Bearded Man Studio

I dabble in graphic design under the moniker Bearded Man Studio. Eventually I’m going to have a site completely devoted to that endeavor, but in the mean time I’ve gone ahead and created a few pages on this site to better showcase my portfolio.  I’m a self proclaimed non-expert; however, I do enjoy creating things and listening to Underoath.  If for no other reason than that, Bearded Man exists.  If you need any design work for graphics or web, shoot me an email and we’ll talk.  ben@biggzipp.com

4 Graphic Designers that Inspire Me

May 19th, 2009 | Category: Expression,Graphic Design

I guess you could say that I’m mostly a hobbiest graphic designer.  I make a little money here and there and I do a bunch of stuff for my church, but mostly I just want to learn and have fun.  These are 4 graphic designers / companies  that I find inspiring.

Tee Shirt Design #1 (I did a version of this in dark grey that looked really good as well)

Tee Shirt Design #2

This is some design work I did for some a camp that some of my buddies are putting on.  The job included the creation of a logo, t-shirt, and promotional poster.  I was given a fair amount of freedom in the direction of the design and I decided to incorporate a Lion because of it’s messianic symbolism.  Jesus is the Lion of the Tribe of Judah, our Savior, and He is like no other.

Recent Design Work

March 15th, 2009 | Category: Expression,Graphic Design

These are a couple of new logos / designs I recently completed.

connect-blog1

The goal with this design was to try to illustrate the idea of connecting through the logo.  This was achieved through a techy / tetris-esque feel that demonstrates movement with the letters.

certain2

I intentionally went for a darker / metal theme with this logo.  The intent was not to be scary, but rather to illustrate a serious message in an edgy way.

Daniel

Our church is about to start a new series on the book of Daniel and I’ve been working on a graphic for the series.  This is the final result, which I’m pretty happy with.  This is the first time I’ve experimented with a “hand-drawn” style.

24 church Newspaper Advertisements

October 29th, 2008 | Category: Expression,Graphic Design

I’m the Discipleship Pastor for 24church, but I also manage a lot of other things including the website, the college ministry, and more recently the graphic design work for the church. Here are a few advertisements that we’ve recently run in our local paper to promote a sermon series on Biblical Manhood and Womanhood.

My favorite of the ads because the phrase "good in bed" caused controversy amongst the community. I love stupid controversy!

I’d had posted all of this stuff on this blog before, but I am reposting it since I’m an idiot and deleted all the previous content.  This is some design work I’ve done from time to time over the last several years.
