Dear Don't Quit Community,
In this edition of the "Don't Quit," we delve into the profound world of emotional design, where visuals become a language that speaks directly to the heart. Join us as we explore the transformative power of visual language in the entrepreneurial journey, tapping into emotions that fuel resilience, passion, and unwavering determination.
Creating a harmonious connection with your audience's emotions through intentional visual choices involves a thoughtful and strategic approach to design. This includes understanding the emotions you want to evoke, selecting colors that resonate with those emotions, choosing fonts that convey the right tone, curating evocative imagery, balancing layout elements, maintaining consistency across platforms, telling a compelling visual story, understanding your audience, testing and iterating based on feedback, and ensuring accessibility and inclusivity in your design. By integrating these considerations, you can craft a visually engaging experience that not only captures attention but also deeply resonates with the emotions you aim to evoke, fostering a strong and lasting connection with your audience.
Why Don’t Quit and how is this considered in each design?

Here is a demo video "A brief beginners guide to drawing and painting a portrait". In this video I am teaching you how to start the drawing of an image, using a reference image and how to paint it. creating layers over the under painting. I am encouraging the use of many colors such as blues and red which some people may not associate with being "skin tones" that you would use in a portrait painting. The video is intended for you to paint along with me. Of course you can pause the video and really take your time with the artwork. This is a Timelaspe video & the process is defenitely speed up. I have taken my time to create this tutorial or "how to" video so I really hope that it will prove helpful to some of you amateur artists out there. This video is intended for absolute beginners. Please note, this portrait is NOT intended to be a perfect painting. I am simply trying to encourage people who may be wanting to refresh their skills or take up painting the figure/portrait from the very start.

L.E.O. "Love EveryOne" ... Connecting through tHEARTS
L.E.O. is an acronym for "Love EveryOne" This is a nonprofit organization working to educate kids & the community, on the influence of art in our everyday lives. Through L.E.O. , We have the ability not only to beautify and enhance people’s lives and environments, but also to bring them together, to inspire dialogue, to produce work that acts as a bridge between individuals, that paves the way for us to communicate with one another, to open up and share our experiences.
We paint murals, public art projects, fine art canvases, & large commercial signage anywhere.
The first project of L.E.O. started this past weekend Sat. March 19th at 13th & Green Elementary School in Reading PA. Due to the size of the mural we were limited to the number of students and community kids to come help with this project but we are expecting everything to grow as we move forward. Look below for a gallery of pictures showcasing our first day creating The L.E.O. Mural project at 13th & Green Elementary School.
