Have you Hugged Your Generator Today?


The good people at the Renewable Energy Alaska Project contacted me to design an invitation to their 6th anniversary party. After several attempts at images that were contrived, over-thought and convoluted, I came up with this. The image of a husky on a treadmill is based on a visit years ago to Martin Buser's kennel where he had over-sized hamster wheels for his dogs to train on for the Iditarod. Truth is stranger than illustration.

  1. Actually, truth is not always stranger than * your* illustrations, Pete.

  2. Strange? What's strange about a husky running on an over-sized hamster wheel to make electricity for a vaguely Parisian Art Nouveau street lam...oh, never mind.
