power branding

I usually use CorelDraw when developing logos. This software enables me to manipulate text easily. This winged logo for Rodriguez Auto Sales was rendered entirely in CorelDraw then transported into PhotoShop to colorize. When working on logos - I first work with black and white imagery to make sure the branding is strong as a one color design.

Tribute for Paul

Early 2006, I was asked by Gene Crume of Midland Lutheran College to submit a tribute cartoon piece for Paul Norris, creator of the Golden Age comic classing Aquaman. I was deeply honored to say the least. Paul also hand his hand in such classic comics as Secret Agent X - Flash Gordon - Jungle Jim - Brick Bradford - Magnus & Tarzan. I received a letter from Mr. Norris which reads as follows:

Dear David:

This is about two months late, but I want to thank you for the art in which Submariner is set straight. Nice touch for Aquaman. I like your technique. It will find a permanent place on the wall in my den. The den used to be my studio before I got too old to draw cartoons or run out and play golf.

The tribute to me by Midland was a surprise and it made an old man feel happy. I thank you for being part of it.

Best wishes,
Paul Norris

Paul Leroy Norris April 26, 1914 - November 5, 2007

I am still today so deeply honored to have been asked to have played part in that tribute.
