False Start

Thank you Carolyn for the nice compliment, the whole series was really a challenge, a very satisfying challenge. I learned a lot from it.

every single card is magnificent. i just can't comment on them all. :)

Thank you Johny for the compliment, I appreciate it. Haven't been able to find anybody who is willing to help me get them printed. Wanted to a limited edition run of giclee prints. It looks as if I am going to have to sell them off, I don't want to, but like a lot of other people, I need the money....

These are great! Did you publish them as a set?

Thanks Tim, after thirty eight years in the commercial art business I've seen them all, art directors, A Es, copywriters, designers, it has really changed and coming from the west coast to the east coast is another mind numbing experience. The abstracts are what kept me sane (thats debatable) and enjoying the feeling and satisfaction that creativeness can bring. In the mid to late 70s and early80s working in the bay area was really quite fun, there was more creativity because there was a connection and a cooperation between all the people involved in bringing a project to fruition, ADs,AEs, copywriters, printers, paper companies, type setters, everybody brought something to the table, and the eat'n was good!!

Great! Let's see the whole deck! Amazing stuff, Cliff - ain't it great to be your own art director after years of taking direction from others?!
