“Visual storytelling utilizes both language and art to pass on the esse...” — Debbie Millman Quote

Visual storytelling utilizes both language and art to pass on the essence of who we are.

We create constructs to understand ourselves, the way we look, how we feel, what we believe - and we telegraph that 'branding' to the world.

I often say that 'Design Matters' began in February 2005 with an idea and a telephone line.

Many brands have lost their way in the process of evolving from a small company to a much bigger corporation.

My most memorable design-related encounter was also one of my most life-changing. I met Joyce Rutter Kaye, 'Print''s editor-in-chief from 1998-2008. It was at 6 A.M. on a cross-country flight from New York to Vancouver for the 2003 National AIGA conference.

I never know what I'm going to put on the canvas. The canvas paints itself. I'm just the middleman.

Logic: The art of thinking and reasoning in strict accordance with the limitations and incapacities of the human misunderstanding.

All art is at once surface and symbol. Those who go beneath the surface do so at their peril. Those who read the symbol do so at their peril. It is the spectator, and not life, that art really mirrors. Diversity of opinion about a work of art shows that the work is new, complex and vital.

The task of art today is to bring chaos into order.

Politicians are masters of the art of deception.
