New artist site: devinemodernart.com.
Between our art talks, and our college conversations (we both have high school juniors), artist Catherine Devine was a dream to work with.
Oh, and her art's pretty fab, too. Go to her new site, if you don't believe me (you should go there even if you do believe me)!

Can I get a Woot! Woot!
Just the other day, I thought to myself, hmmmm... it's early September, the American Graphic Design Awards should be coming out soon...
Well, cut to today, and the bulky white envelope in my mailbox...
(drumroll, please!)
I am very happy to announce that I was the recipient of 4 awards! I don't believe I've shared these on the blog yet (and actually, I wanted to save the Glow logo until the packaging printed--because I'm so WAY excited about it!--but I'm even more excited about winning the awards). Ladies and gentlemen, I present:
art + interiors, monthly favorites:
This is the monthly "e-newsletter" (for lack of better term) from my pal Cyndy. Each month, she sends out an email featuring a couple of her artists, and a quote. It's so simple, yet so graphically powerful. I enjoy sitting down with Cyndy each month as we select artwork (and a quote) for Favorites (and, of course, dish the dirt!).
Glow Gluten Free, logo:
My pal Jill was so much fun to work with. She has such a passion for her product (delicious gluten-free cookies--you'd think that was an oxymoron or something, but so not the case with her cookies). I'm even more excited to feature the packaging, once it prints!
Lush Floral Designs, website:
Zoe's flower arrangements are so breathtaking, it wasn't hard to design her site at all! You can see the site in it's entirety, here.
The Portrait House, pro bono website:
K, so Justin and Mary keep giving me these awesome projects, and I keep winning awards for them. Seriously, this is the third site of theirs that's won (so what's on tap for this year, guys? :) All kidding aside, I was so happy to help out and design the site for this charity they've started, benefitting Habitat for Humanity. Check out the site here, or the blog here.
And as Mary and Justin would say, PHantastic!

Weekly wrap up
It's been ever so busy here at traciedesigns HQ, so let's get down to business:
--Got some (really positive--yipee!) feedback from Christy Murray re: her logo. Worked on some minor round 2 some revisions.
--Worked on a site design for my pal Josh.
--Designed some posters for One Kid.
--Mentally prepared myself for laying out the One Kid catalog (see weekly wrap up next week).
--Worked on some changes for the Hospital for Special Surgery Activity Guide.
--Had a pretty cool meeting with a potential new client: a photographer who is switching careers and becoming a stylist.
--Worked on finishing Marcy's American Indian mouseovers (I am now a walking encyclopedia on most things Native American. No, really).
--Worked on site designs for Greenwich Dance Studio.
--I spent a ridiculous amount of time on Facebook, and found 11 or so friends.
--But most importantly, I spent the equivalent of college tuition--private college, mind you--at Starbucks this week. Oh, and by the by, Ashlee has discovered the Frappaccino. So basically I'll be setting up some kind of Paypal donation site, because at the rate we're going, it won't be my shoe habit that brings us down--it'll be $4.00 glorified milkshakes.
This weekend, I've got work plans. Depending on how much I get done, Mattio and I may head on down to Yankee Stadium on Sunday for a date (long overdue!), hopefully to watch the Yanks win! Every time I go to the stadium this year--and I've been fortunate enough to go to several games--I think it's my last time, and I get a little verklempt leaving. That said, I just realized that it will be neither shoes nor coffee does us in, it will be mine and Mattio's quest to purchase some kind of stadium memorabilia (I'd take bleacher seats... ya know, if I had to).
Hope you enjoy your weekend!

Weekly wrap up
Bonjour, friends! This week was a busy busy week for me--not only work-wise, but personally, too: my middle child Madeline is celebrating her 5th birthday. Today was her "friend" party; about 6 of her preschool buds met us for a couple hours of sun and surf (if you can call it that in Fairfield) at the beach. The weather was perfect, the kids were happy, and at the end of those 2 hours, a good time was had by all. Tomorrow, her real birthday, we'll celebrate with family.
As I sit here and listen to her play in the next room with her brand new Polly Pockets, I can't believe that she's going to be five. Starting kindergarten five. "Mom, you don't need to hold my hand anymore" five. "I can do this all by myself!" five. My goodness, how the time flies.
As stated above, work was also busy. This week was chock full of fun stuff, like:
--finalizing and sending logo designs to Christy Murray (it was so hard on my end narrowing down which ones to present! I had so much fun with this project!)
--scanning and retouching some images for Marcy
--researching and beginning to put together designs for the Greenwich Dance Studio website
--beginning development on the HB Home website
--conference calling with a couple of different clients
--bracing myself for the One Kid onslaught next week: photography is just about done for the catalog and posters, so that'll definitely keep me busy!
This weekend, as I stated above, I'll be busy celebrating on Saturday. On Sunday, I will--as usual--be working. Enjoy the weekend, and don't forget to use sunblock!
