a retreat

I found this amazing place in the midst of the city where I can just sit and stare at the beautiful creation. It's like being in the country, which I like on occasion. Calm. Wonderful.

I'm an explorer if it's not obvious. I like to find things.

the letter a

My goal in these upcoming pictures is to find a capital and lowercase for each letter of the alphabet, but then to also find an unintentional example of that letter ... if that makes sense.

hmmm

Sorry no picture today...but I did meet a graphic designer who works for Aurora. He said I should shoot higher in the field rather than settle for designing/editing layouts. I said everyone starts somewhere. He agreed but urged me to consider more. That makes me curious. I scored a definite business card though.

Reginald Baylor is a Milwaukee native. He uses basic geometric shapes to form his paintings and if you look up close, it is ridiculously intricate and wonderful. His paint is so smooth and immaculate. Love it!

signs

I enjoy how this sign works around the corner. And it's not Helvetica...so they are stepping outside the box. Looks close to Gill Sans. 

the skyline

I always like looking at city skylines. There are some important landmarks captured here. The Miller Brewing Company, the Hoan Bridge, the U.S. Bank building, and, of course, Miller Park.

graffiti

I always find graffiti to be quite curious. I saw this on a bench waiting for the bus. My favorite graffiti is the stuff that ends up on the train cars. In a way it's an art. 

Bansky is an interesting graffiti artist in the UK. I like some of his work.

Let's say you have a whole bus to yourself. Where do you sit?
