Having quiet spells as a freelancer is a funny thing…on the one hand I drive myself insane stressing out about when the next job is going to come through but then again, it always ends up being suppressed by an unquenchable desire to shoot. It’s an itch I’ve got to find a way to scratch and it’s really the only thing that calms my mind. Doing what I love to.
Worry less. Shoot more.

Creating Food #PantonePairings with @dschwen
Minneapolis-based illustrator and art director David Schwen (@dschwen) has long used Instagram as a creative outlet, documenting unique typography, literally interpreting common turns of phrase, and adding notification badges to everyday objects.
But lately, Schwen has embarked on a new theme: through the hashtag #pantonepairings, he has recreated paired Pantone color swatches with commonly paired food items.
“As a designer, you’re constantly picking color chips and pairing them up with one another. A while back I had an idea of making Pantone chips out of real household objects—sponges, cardboard, and the like. But while I was finishing up a poster design, I had taped two Pantone chips together to see how they looked next to one another. Instantly I thought of how people pair food together, and that was that. Pantone pairings.”
Check out @dschwen to see the rest of David’s #pantonepairings and follow along to see what he dreams up next!
Ok, i’ve been getting variations of the same email lately that go something like this: “how did you start getting work?”. I do like getting these emails so keep on sending them. I’m more than happy to spew nonsense at you, just keep in mind i’m not exactly a seasoned pro here. I’ve been shooting…
