Race Car Shirt Design
I designed a tshirt decal for Todd Johnson's race car team. When deciding on the design I took into account the bright orange, green and purple colors that are on the car itself and decided to incorporate that into the decal design as well. In addition, the driver had specific instructions that he wanted both sides of the car in view in order to show off all of his sponsors. Overall, I think it's a great representation of the car and the race care drivers personality.

New Website Designs
I've delved into the world of web design. I'm earning a certificate in web technologies from an online organization! I started in May with Intro. to HTML, Intro. to CSS, and Dreamweaver. They are wrapping up this week so I'm busy working on final projects now. Next I will be taking Javascript and Advanced HTML with Advanced CSS, Flash and Intro. to XML to follow later on in a few months. I'm very pleased with what I'm learning take a look at a few of my sites... strawberrypatch and racecar.

Steele County Brochure
In June I worked on a brochure highlighting Hope, ND, for Steele County Economic Development located in Finley, ND. This project had a two day turn around and I jumped at the opportunity. There were around 4 revisions from my contact before she took it to the board to get approved. I actually did two different versions, one with sunflowers in the background and one with corn. The board liked them both so much that they decided to get 500 of each printed. After I had sent the files to the printer, my contact noticed a few more things she wanted to add and I was happy to do it, although I would have to resend the files again so they would print with the new additions. I made sure to contact the printer rep to make sure they received the new file and double-checked that they would use the correct version. I am very happy with the outcome and I know the client is too.
Near Northside Neighborhood Historical Plaque
Back in May I had the opportunity to work with Katie Osborn from the Office of Urban Development on a historical plaque for the 'Near Northside Neighborhood' committee. They had a specific idea in mind of what they wanted and they also needed it done in a short amount of time. I was able to put everything else aside in order to get the project done within a couple of days for them. We only went through a couple revisions and within a week I had it sent to the printer in Pennsylvania. Everything went off without a hitch and overall everyone was very pleased with the result. The plaque arrived in June and they were able to get it up the first week of July. It is located near the entrance of the Greenway off of 3rd Street N. and 7th Avenue.
