Dive Deeper

Every few months I take down my inspiration board that hangs over my computer and gather new food for thought. My board usually contains imagery, quotes from other people, drawings on napkins, and mantras that have been running around in my head. Sometimes I take these mantras and visually make them come to life, like the above card I did this morning.

The “Dive Deeper” mantra has been on my mind a lot. For me, it tells me to push further with my work, even when I think I might be done. Yeah I know, it’s a simple idea but very profound.

So I say this to you, whatever it is that you do, wherever it is that you go, or how you spend your moments…remember to dive a little deeper, you never know what you are going to find.

If you would like to make your own mantra using these types of letters, check out Spell with flickr, by clicking here.

Calie, we are clearly going on some parallel path in our heads :) I've just posted a design with type in it. But I just LOVED your 'Dive Deeper' Its so kickass :)! I'm glad u are doing graphic design - its clear how much you love it. I'm sorry I've not been comiing over too often these days- there's just been too much going on at my end. Just about managing to keep my head up & afloat. But this will stop soon & I will be back. Your posts are looking very interesitng I will soon have the time to give them the attention they deserve.
