Personal Logo (P3, color logo)








PERSONAL LOGO:

My logo is representative of several aspects of who I am. Some of these elements represent my 20 years of active duty service in the military... (3 years in the Navy and 17 years in the Marine Corps). It also has contrast and depth, as does my personality. Some of these elements are right on the surface, and several are more hidden... Much more personal and not intended to be seen by the casual onlooker. When you see my logo, you are seeing who I am... If I couldn't tell you my name or who I am, you would still recognize me when you see my brand!







I consider all 3 versions of my logo to be an official representation of who I am. The top one has more dimensionality to it, and it has a gradient mesh applied to it. The second one uses a linear gradient, while the last one is represented in solid color. My logo does not have an outline... It is bold right to the outer edge!

At first glance, you may see a Blue Nautical Star and Red Target. On another level, you may see a similarity to the graphic shape of the Marine Corps Emblem (the Eagle, Globe, and Anchor). When you let the image draw you in a bit more, you see smooth contoured circles being penetrated by sharp angled triangles... As you reflect on the familiarity of the colors, you may begin to feel patriotic, seeing the colors of our Nation... The specific color of blue and red are taken from the Marine Corps Branding Guide:

A10_Meme - UPDATED!

"MEME" There's nothing like finding just the right Meme to express how you feel. My meme is pretty cliché, but relatable to anyone taking classes in the CASS bldg. It's tucked away in the corner of the University next to the tracks & the river, and far away from all the other comings and goings of the school (including the commuter parking lot). The CASS is so hidden, that you can't even see it when your standing on top (5th floor) of the parking structure. It's also a very cold and dark place where suntans and dreams go to die... Not because you find discouragement there, but because you will never sleep again. I need to learn how to day dream again like I did as a child... And the bonus one... 10 FAVORITE MEMES:

"HAND TAPPED" In April 2016, I traveled to American Samoa as part of the Marine Corps Forces Pacific Band to participate in their Flag Day Ceremony and surrounding events. This annual ceremony attracts quite a bit of attention, leaving no vacancies at any of the hotels on island. Fortunately, we were honored guests and made our reservations well ahead of time. What I had not planned on, was getting a Tattoo. Wilson is an Internationally known Tattoo Artist from American Samoa. I'm pretty sure he has more to his name than just "Wilson", but that's what he calls himself, and that's what everyone knows him as. While I had some "Liberty" on the island, I scheduled a session with the master. It was quite a bit different than other tattoo sessions I've had. Tattoos are a big deal in American Samoa. It's common for children to start getting "inked up" at around age 16. The culture is quite a bit different there, than that o...
