The Phoenix rises!
Welcome to the completely redesigned, redeveloped, and renewed Firewind Productions! I'm still in the process of moving all of my old blog posts over from the old site and getting everything sorted, catagorized and tagged. In the meantime, please excuse my dust, if you would, and take a look around.

I'm accepting commissioned illustrative work for just about any application, from business illustrations and charts to posters, paintings and other fine art.Contact me with a description of your project
While I've dabbled with all kinds of media from oils to acrylics, I love creating in Illustrator or Photoshop—everything from focused black and white illustrations to photo-realistic vectored renderings. I specialize in a technique called "vector painting" which allows me to create artworks that can be sized for any application without losing quality.
Contact me with a description of your project and I'll be happy to give you an estimate!
NOTE: Prices shown include design/illustration only and do not include printing.
Typography is the delicate art of balancing letterforms in an artistic style to promote a specific aesthetic. Good typography has the ability to connect powerfully with audiences on an almost subconscious level; delivering both the definitive meaning of the text and a connotative emotional reaction.
I'll admit that I'm a typography nut. I'm constantly examining typefaces and logotypes, determining what works and what doesn't. I've studied the reactions that people have to various typographic mores and clichés. I follow the latest typographic blogs and am always playing with new forms and reworking old ones.
Choose your budget and tell me about your project.
Add me to your team! I have over 25 years experience in design, marketing, search engine optimization, computer software training, media analysis, audio and media production, and big ideas. I'm currently offering both personal one-on-one and class-oriented consulting, training, and teaching sessions on a variety of subjects.
Classes require a minimum of 3 students and can be held at your place of business or several other locations around the Lewis-Clark Valley. Pre-registration/pre-payment and scheduling is required. Please contact us with any questions!
Copywriting is the art and science of choosing the best possible words for a particular situation. In that respect, it is very similar to poetry: your best words, in their best order. I've been writing persuasive literature, poetry, songs, essays, and marketing copy for most of my life.
I have a very strong belief in the harmony of words. As a musician and songwriter, I know all about harmony. When you get a musical chord just right, you know it. It resonates and shimmers and has the power to evoke emotions, provoke thought, and even incite change. A chord can be tonal or it can be dissonant—and in some situations, it can be both at the same time.
In the same way, words can resonate with the reader or they can be uncomfortably dissonant. Just as people believe their own ears before they believe other people's words about what music is supposed to be and sound like, readers believe their own eyes first and formost. Readers trust their own instincts when they read marketing copy, and they can smell a sales pitch a mile away.
What does your website, brochure, business card, television or radio spot say about you? Is there dissonance between the message that you are desperately trying to convey and the message that your readers actually take with them? Are you communicating quality on the one hand and an indifferent attitude toward detail on the other? Do your messages foster trust?
Give me a call today at 208-298-9083 and I would love to work with you to ensure that your copy will perform in the way that you intend. As always, I have special rates for nonprofits and ministries!
