Three, Two, One
Last night was the annual Lake Communicators Apex Awards. I’m a member of the Communicators, and always enter
the awards. I’ve won a few before, and, fortunately, last night was no exception.
That’s saying something, too, as competition gets fiercer every year. Going to the Awards makes me want to go back into the studio and kick it up a notch on whatever I’ve got on my plate. It’s a pretty good time, and it’s nice to see and talk to other like-employed people.
The pieces that won are listed below. Click on any title to see the original blog posting with artwork.
Things We Don’t • This was the postcard series I designed for TDA Architecture in Willoughby. You may remember that this won a first place award SMPS award in Los Angeles earlier this year. Given all the travel restrictions, it was nice to pick up the Special Recogniti

Ride ‘em Cowboy • I have to admit, this one is probably my favorite looking piece of the three that won, so I’m glad it got recognized. This is just one of those rare jobs that actually turned out better than I’d expected. It appeared as a cover for The Fort Worth Weekly, and won second place in the Elements of Communication category. It was beat out by…
Welcome to the Jungle • This is the Scene Magazine Best of cover/interior illos that I did last year. It was my second project where I married photos with artwork, and was definitely successful. It’s won another award, this year, too, a First Place Cleveland Press Club award.
