The Professional Difference
This is a sample from Filnanies. They had a lovely image that they used in every ad, that sadly was a copy of a JPG. NO jpgs as logos! Please. Send me your Jpgs and I will make them a Vector Image. Makes me feel young again tracing stuff like in school :)
See the difference for your self. This Vector will always print perfectly no matter the size. And ok I styled it a bit. Who needs that much hair anyway?

Makeover story: International Nannies
Those shows are great, I must admit they are a guilty pleasure. In the Graphic Design world I think a great make over is one that simplifies your look. A little bit cleaner, a little but modern. This is one of my favorite makeovers or Make-under more like it.
I kept the same main elements: globe, bear, and the funky font but cleaned it up a bit. I love the bear.
Some rules I go by:
-No more than 2 fonts for a logo.
-Maximum 5 colors.
-Go crazy with different tones of the same color. Like don't mind my 5 different blue tones logo:)

Me Blogging- Intro
As if I don't spend enough time in front of my computer, bring on a blog, the logical next step to less time in the outdoors. There are bugs out there anyway... and tanning is bad for you.
Anyway I realized this will be an easier method to update my work and do my "incredible witty" commentaries on my design and other people's too, yeah. And my first tip of the day, blogging gets your name out there, those ranking sites like to see your brand everywhere, and the more related content the better. -- So this is a G rated blog, but who I am kidding, it will most likely be PG13, knowing me. -- With helpful information for small business and Wahms and one of this days with my comic strip. yeah blogging on.
Oh yeah about me and what makes me interesting to read amongst the billion of blogs out there:
Designer, illustrator, photographer, make up artist, in that order, well the order that makes me money :) - at least it's never boring.
First mural at 3, never stopped drawing since. Lived in Mexico until 1999. Never fitted the mold anyway. After university packed my things and moved to Canada. 8 cruel winters later, and the question asked 561 times: what the hell I am doing here if Mexico has such nice weather? this is home. �
