Color Index by Jim Krause. I love this tool for picking colors that go well together. The book suggests color combinations for two, three, and four color palettes. The combinations run the gamut from modern, art deco, intense, earth tones, etc... There is also a section showing colors and how they look with black and grays. I look at this book often to get ideas on color combos for my design work especially logo designing.
This cool poster was designed by my friend and fellow designer/artist, Jaye Fresina. It is a poster for a documentary film by her brother David. I love the bold colors of this poster. It really grabs your attention. I like the use of her bold type. Very dramatic!
To check out Jaye's work visit here. Jaye was recently had a fun write up on her Ninja art on the Thrillist
My newest logo design. The company originally wanted to show a person using a computer with a headset on. I did show them some ideas in that vain. I also, decided to see what the logo would be with just the headset and the company name. They like the colors Maroon and Navy blue. Here is the final.
I have designed this flyer for the Committee Arts at the Endicott Estate. I have joined the Dedham Junior Woman's Club last year. They do lots of great charitable work and contribute to the community. We are hosting a series of concerts this summer. We go from Children's music to Irish to swing. It should be a fun series. After I post this, I am off to take them to to businesses and hopefully they will post these posters. I picked a nice yellow to print them on to attract attention.

My newest cover for the Dedham Historical Brochure. It will be part of historical tours that people can use when walking around historic Dedham Square. It has loads of information about the different Dedham historical houses and buildings. I think this will be the final. I also took the photos for this cover. It was fun getting the detailed shots. This projects is being produced through a collaboration between Dedham Square Circle and Dedham Historical Society.
My latest project for TechGen Financial. The client wanted to represent clients goals for a certain lifestyle or retirement if you have planned it well. This is a binder cover for individual clients. Here I used my own name as a sample. I found the photo from Istockphoto.com One of my favorite sources.
This brochure project was a fun one. This is the final incarnation of the piece. This map is going to be given out to people who are unfamiliar to Dedham Square. They can find out what businesses are in town and there locations. I never knew how many businesses there were. I love to shop locally. The map illustration was done by Dedham resident, Peter H. Reynolds. He does wonderful illustrations for childrens books and alike.
