I had the opportunity to see Dirk Fowler speak last night, about how he approaches a concept of poster design. He’s not only a great designer but a great guy. One of the questions raised last night was about “$” and I love what his response was, “There’s not a lot of money to be made in poster design. You don’t do it to make money, you do it because you love it.”

That’s what it comes down to. I know the garage man makes more money than I do but I just love what I do and can’t see myself doing anything else. Dirk Fowler’s work inspirited me to get better and continue to do what I’m doing.

Here’s one of the piece he presented last night, which my jaw dropped when I saw it (which Lydia can attest to). Very Simple! That’s what I love about it.
