Some of you may know that I've been a caregiver specializing in memory care and various special needs, mostly with the elderly. But before all that I was a kid in art schools with dreams of having a family, being a great dad to my kids, and creating art of all kinds. Over the years life hasn't been the easiest and my art dreams always took the backseat on this wild ride. I've been pushing myself to make it more of a priority the last 2years or so and I'm so happy to share this new art with you all. The last two nights while Livestreaming on TikTok, I redesigned and finished the main version of my logo! I'm always so critical of my work through the whole process but this time around with each section getting closer to finished... I just loved it! Finally having a logo that has grown with me and is finally a reality.. it's a great feeling and none of it would be possible if it weren't for all the positive feedback and support from all of you. Seriously.. I've been struggling with feeling like a failure and not being good enough for so long.. it really feels like I can make this happen. I'm working on more commissions now than I ever have in like a decade or so.. I'm working on a logo for some friends' business venture (very excited for them and wish them nothing but success) I'll share more on that later on another post. I have another logo for a friend's business cards that I'm very excited to be a part of. Also working on a few pieces to add to my shops. It's really becoming a reality during one of the hardest times in my life. The pandemic affected us severely and basically destroyed my wife's business to the point she had to rebrand and rebuild from the ground up. We're going to have to move and find a new home in about 2months with little to no prep time... Your support in all ways has really helped keep me out of a dark place and keep my hopes up. Thank you all again soo much, you have no idea how much it keeps me going. Sorry for the lengthy post but it's important to me and I just really want to be as transparent as I can with you all, it's who I am, no gimmicks or sales pitches, just a down to earth guy trying to pursue his dreams and take care of his family. Any who.. here is my new logo and I can't wait until I can wear it with pride and keep creating new art for you all to enjoy!
