About the Art
Success is not built on success. It's built on failure. It's built on frustration. Sometimes it's built on catastrophe.
That’s a quote from Sumner Redstone.
In this piece, the word ‘success’ is bright, because that’s what people see. They don’t so readily see those failures you go through to achieve a success.
I did an iceberg version of this also. But I like to pare everything back to the core idea – making the layout and shape of the words communicate the message in the most simple way. So everything is about communicating the concept without a microgram of flab.

Most Art on verbly is my original wording, inspired by many things. And it's always my typographic expression. I also do custom concepts to inspire your team.

This is the guarantee I work to:
If I make a concept tailored for your team, I’ll make dynamite. If you’re not delighted with it, I’ll give you another art piece or your money back – your choice. If anything screws up – with custom art or non-custom – whether it's a delivery, a quality issue, or anything else, I’ll fix it in a way that works for you. (There’s been only one delivery screw up so far.)
I’m grateful for every piece of business that comes my way. Thanks for considering verb.ly
