introducing DED

Hello everyone, today marks the beginning of February a cold, windy month with no hope of spring and my birthday is a day or so away. i will be 27. This has always been some magical age for me so now that i'm finally there i don't really know how to feel...disappointed i guess. Nothing to show for it, no respect , no love, no website, no money, no (real) job, no ANYTHING!

I've had a new ocmputer for a month and barley lifted a finger. My drafting table and desk are covered with junk (not that that's new) and despite loving where i am living right now i've settled into a lazy and not terribly creatively productive routine.

In attempts to correct this i am starting DESIGN EVERY DAY or DED (dead) for short. Because if i don't do this i may as well be dead.

DEDicon1

For the entire month of February I will design, draw, craft or create something to completion everyday. I'm leaving the spectrum wide open for myself so i can try and choose interesting topics that i can get done quickly, because i also have a life to live, jobs to search for and a laundry list of ongoing creative projects that cannot be done in a day.
This will keep me on my toes, make me organize my tiny space even more and try and get this blog back on track.

Scanner permitting i will post each project here at the end of each day. For me the day ends when I go to sleep so count on a lot of 2 am posts. If I go away on weekends or somehow cannot post a picture the night of (let's face it, my birthday IS coming up) I will post double/triple the next day...so by the end of this month i will have at least 28 things...HOORAY!

For today i made the first of many logos for DED, it's aqua and ochre yellow...my favs. As an extra I also complete a pinup. here ya go internet, see you tomorrow...
