Finished Work

I've wrapped up another book project. This one is for Thomas Nelson Publishing in Nashville, TN. Above is the cover art and packaging for the audio book, box set for the new Chris Seay release, "The Gospel According to Lost". Chris uses the popularity of pop culture hits as the basis of gathering correlations between scripture and these popular productions.

One More Thing

I've launched the new site and couldn't be happier, at least for now. Like I mentioned a couple of posts ago, it's quite different from my last site. Let me know what you think, visit mborum.com you can also still visit my old site if you prefer the look of it at meborum.com. I'll be updating both with new work when projects are finalized.

Branding and Identity Development

As mentioned in my last post, I have a new client from Australia. 4GMetals is a scrap metal recycler just outside of Sydney that contacted me about developing a new identity and handle some of their branding needs. The branding is still in the works, however I have just gotten final approval on the mark. Let me know what you think and I'll be back with more news on this and other clients in the near future.

Search Continues

I just finished my new site, as well as some new projects from a new Australian clients. I'm uploading the site as I type and will have updates about the new clients projects as soon as I get the all clear to send them to print.

This site is vastly different from my last, being that it is a totally different layout and much more conservative in appearance than the avant garde look of my last effort. That being said, I am really happy with the results. Hopefully it will garner more responses in my quest for in house employment. Wish me luck.

New Work, New Site.

I've been working on a new site lately. Yeah, I know, the last site was just finished a month or so a go, but I thought maybe the avant-garde style of my current/soon to be previous site was holding me back a bit in my search for a full time in-house art director gig. My soon to be previous site was an experiment in what a very simply coded HTML site could be, not to mention the design was something completely new and as much design as I study, I'd never come across this style or look before. I was and still am very happy with the work but knew not everyone or maybe not even most would get it, but I felt that someone would. Possibly a Boutique Ad Agency, focused on high design, but here I am 2 months later still doing my thing, contract and freelance work. Don't get me wrong, contract and freelance isn't a bad gig, just not necessarily what I'm wanting to do for too much longer.

I truly feel that the best place for me is working in someone else's shop, focusing all of my efforts on the creative, the concept development, the final product. After all, that's what brought me to design. So, stay tuned for the new site in the next couple of days.

Recruiters

Through the various connections I've been able to make over the years in the creative world, I've managed to find myself a creative recruiter. This is certainly a new one for me. I'll let you know how it goes, hopefully great.

It's been a while!

It's been a while since my last update, but I'm back. A lot has been going on over the last couple of months.

To start, I gotten myself engaged to my long time girlfriend Erin. As of now the the plans are still up in the air but I think the tentative date will be mid summer of next year.

I had a couple of great trips out of the Music City, some urban, some suburban and most recently an awesome camping trip to a same island on Norris Lake, where I found out that both of my puppies are swimmers. I know, it surprised me too. Old friends, good times, sorry no pics.

Currently I'm finding myself in a bit of a career shift and luckily I have a friend that has hooked me up with a great recruiter, however if anyone is looking for an art director, I might be your guy. Have a look and let me know what you think. http://www.mborum.com

And lastly for now I guess, I haven't had a ton of time to paint but I have started a new 30 x 40 pen and ink on paper.

Obviously still a work in progress, back soon.
