Bumper Sticker Update #2

I am so happy to have four more bumper stickers to share with the world. It feels great to find enough people interested in having them so that I have an excuse to continue designing new ones. Additionally, though I have no idea if they have any impact on anyone that sees them, it feels like progress to know that thousands of people will see my work, even if they have no idea who created it.

This one, the 13th in the series, was inspired by a friend who said she would want one if I made something with circles and lines.

When I finished #14, I was a little worried about how people would feel about triangles. I never know how people will react to a new design and I'm always pleasantly surprised when they like them enough to put them on their cars.

The 15th was a radical design departure. With it, I decided to play with amorphous, ambiguous shapes. It has been interesting hearing what people see in a design of which I didn't have any preconceived intention other than to create an interesting shape. I found that It is a bit of a Rorschach test. I love how abstract art allows the viewer to create along the artist. I like how it doesn't tell you what to think, or see, which is the purpose of this whole project.

With the most recent of the series I continued to explore organic designs and I am continuing to find that people see things I never thought of, nor intended. Although I had only ordered ten of them, the company that makes them for me gifted me another ten so this time it is an edition of twenty.

Because I enjoy designing these so much, and I can't design a new one until I've distributed the latest; and because I love knowing people are seeing my work (even if it is anonymous) I'm still giving them away to anyone in the US who wants one (your first is free but I charge $10 for if someone wants a second). Just email me your address and you'll find one in the mail in a few days.

New Facebook Page

I recently created an artist Facebook page. I'll post my latest work and news there first so I hope you'll considering "Like"-ing it to get the most up to date information about my happenings.
