A Birthday Treat

My birthday card to Don this year.
No, it's not my birthday.  However, a couple of days ago it was the birthday of a good friend of mine, Don Carson.
He and his family had made the trip down to Disneyland, and unfortunately for them, had just missed out on the openings of the new attractions, Star Tours and The Little Mermaid.  To try and cheer Don up and to wish him a happy birthday at the same time, I sent him a special birthday card.
Very kindly, Don published this to his blog to tell the story and also responded with his own sketch- as designers sometimes do!
I always love exchanging sketches with Don, he has such a wonderful and effortless style that communicates an idea in less than an instant.  Sometimes after hearing a story from one another, we sometimes look to highlight a moment visually and sometimes it starts a rally of sketches that keep the story going and expanding and it's always fun!

So take a look at the sketches over on Don's blog and I also urge you to check in and read what he has to say it's always fascinating.

Until next time.
