the line, you will find a variety of purchase options - you may even choose to have me create a custom piece for a gift recipient in mind. I will offer prints in a variety of sizes and will offer framing options. I can't wait to move forward with this....Speak. will be a reflection of my true design love. It will be me, my words, and how I view subject areas. I long to create pieces for different professions, for moms, dads, daughters, sons, pets, you name it. Stay tuned.

And as always, thanks for stopping by!
