but I promise it won’t be boring.”

This is a picture taken a few months ago outside a gas pump I frequent. No photo manipulation here. Thankfully the service there is greater than their eye for detail.
“Well done is better than well said.”

For today’s sketch, I took a quote from the birthday boy and juxtaposed it on top of some of the headlines from todays Globe and Mail Online home page.
There are two similar daily design challenges taking place for designers in 2010.
One is from Jad Limcaco from Smashing Magazine and the second is from Len Kendall & Daniel Honigman of the newly created site www.the3six5.com
The challenge to designers is to create a design or image everyday for 2010. Both request that you post your artwork to your blog and tweet using a hashtag for ease in following. Jad’s request is for you to use #daily365 while Len & Daniel request that approved authors use #the3six5 (Read Authors Guidelines). The later also request that the designer add a statement along with their work.
My Statement:
“Above is a quick sketch/layout loosely following some guidelines I recall from my 3rd yr typography class with Alex Alter at O.C.A. [now called O.C.A.D. ]. The rules were that the design must be in a square, using a single typeface, no rules/bars or images and in black & white. Many found these rules/guidelines limiting, but for a few of us, it was a fun challenge.”
Game on!
