Coming to terms with a shrinking market
Filed under: General
Posted by: site admin @ 9:08 pm

As a Illustrator, then print production artist, and finally a designer I have tried to follow the arc of new developments in advertising and marketing. Until the rise of Google and the major search-engine based advertising models, I think the only constant has been the devaluation of individual labor in the art of print production and the value visual design. New design and business ideas are always the most valuable, but least tangible commodity, and have been vulnerable to poaching every year. I believe that trend has finally come to a tipping point in my practice. I have found that because of the proliferation of web site production to common labor markets, the web designer’s lot (at least in the U.S.) has now started down the path of the print designer. Next time: Is there a solution?

Hello, world!

There’s a new Blog in town at Lone Wolf Studio…

This simple blog is going to be my cover letter to the new Lone Wolf Studio. This method of communication with the greater Internet audience is also a demonstration. I want to share a few thoughts, as well as demonstrate some basic capabilities and ideas for designs for WordPress templates and other “blogging” tools that I might develop in the future.

Happy trails! C
