Great article, I knew this from my EFM studies but this article explains it better than I could.

Inspiration

Just to show how NOT a copy my latest picture is of the picture that inspired it, I thought I would post the picture that sparked my idea. It is a book plate by Alfred Liebing, circa 1920. I was tempted to do my own version in the woodcut/etched style and color it, but decided to go with the more painted graphic style I ended up with. I hope you can see how this inspired my second Faerie Ring Press logo idea.

Logo Two

I was inspired by a black and white illustration for the early 1900's to do a different version of my Faerie Ring Press logo. I think it has an interesting feel. "Faerie Ring Press Logo 2", 8 x 9 roughly, Micron marker, Acrylic and watercolor colored pencil. Prints without lettering available. Picture 17.

Updated Logo

My original logo design for Faerie Ring Press was done small and in black and white. It was fine for what it was, but then I did a hand colored version and blew it up larger...it looked good in color but the larger format showed the flaws that did not show in a tiny picture. So now I have updated the logo, not allot of changes but a few small tweaks and hopefully removal of the things that looked bad when enlarged. This will be used as the back of my next book "Faerie Dust".  Micron marker and Acrylic on card stock, 4 inch circle. Picture 16.

BAD Apple

Apple approves iPhone app that "cures" homosexuality (well, one that supports that insane, abusive and evil idea!) If you own an iPhone, contact Apple and tell them you want that app removed! It should be illegal in this country at least, to try and "cure" homosexuality since ALL of the supposed "cures" are torture and phycologically damaging and NEVER work. The authorities on mental health ALL agree it is harmful and wrong, so why can churches and other groups still do it? Boycott Apple!
