Keep Going Sketchbook
Have you ever seen an artist’s sketchbook? It can be messy, but fun to figure out what makes the artist tick.
Here, let met share you a glimpse in my notes and doodling:
Notes
Taking notes from scripture or sermons:
Making notes to understand user experience:
Capturing elaborate points during a conference:
These days, not everything happens in the sketchbook, but thoughts and ideas bleed out onto sticky notes and digital tablets. Everything is everywhere. What will bring everything together? How will I make sense of this mess?
Thinking Out Loud
As an experience designer, I’m leaning heavily on my ability to think out loud. That means getting ideas out into the open, no longer closed up in notebooks or hidden away in bins. Ideas need to be socialized and considered, hunches tested, and ideal concepts fleshed out.
As an artist, I want to make the invisible visible – uncovering, discovering, and going after the creative work hidden within my own being. Then, helping others to evolve their ideas into decent storytelling that can move others, change mindsets, and help everyone adapt to the truth.
As a father, I want to see children grow, expanding beyond expectations, avoiding the enemy of their souls. Finding actual joy and identity.
A purpose does not just happen, it is cultivated.
– Bryant McGill

What will be in the newsletter?
Page by page, update by update, day by day… this will answer itself. I don’t exactly know, but have a hunch. It would be awesome if you want to come along.
I’m going to figure out how to keep drawing, continue connecting dots, and enjoying the journey. The purpose will be found in cultivating the walk. The journey forward is worthwhile… together.
