Spring Awakening 04.01.09

It's been awhile since I have been here and I am sincerely sorry for not keeping you in the loop! However, on April 1, 2009 it's no April Fools Joke I am rolling out an entirely new site complete with samples of my work, new blog post and a Twitter link to track my every creative move. So check back very soon to see the progress.
I just know you're going to enjoy the new site.

Creatively Yours,

Weather So Beautiful, It Is Inspiring.

This weekend has been so beautiful. My sister is staying with me for a short time before she deploys, again, for Iraq. I really enjoyed every moment just hanging out with her. We didn't really do much, but the weather just seemed to support our mode and general relaxation. It was like a beautiful background for this perfect script-like weekend. I feel more inspired then I have in weeks. I hope this mode continues. Okay, hope this post wasn't too corny. It's just the God's honest truth. The weather was fantastic and I really enjoyed just doing nothing with my sis. Here's to inspiration in whatever form it may come. May you find yours.

Holiday Wall Art!

Here is what I did in the front of the house. I wanted to created an "Enchanted Wonderland." The inspiration was the animated "Frosty The Snowman" series. I used to love watch that cartoon as a child. To me, Christmas is always about a return to childhood and innocence. I hope I was able to capture a little of that in my holiday decorating. Any feedback is appreciated!

Hold everything, I'm bring Christmas back!

I know everyone has been on pins and needles, but I am finally posted my holiday goodies. Report back everyday this week for fresh photos and detailed accounts. Hope you enjoy and it was worth the wait.

Barney's has gone green!

Wow! Sorry it has been awhile. I hope you're not still waiting for my holiday decor post...I promise to put something up before the 25th. Instead, today I thought I'd take the time to tell you about one of my favorite things. Like Oprah, I too have some new things that have come into my life and I feel the need to share them with you. However, just to warn you, there's no free swag with my version and it's really just one thing. As you may or may not know, I love designer clothing. It's really the art aspect and desire to have my own label one day that seals that deal. Not to mention, the amazing retail stores, fabulous shopping bags, extra unhelpful sales people and the hot security guards in Gucci suits that really justify spending an outrageous amount of cash for something I probably didn't need in the first place. I just love it! Well, here in Central Texas, Target is about as upscale as it gets. So I have turned to the world wide web, aka my highway to the real world, to help me out this holiday season. ***HERE COMES THE REVEAL***
Ladies and Gentledudes, I give you my favorite thing: Barney's New York has gone Green for the Holidays!
MAKE ME GREEN and take me to BARNEY'S!
On their site they have these fabulous little webisodes about fashion and going green. They're fantastic and so much fun. Plus, anything about going green just makes me feel good. I can't wait 'til Wal*Mart goes green. (Insert sinister laugh here!) So, check it out and let me know what you think. Tomorrow, I'll have another fantastic, high fashion holiday have to, just for you.
Merryly Yours, Randy.

White Diamonds are Forever!

Good Morning. What a great week it has been. I am working on a billboard design this morning and watching the Today Show. I have my coffee in hand and I am feeling good about completing two different versions for my client to see. Any how, like I said, I have the television on the Today Show and during the last commercial break they aired a commercial for White Diamonds. Lordy, Lordy! If this fragrance really pulls that much in revenue during each holiday season, is it possible that they could shoot a new campaign? I mean, I feel like I'm watching an extremely bad, music video, frosted clip from "Indiana Jones." Plus, Elizabeth Taylor is 20 years older now and really doesn't look like that. This poses the question, is it false advertisement or has it become just an unintentional holiday classic that we should enjoy like Grinch or Charlie Brown? At any rate, it struck my attention enough to blog about it. I do remember purchasing it in the early '90's for my mom one Christmas. Never again!! Okay, back to work. Have a wonderful Friday!
