Foodie Buttons!

I recently created these new buttons for Whole Foods Market Chelsea Team Members to celebrate Team Member Appreciation Week. Each Team Member's name was placed in the center of the button. Don't worry– this is not the only thing done for the Team Members– there was food, massages, gifts and, oddly enough, karaoke. The people I spoke with really did seem to enjoy their new buttons, and that's pretty cool. They were fun to make of course, since I love food. My favorites are the sushi and the avocado. Pop quiz– the one on the top right may look like cake, but it ain't– what foodie item is it?

New LogoThis is a new logo for the demo-fest held every Tuesday evening at the Chelsea Whole Foods Market store. Every department has free samples available from 5pm–7pm. I wanted to convey Springtime, freshness, and simplicity with this design. I like both of the fonts a lot on their own, but I also dig how they contrast– one a bit edgy and more contemporary, but still with a home-made quality– the other with a clean, retro charm. Besides all that, who doesn't like free samples?

Happy Thanksgiving! (or the holiday I almost hate now)Well, things have been very hectic for me lately, since where I work Thanksgiving is bigger than Jesus and his birthday. But the stress will all melt away tomorrow, when I get to eat lots of yummy food, including my very own famous French apple pie.
I don't normally post the illustrations I do of food for something at Whole Foods called "faves", because they can be pretty boring out of context, but on the eve of the holiday most worshiping food, I thought it was appropriate. Enjoy the feast!
