A design I did back in 2002 for the City of West Sac's 9th Annual Riverbank Music Festival poster . . . came across this today so I thought I'd share it.
City Lights: Going Green and Staying out of the Red
This issue of City Lights will be the last printed issue. In an effort to be more cost effective and eco-friendly, City Lights is going digital and will be renamed "City iLights". Not only are we retiring City Lights - we're retiring me. Effective Sept.1 Dan Harris Draws will become my new gig. Hope to be designing fun stuff when I'm not traveling or riding my bike.
Something I didn't like about the PF poster so I held off going to the printer. Was it too linear? . . . not "Peter Max" enough? . . . was it the colors? I don't know, but my inner voice said "hey self - you're not happy with it". - so I played with it and I like it mo betta now. Maybe I'll take it to the printer, Commerce Printing on Monday.
I take your rough sketch and make it pretty . . . designing and illustrating with Adobe Illustrator since 1988. I have a BFA in Fine Arts from CSU, Sacramento as well as completing studies in Graphic Design through UC Davis. I also illustrate with watercolors and designers guoache.
