Logo work honored in iheartlogos Season Two.

I am honored today to receive word that we will have work in the upcoming volume of iheartlogos Season Two. The iheartlogos.com competition model is unique in the fact that the work is judged not by a group of select designers sequestered in a room, but by your own competitors. You are the judge. And so is everyone else.

I have a lot of respect for the work submitted this season and am honored to be included in Season Two's offering. The inaugural book was certainly a nice beginning to a series with great potential, and I'm looking forward to seeing in person in all its glory.

Congratulations to the other designers and firms on their selected work. Cheers.

Logo work appearing in the digital-only Trademarks USA.

Just received word today that 13 of my recent logo designs will be appearing in the upcoming 2011 publication of Trademarks USA, by David E. Carter. This is especially exciting because the new volume will be published exclusively online through Amazon, Google Editions and Apple’s iBookstore.

This means that instead of a standard hard or softcover edition, they will only be viewable digitally. I am very interested in how this works out. The iPad, Kindle, Nook and the many other soon to be released eBook readers have really changed the publishing world and how we view our content. Apparently, Amazon states that for every 100 softcover books sold, 115 Kindle versions are sold as well. We shall see.

In any case, I am honored to have my work included in this latest edition from David E. Carter. For the last 15 years, his books have dominated the best-seller lists for the category of graphic design and advertising. His compilations of outstanding creative work are among the industry standard.

Logo work honored in the upcoming LogoLounge Master Library-Shapes and Symbols.

I just received notification today that six of my logos will appear in the upcoming 2011 release of LogoLounge Master Library Vol. 3, Shapes and Symbols

Of course, I am very honored to have more of my work included in this very prestigious logo design series. I also have work appearing in the two previous releases of the Master Library, Volume 1, Initials and Crests and Volume 2, Animals and Mythology, as well as several of the other LogoLounge titles. You can check out some of the other LogoLounge books by Bill Gardner and Catharine Fishel (Rockport Publishers, USA, TBD) on Amazon.com.
