My Daily Six

In 2012, I challenged myself to create something new every day. The parameters? Use six words. As the year progressed, I ended up breaking the 6-word rule but the main point was to explore imagery, investigate form and texture, and, of course, play with type. You'll see a range of work. Much of it was influenced by what took place that day, everything from the weather to politics. Some of the results were stunning, some not so much. But that's what the creative process is all about.

About Me

My photo
Leslie Haines
I've been a graphic designer for almost 30 years, owning my own business for 15 of them. I fell into education on the college level and it has been my passion for the last 12 years. I am a type geek who is a big fan of the software LetterMPress. Humor in advertising fascinates and excites me...when it's done well. Smart copy that speaks directly to me, now that's art. Helvetica, yes. Hobo, never. I support AIGA and AAF. I'm trying to like Greek yogurt. My favorite color is orange (thanks, Blogger).
