Yea, I know, YESTERDAY was flag day. But our post did not post. So we'll post it today. Even if your company doesn't have a physical flag, identity design follows the same kinds of thinking. A FLAG is representative of the whole story- like your logo. So this is the Ultimate Identity Design: the Flag. We are glad for the stars and stripes and all that for which it stands, one Nation, under God, indivisible, with Liberty and Justice for all. While we are not a perfect nation, I am thankful to God for the opportunities and the privileges we enjoy. We might get weary of bipartisan bickering, but keep in mind, in other lands, you cannot bicker at all!!! The only land your bickering gets you, is to land you in jail--or WORSE. So thank God it's not illegal to disagree, to share your thoughts about the 'common good', or present another perspective. Our Founders believed in Freedom, and that we need to decide what that is together. ALL of us is better than SOME of us, and it takes us all to decide the common good for everyone, (not just what is good for me). Hallelujah for 'e pluribus unum'. (Out of many, One.) May her colors ever wave over the purple mountain majesty and the amber waves of grain.

We are so privileged to be able to visit the Iowa League of Heroes Headquarters, (after being directed to the undisclosed location!) The League is just about ready to receive visitors, and we are so excited about all the plans for all the good work that will be done there!!! With the future this bright, we're gonna have to wear shades. Stay tuned, and be prepared to be totally amazed!

StickMan has always been ready for Soccer. Futbol. Whatever you want to call it. He used to be thinner, so playing the game was easier. But WATCHING the game can provide plenty of cardio if you yell loud enough. And you can coach from the sofa. (SHOOT! SHOOT! Awwww! Arrrrgh! Yessss! GOOOOOAL! ) Whatever it takes! And whoever wins, StickMan hopes you enjoy the games and wishes you a great weekend! (Your team will always win. Then we just turn off the Playstation.)

What is a Brand? It is the entire customer experience with your company. It's not your icon, however much we would wish it could be so powerful. However, your graphics can help you 'own' your message. Are your business graphics saying everything you need them to say? If trust is an important ingredient in your sales process, consistency will help you support that message. Want to look more credible? Established? These things can be expressed with graphic design. We can help you express yourself. Give us a call.

Proll'y not possible to do graphic design in Iowa and NOT use a cow now and then. Not so long ago, our business sales paralleled the markets for pork bellies. Coincidence? I think not. The economy here is Ag dependent. When the farmers in Iowa are happy? So are the entrepreneurs.

It's the Birthday of Maurice Sendak, that unforgettable illustrator and author of children's books. He wanted to help children deal with scary things. He is still relevant to us today, because WE ADULTS are still dealing with scary things.

Being an entrepreneur is SCARY. But––creating anything of value involves RISK. Entrepreneurs must be very, very BRAVE and take risks where other people do not.

Maurice loved Herman Melville. Here's what Maurice said on the risk of CREATING:

"Herman Melville said that artists have to take a dive & either you hit your head on a rock & you split your skull & you die. . . OR that blow to the head is so inspiring that you come back & do the best work that you ever did. But you have to take the dive, and you do not know what the results will be."

June 10th! Ballpoint Pen Day! Writing (and drawing) by hand is good for the brain and good for the soul. To celebrate the day, you could gift a ballpoint & a stack of good copy paper to your three favorite people, of any age.
