Weekly Inspiration

On the way to and from school I pass three different stores with dogs in the windows. Of course this means it takes me about twice as long to walk as it should.

I once heard poet Billy Collins speak and he said that if he ever didn't know where a poem was going, he would let a dog wander through it. I think this can apply to design as well. People really relate and connect to dogs, even images of dogs. There's always a few people looking in the windows of the stores when I get there. A common ground gets created between us. It's like since we know must both like dogs, then we must be nice person (or at least one you'd talk to on the street).
