Back in mid-June, I was approached through the National Guard to help with a project where the United Services Organization (a.k.a., "The USO") was going to sponsor a concert specifically for the purpose of honoring the service and sacrifice of military families.  The original name for the event was going to be "The Reverse USO Concert."  The idea being that the USO traditionally has only gone out to the troops to entertain them in combat theaters.  Thus the USO was "reversing" its intended audience.  As I was asked to begin working on a logo for The Reverse USO Concert, I thought to my self... "Self, 'Reverse USO' ain't sexy."  So I began thinking of alternatives.

What came immediately to mind was the way in which the civilian population of the U.S. was encouraged to support the war effort during WWII.  There was the European Front, the Pacific Front, and... The Home Front.  So I reached back and borrowed the term "Homefront" and built it into my logo design for the concert.  The people at the USO loved it.

Anyway, I'm posting a lot of my artwork from the USO Homefront Concert as part of updating my portfolio.  Hope you like it.

Hello there. How are you doing? I saw that you did a coat of arms and I was impressed by it. If you like, you could do the coat of arms of the City of Behrends (which actually comprises a part of the city seal but whatever). It will be featured in my story Twilight Falls for your information. Anyway, the coat of arms features a shield that has a silver anchor at the bottom and a golden maltese cross at the top. The background of the shield is black. Behind the shield are two crossed swords and a torch. The supporters are an otter and a bear. Can you do it? You can add additional elements yourself if you feel like it. Remember to tell me when you are done. :)

I'm sorry. The past 6 months have been very hectic for me and I totally missed your message. I hope that you found someone to design your city's coat of arms for you.
