We created the logo, save the date, invitations, programs, name tags, promotional video and powerpoint presentation that played live during the event. It was a really fun project and I'm glad I am finally able to share all the work we did! <br />

I've been incredibly busy since I posted last including getting a new job, traveling abroad and a summer full of back to back weddings. (It's kind of amazing how I can sum up the past 9 months of my life in just one sentence...)<br />
<br />
I plan to update more frequently now that some of the projects I've been working on are now completed and are up for sharing with the world. And now that wedding season is officially over and before long I'll no longer want to be outside.<br />
<br />
But until then, I have a few sketches that I've done recently. I realized that I have little to no animal drawings in my book (how did that happen?) So I think it's high time I've added some!<br />
<br />
Until next time, here are some pictures.<br />

I've been working loads lately (which helps explain why my posts have been so few and far between...) But I do have something I can share. Last month I had the fun task of coming up with a flight card and poster for the <a href="https://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Village-Pub/95031666637" target="_blank">Pub.</a> <br />

The downside is keeping quiet until the project is over...<br />
<br />
So it gives me great pleasure to finally be able to share one of the amazing projects I spent months working on! I was contacted to come up with the identity for a new restaurant that just opened in Blaine, MN: <a href="http://bluzysroadside.com/" target="_blank">Bluzy's Roadside. </a><br />
<br />
The owner of Bluzy's owns several other restaurants, and wanted this one to be different. A pared down menu (only 26 items) that are all served in baskets on trays, like an old school diner. The restaurant itself was going to be in a converted gas station, so he wanted to have a very rustic / retro feel to not only the interior, but to the logo and menu as well.<br />
<br />
There were many rounds of revisions on the logo design (as I'm sure you can imagine.) We came up with 2 final versions - one of which is an homage to the 40ft sign outside on the road.<br />
<br />

The menu was fun to design, and actually didn't take too long to come up with something he loved. The revisions that we needed really came from changing prices / names of the items, etc., not on the design itself. </div>

We also had the idea of including a pin-up character to be a kind of 'mascot' for Bluzy's. The character was never finished, but here are some of the sketches that I came up with for the idea. </div>

Now that the project is done and the restaurant is open, I got to enjoy the best part of my job; eating the food for the menu I designed! :D I had the Ahi tuna ceviche tacos, and Ryan had the tuna melt. Both were TO DIE FOR. (Drool!) Just thinking about it makes my mouth water for more. </div>

A Wedding Celebration For the 7 of you who actually read this blog, I'm sure you already know by now that I recently got married to my oh-so-wonderful, <a href="http://rmhanson.com/" target="_blank">"monster-loving fiance"</a> that I always refer to in my artist bio. I never really wanted to post anything about the wedding planning process on here because the internet is already inundated with wedding sites, I figured there are far better resources if you're looking for advice. (One of my favorite's is <a href="http://offbeatbride.com/" target="_blank">Off Beat Bride</a>)<br />
<br />
However, I would like to post some of the things I designed for our big day - and maybe I'll throw a photo in or two from our AMAZING photographer, <a href="http://www.kngsommers.com/" target="_blank">Kate Sommers </a><br />
<br />
Our wedding was fantastic and very D.I.Y. (Great for saving that sweet cash money, but not so good for one's stress level.) All I can say is thank the gods for our wonderful family and friends for all of their help!<br />
<br />
Ryan and I collaborated to design our 'Save the Date,' which turned out exactly like we wanted and helped set the theme of the black and white chalkboard / banners that we used throughout the wedding. <br />

<br />
For many reasons, I've decided to keep my last name. (I'm Karen O, what can I say?) Since we knew that going into our wedding, I came up with an identity of sorts for all of our design collateral.<br />

After our ceremony, we left to go to a near by park to take photos before we lost all of the light. I knew that we were going to be gone at least an hour, so we planned to have things to do for our guests. Obviously, eating and drinking are a must at any party - but we didn't have the budget for a traditional catered dinner service. So instead, we decided to have a food truck. We booked <a href="http://www.eatwsk.com/" target="_blank">World Street Kitchen</a> for the big day and everyone loved it! I had a lot of people coming up to tell me they thought having a food truck was a brilliant idea.<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
We also came up with a mingling "BingOH!" game for our guests to play, and as a way for both sides of the family to break the ice. I got the idea from Off Beat Bride, and just designed the cards to fit with our theme.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFunHqLWuOyrdRZ79b2VK1vb1K15WToQUHuFruVsrKt2e23kwSlWzvH64jaxGRFkpOdYM-IeiRMrGl-351WUHSGG31hw8FI4rn0huyAJUzRPd03-ADyWnwzsAMQJnmA5ceRewSKcgecw5Y/s1600/OH_Bingo-1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFunHqLWuOyrdRZ79b2VK1vb1K15WToQUHuFruVsrKt2e23kwSlWzvH64jaxGRFkpOdYM-IeiRMrGl-351WUHSGG31hw8FI4rn0huyAJUzRPd03-ADyWnwzsAMQJnmA5ceRewSKcgecw5Y/s400/OH_Bingo-1.jpg" width="310" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
I had 10 different cards with categories like: Is over 6 feet tall (All of the Hanson family are giants!) Went to high school with the groom, is wearing blue shoes, is a freelancer.. stuff that I knew pertained to our guests. I think people really enjoyed playing - and having a free drink as incentive really helped.<br />
<br />
Well, there you have it. Those are just a few of the things we put together ourselves. We also made all of our flower arrangements - thank you Minneapolis Farmer's Market and Trader Joe's.. had friends bake desserts for us, my unbelievably talented mother made my dress, and we set up the wedding space with the help of our amazing bridal party.<br />
<br />
I know I said I didn't want to post about wedding planning, but I will leave you with one piece of advice. A wedding isn't just about the bride (Gasp!) It's about two people bringing all of their loved ones together in celebration of the love they have for each other. It's about community. And if I learned anything from trying to do my wedding on my own, is that it takes a community to pull it off!<br />

<br />
Both the show and the performance were fantastic - but naturally I wouldn't say anything else about the shows CO Ex put on.<br />

I stopped by the ol' MCAD and discovered that their senior shows are up. Unfortunately, I couldn't stay long, so I only saw a few of the exhibits that are displayed on the main floor.<br />
<br />
I did find 3 illustrator's works that I really enjoyed and wanted to share.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.kelseykingillustration.com/" target="_blank">Kelsey King</a><br />
had a wonderful 12 month calendar of Women and Wolves. I love the juxtaposition between the whimscal nature of women and motion and the fierce looks in their eyes. Very beautifully done. <br />

had a lovely display on of feminane portraits painted both traditionally and digitally. Sadly, I didn't document her display, and I see that the final product not quite up yet on her blog - but just trust me. It is lovely.<br />
Here are some of the pieces from her senior show (from the artist's website)<br />

Had a book with some gruesome, yet colorful and playful illustrations. I love the organic shape his illustrations posses. There's a lot going on without being overly complicated or filling every inch of the page. Sometimes less is more, and I think Mr. Queripel has nailed it. <br />

I recently was asked to participate in Red Bird Chapbook's <a href="http://www.redbirdchapbooks.com/the-broadside-project.html" target="_blank">Broadside Project</a>, which connects artists and writers in a blind collaboration to produce a monthly broadside/poster that is displayed at local Twin Cities gathering spots. <br />
<br />
"This is for you"<br />
<br />
Cool girl in stovepipe jeans<br />
lighting a smoke at the bus stop,<br />
your back to me,<br />
me remembering<br />
a morning, hot like this,<br />
rising in the dark,<br />
leaving early for work, going<br />
to a job I tried not to hate<br />
after dreaming for the first time ever<br />
in sad-sack black<br />
and white, up so early<br />
I caught the grass unawares,<br />
in the act, the lascivious<br />
blades beneath the evergreen boughs<br />
saying to hell with it, keeping on, spawning<br />
weeds regardless of my presence.<br />
It wasn’t a storybook dawn.<br />
It was rawer than that. More like<br />
a caterpillar turning monarch,<br />
cesarean-cutting<br />
the body of a chrysalis,<br />
birthing perfect orange, perfect green.<br />
I bore witness to it all. I was not<br />
the me I had hoped to be.<br />
“Before ripe turns to rot,” I said, I say,<br />
“open your mouth. Swallow yourself.”<br />
-Matt Mauch <br />

She wanted something whimsical ad illustrated including their adorable dog, the location of the wedding, a map, flowers, wreathes and ribbons. <br />
<br />
It was a fun project to work on and I can't wait for their wedding this spring!<br />
