Sketch Book Drawings

This is stuff I create when I sit with a pen and color pencils. 

Etsy Store

I finally did it! I have created an Etsy store. I have been visiting Etsy for the past couple of years to see what is going on in the arts and crafts world. As a graphic designer, I believe that the crafting world is an interesting and important place to be connected to. Crafters are fearless artist who create without permission. The guts to create a product and put it out there in the world and hope it will be received well is admirable to say the least.

So.. deep breath... I have decided to take on creating and crafting as a way to stay in touch with my design skills, the consumer market at large and with my own desires to delight and satisfy folks with my artistic talent. I have created an Etsy Store!! check me out at marciemccabe.etsy.com.

I hope to develop my niche in this amazing community of artists!

Thanks!

Tenderfoot Album Package Design

Tenderfoot is a moniker for my dearest friend Adam Boehmer. Over this past summer Adam toured Germany and Denmark as Tenderfoot. The tour demand some accessories such as this album package. If you are curious to music behind the design then please check out Tenderfoot's bandcamp site and sample some of his offerings.

Business Card Design

This is a really fun business card design for a Swing Dance Instructor and dear friend Jo Ann Coker. Full color, front and back di-cut 2.5 inch diameter. This design was not as innovative for me because Jo Ann has already branded her look --check out her website for Camp Balboa here in Seattle-- I was challenged with the task of organizing her look and information on a record shape business card.

Tender Foot Music

Original Print taken from a camping book from the 70's.

Tenderfoot is a one man wonder musical creation from my dear friend Adam Boehmer. Adam is a long time accomplished Poet and Lindyhopper/Solo Jazz Dancer. His music reflects his ability to hear interesting parts in music and his ability to create abstractions in language with his poetry. His recent accomplishments in poetry and dance include Poems of Fog reading in San Francisco, Ca and instructor and featured on front page of Midwest Lindyfest in St Paul, Mn.

Please seek Adam Boehmer out as an artist. He is amazing!!

Sitka & Spruce

I came across this website looking for Farm to Table restaurants in Seattle. I was blown away by the design of this site because I have a particular interest in vintage fruit and vegetable illustrations. I thought this web design was quite special and really hit spot on with the idea of what they are going for.

It is not clear who designed the site (at least i am not seeing it right away) but the Friends section of the site lists resources and is worth visiting for the pure pleasure of getting lost in all the connections. LOVE IT!
