Twelve Days of Christmas: Dark Tidings

Starting Friday the 13th, some of Substack’s favorite horror writers will give the classic Christmas carol a terrifying twist... Deets 👉 The Twelve Days of Christmas: Dark Tidings

I had so much fun working on the monogram for this project. It was challenging to find a simple concept that can be used on 12 separate images, but sit subtly in the corner as a way to connect them all together.

This is also the first client for a new project I'm working on. After 20+ years of web design and development, I've recently decided to attempt a career pivot. I've come to realize my favorite part of every project I've ever done was the process of branding and logo creation. I can just get totally lost in it (in a good way).

Not knowing how best to proceed, I reached out to a master of branding (and a design hero of mine) Mackey Saturday—Instagram, Oculus, Silk and WAY more. Among his many insights, the main thing he encouraged me to do was to "just let people know this was who you are and show up at every opportunity with all you have".

So, on that note, I'm taking a leap of faith, buying a new domain and launching MARK of the BRAND in 2025. 🤘
