This segment of our blog has been sadly neglected over the winter, but today we're back with a profile of one of our kids team members, Deanna, AKA Dee! Let's see what she has to say...
Mild manner graphic designer by day, super hermit by night! I like to hide myself away in a dark hole where I watch cartoons, read comic books, and attempt to draw pretty pictures! When I occasionally do emerge from my cave I prefer to be out scampering in nature. When outdoors, I often like following any cute little critter that crosses my path (some of my coworkers can attest to how excited I get when I chase after a grasshopper). Speaking of cute little critters, I'm also the proud aunt of a very adorable 3 year old and a pair of the cutest little twins ya'll could ever lay your eyes upon.
Who or what is your greatest inspiration?
Inspiration is anywhere and everywhere. It’s always a good idea to carry a sketchbook or notepad so you’re prepared when a good idea hits you. It's actually much easier to ask what ISN'T my inspiration. The answer to that is, of course, sea cucumbers.
What five things can't you live without?
#1 Family! Can't live with 'em can't live without 'em!
#2 Making art
#3 Music
#4 Cartoons and Comic Books (and all other assorted forms of nerdery)
#5 Fruit…nature's candy
What is one of your favorite products you have worked on, or designed, here at Colorbök?
I really enjoyed designing the needlepoint kids craft kits. Working in medium I’m not used to and thinking about art in a grid pattern was a little different. It's always fun for an artist to create something that's outside their comfort zone challenging them to explore the boundaries of their artistic abilities.
