For those who didn't make it to the Unisource Paper show last week, you missed getting copies of a number of cool posters from designers such as Lowercase, Tandemodus, Thirst and us! I really wanted to share mine with the masses because I took a very different approach than most—making mine an interactive piece. It's meant to inspire and be a reference over time. Hopefully something you'd use again and again.
I've created an 11 x 17 version for you to download and print. If you'd like a copy of the 24 x 36 version, we'll be printing up our own (more sustainable) later this year and they'll be available at our Holiday Pop Up Shop on December 4th and there after on our website. A great way to start the new year!

Following the first Firebelly exhibition I've had the opportunity to be a part of this last weekend, I've thought a lot about maintaining the creative side of my work outside of the office.
Part of the reason I'm here is due to the encouragement these guys gave me when I first met them all. My main question coming into the design community was how do you get a chance to do the types of work that you love doing but aren't always affordable and practical within the allotted timeline.. the FB answer - you just do it.
These last couple of weeks have been a real eye opener as we all worked hard on pieces for the gallery show. All the effort paid off and we had a really successful opening night.
For me, talking with so many people about my work and getting a ton of feedback on the pieces/concepts was a huge help and a massive encouragement to do more. I'm definitely pumped to push things a lot harder now.
My new goals for the season… Work consistently multiple times a week. Collaborate with others on projects, and get the work out there for feedback as much as possible!
Anyone reading this should do the same. Keep creating work for yourself. You need a moment to try something somewhat crazy every now and then.
