[me], Putting other graphic designers everywhere out of business

February 5th, 2010 | filed under: Personal | tags: |

So, today a project in graphic design was due. The project was to make a symbol in Illustrator with only black and white that was a metaphor for something else. I didn’t immediately have any great ideas, but yesterday I came up with something that I thought was decent enough.

I started my project last night, then finished it from about 6am to 7:30am ish. I thought it was pretty good, until we went through everyone else’s submissions. Let’s just say mine wasn’t the… best.  I thought I had a good idea and decent a decent piece, but everyone else’s symbols were good.  Sad day.

[don't laugh, and don't take this as sacrilegious--I'm just that bad]

The idea came from an idea originally published by C.S. Lewis that I heard in Bible class that you have to see Jesus as either the Lord (He is who He says), a Liar (He just made things up), or a Lunatic (who else would die for a lie?).  So there you have it.  ;)

And now you know…that I’m kind of a big deal in the graphic design scene. Such work can be found nowhere else.
