Waddell’s Brewpub & Grille

Rube Waddell

I’ve been fortunate to work closely with the owner of Waddell’s on his new restaurant in North Spokane, Waddell’s Brewpub & Grille. After initial meetings it was determined that we needed to really bring back the legend of Rube Waddell, a remarkably dominant strikeout pitcher from the early 1900’s. Stories and newspaper clippings tell a wild tale of this man.

Waddell’s on- and off-field exploits became instant legends.

Waddell was so unpredictable, and into fire fighting, that a myth was circulated that he had a habit of leaving the dugout in the middle of games to follow passing fire trucks to fires.

He performed as an alligator wrestler in the offseason.

Fastballs, fishing, fire fighting, females and firewater – all were favorite pasttimes of Rube Waddell. And, not necessarily in that order – as long as it added up to fun.

The restaurant, brewery, beer logos, and website are all rooted in these stories and they were a blast to research and illustrate.

Lucky Jack Orchards

Another great logo project, this time for Lucky Jack Orchards, north of Wenatchee, WA.

The new owners of Lucky Badger Orchards wanted to honor their father Jack, who had founded the orchard with a partner in the 60’s, so they changed the name to fit. Jack was a Green Beret in the Army and the family has a history of military service. A Jack of Hearts playing card was used as the basis of the logo (and business cards), swapping the hearts for apples and a green beret for the Jack.

Mansfield Connection

Spokane Valley Public Works hired me to create some renderings of an upcoming street connection project. The goal of the renderings are to show the public what is being planned, which is to tear down the apartment building and to finally make Mansfield a through street.

Drag the sliders to see before and after.

Shanny the Nanny

Today is our nanny, Shannon‘s, last day. She’s not only in her third trimester but she’s moving to Boise with her husband!

She has been a wonderful addition to our family and we will miss her greatly. Our little boy James was very lucky to have her in his life for his first year.

As a going away present, my wife wrote a beautiful note and then gave me links to some of Shannon’s best instagram photos of our little boy. I put it all together and let’s just say there were some tears shed this morning when I gave it to her.

Dear Shannon,
You were my PARENT when my mommy and daddy could not be with me.
You were my TEACHER by reading me stories and showing me life lessons.
You were my BEST FRIEND day after day by playing with me and making me laugh.
Your positive influence on the first year of my life will never be forgotten.
Thank you for being the best nanny ever!
I will miss you.
Love, James
