Some of you have asked what I’ve been up to while Adam is at work. I have had no problems filling up my time! I usually spend about half of my day working on projects, including freelance projects, my graphic design portfolio, or learning new techniques for Illustrator and Photoshop. I may even learn PHP, but I am a little intimidated right now, and having way too much fun with Illustrator and Photoshop to start coding.
Usually the second half of the day, I spend downtown or hiking around. I am enjoying being able to spend several hours each day being outside and walking around, especially now that it stopped raining!
I really treasure the luxury of time that I have right now – deciding what to do, having time to learn new skills, and having time to discover Trondheim. It is especially welcome after an extremely busy/stressful final semester of graduate school! Looking back at it now I cannot believe I finished everything I did – two jobs, my master’s project, and designed several publications. Knowing I had this summer in Norway coming up was certainly good motivation to finish everything on time!
I thought I would share one of my freelance projects with you. It is in draft stage, so some tweaking will be required. As you’ll see in the image below, the letter “t” is a bit hard to read, so I will be reworking that. This project is for an upcoming nonprofit, Sustainable Trail Design. Let me know what your favorite logo mockup is!
