DIY Wed. Two former co-workers, who ditched their jobs in sales to use their design degrees, artisitcally collaborated for the first time. If you haven’t guessed one of the fore mentioned is me & the other is local artist Nicole Haney. As you can see the results were, well, fantastic! Her knowledge of printmaking & mine of graphic design joined forces to make the kind of wedding invitations people blow entire paychecks to purchase. Please take note of the shine paper & the neon ink.

Graffiti in Paris. I’m a fan of street art & everything I know on the topic I owe to my good friend & artist Zachary. I really enjoyed what I saw on the streets of Paris. Since I had no background knowledge of the names, crews or even the language my brain viewed it as abstract art. I was drawn to the color combinations & juxtaposition of bright edgy designs and classically elegant architecture.

Lovely Lonny. For all of you still pining away for now defunct domino magazine, the newest issue of Lonny Magazine is out. I must say as the issues progress I enjoy it more than domino as the magazine now covers fashion. However, even though the online publication is free, I really miss having a tangible magazine I can hold in my hand. Check it out HERE.

Riki & Brien were married November 1st on a beautiful fall day in downtown Cleveland, Ohio. The outdoor ceremony was framed by an industrial landscape and the colorful fall leaves. Guests were warmed by bon fires & vowes written by the bride & groom.
The reception took place in the adjacent warehouse converted loft where the bridal party spent the weekend. The fall theme carried through the entire event; centerpieces made of cheery tree twigs, chocolate brown table cloths, and bouquets made of cabbage, mint, vibrant lillies & wrapped in feathers. Instead of a cake, the couple constructed a multi tiered tower of Krispy Kreme Doughnuts & the food was made from local ingredients purchased at the West Side Market.
