Grammy nominated designer Don Clark, who owns a graphic design firm in Seattle, spoke to several classes of students on April 7 at Sheldon High School.
Clark graduated from Elk Grove High School where he took art class all four years with Debbie George, who now teaches at Sheldon.
Clark and his brother do all the work for the successful, two-man operation Invisible Creature.
The name of the design firm sounds as if it could be a band’s name. That’s because the brothers were playing together in professional bands long before they started the design firm, which has clients such as Target, Nordstrom and the band Foo Fighters.
I spoke to Clark after the presentation about the future of graphic design. I was under the impression that careers in that field were dwindling. Turns out, that’s just graphic design at newspapers. The kind of “boutique” graphic design Clark does is still a growing field.
