The Word It for June is “Drought“. I know this illustration is pretty bleak, but droughts are bleak. Whether it’s physical, financial, or spiritual, droughts are not much fun. Death may not be the ultimate result of a drought, but it can sure feel like it when you’re going through one. Droughts are stark reminders of our frailty and the dependency we all have on external things to keep us alive. Aseity (self-existence) is an attribute only God Himself possesses and a drought is a powerful reminder of that reality. For in Him we live and move and have our being. -Acts 17:28

The Word It for April is “flow”. Here’s how Word It describes itself in a nutshell:

Word it is your opportunity to express in any manner you wish and with as many (or little) other graphic elements as you need, what best describes each monthly word.

I enjoy participating every month because  I view each “Word It” as a problem to be solved . I try to come up with the best solution I can and I also like seeing how other designers try to solve the same problem.

I had considered starting a blog for several years now and was kicking around the idea of launching it on January 1, 2009 as a sort of New Year’s resolution. I’m running a bit late.  I hope to use this blog as an opportunity to share some of my design-related projects, processes, and insights. The “L8″ graphic above is my January Word It submission. Better late than never.
