ART + DESIGN + VINTAGE← THE STUDIO WALLSTUDIO NOTES / NO. 01
A collector’s eye.
An artist’s hand.
An eye for the past. A hand in what comes next.
A Cavalier King Charles Spaniel carrying a paintbrush felt like a pretty good place to start. I have a soft spot for Cavaliers, and this one gets to sign the work. A useful member of the team.

THE GUIDING PRINCIPLE
Lasting form.
A little character.
Time leaves its mark.
I wanted the identity to feel at home on paper, packaging, or a studio wall. Clear lettering, warm colors, and a dog with a job. The materials can show their age; the logo needs to stay readable.
01 / THE MARKS
One character. A few expressions.
A complete introduction.
The full illustrated logo for studio signatures, stationery, and moments that call for the whole story.
A familiar companion.
The standalone dog for labels, packaging, merchandise, and small, memorable details.
Quietly distinctive.
The clean serif wordmark for editorial layouts, gallery applications, and a lighter touch.
02 / THE PALETTE
Colors I keep coming back to.
Charcoal, warm paper tones, and a little oxblood. Colors that sit comfortably with the old references and found materials I use.

03 / THE DETAILS
Made to live
on objects.
Artist certificates, correspondence cards, hangtags, packaging, paper goods, and the occasional well-placed dog.
Serif type, simple labels, and the occasional italic. I wanted it to feel familiar, with enough personality to be mine.
Preserve proportions, keep clear space, and use the supplied one-color artwork without adding distress to the mark.
