Battery Design

Since their inception int he early 18th century, the battery has become one of the main power sources for industrial and domestic applications. This demand for a portable power source has created a multi-billion dollar industry. Here are some examples of the different branding applications for batteries.

I began to collect batteries a few years ago when I became interested in print collection. I collected various brands for a few years until some of them began to corrode through the bottom. Unfortunately, due to their inherit flaws, batteries will become a relic of the past and images like these will be less common in the future. I am posting these images here and retiring these batteries because it's becoming a hazard to keep them around.

Personal Logo Work

these are my first attempts at the personal logo. I am going for simple here, nothing complicated. Most of these are set up to be ligatures. I would love to get some feed back on any of these since I like more than one idea and am split on which direction I should keep going in. I could see more than one of these on a card and letterhead.

Blipo Bold what a lovely choice!

Sometimes I feel as if I wouldn't have been so artistically oriented if I hadn't lived in Germany for a while. It makes me sad sometimes that America's culture is business oriented rather than artistically. This video short is part of a documentary in the making. The typeface used to replace the original sign is "Blip-o Bold" which was used in the late 1970's for an electro set album cover. Wow, what regard for art history America has.

TARA DONOVAN

This is very tedious work and it is very easy to tell that much care goes into this work. She is from New York. She spent years of her life dedicated to her work while she waited tables through her undergrad and masters. Her work is interesting and the materials are always something surprising.
