We here at J Sherman Studio like to strategize beyond color psychology all the time. Check out my quick video and let me know what you think! #TOTD #colorpsychology
What do color psychology 🌈 and movie trailers 🎥 have in common? Check out what Abigail Maulion has to say in her TOTD (thought of the day), and let us know what you think! Happy Monday!
In the spirit of this week's fireworks displays, we at J Sherman Studio are sharing three ways to spark creativity in your work. And I'd like to personally add a fourth: Step out of your comfort zone—try something new. To be honest, talking in front of a camera and making these little videos (and then posting them online!) does NOT come naturally or easy to me! But it's opened the door to figuring out how I want to explain and present ideas, and it's ignited a side of myself that feels unfamiliar yet intriguing. I look forward to exploring this new avenue more, flexing my presentation muscles more, and seeing what sparks and connections my future holds. And thanks to the support from friends and colleagues, all of this feels just a bit less scary! 🎆 🎇 🎆 🎇
This week's firework festivities 🎆 make us think about the ways that we here at the Studio keep our creative spark alive and kicking, so that we can light up and bring life to our work. Abigail Maulion shares three ideas 💡💡💡 to keep the inspiration coming—and we've listed them below too for your convenience! Happy 4th, everyone! 3 WAYS TO SPARK CREATIVITY 1. Go outside 2. Build an inspiration board 3. Give yourself a "micro-challenge"
Put down your highlighter for a sec, I've got a quick design thought of the day for you! Let me know what you think, and if you want to see more videos like this, tell me what you want to hear about next!
✨ Have you ever gone a little too highlighter-happy? 🖍️ We can relate! 💡 Quick TOTD (thought of the day) from Abigail Maulion, touching on the importance of deliberate emphasis and visual hierarchy. Let us know what you think! 🤔👇 #HighlighterHappy #DesignTips #TOTD #ThoughtOfTheDay #DesignAdvice
I'm thrilled to announce that J Sherman Studio is cooking up something new: our "Creative Command: Intro to Design" webinar! In our presentation, we share the Studio's top design tips and tricks for the non-designer. PB Dubois, Julie Sherman, and I have presented to a couple of groups so far (Ruth Hartt and Success Story Studio thank you for having us!) and hope to bring this to more folks in the future. More to come as we continue to explore this new and fun offering—and feel free to DM me if you're interested in learning more!
Organization, efficiency, and refreshed/cleaned up anything are 100% my love language, so this week's J Sherman Studio newsletter really speaks to me! (And now I'm itching to spring clean my home this weekend too—I should probably warn my family about the purging tornado that's heading their way 😆) Happy Friday, all!
We here at J Sherman Studio love helping our clients put their best foot forward with a subtle visual identity refresh, an expansion, or a complete overhaul! In my former nonprofit marketing/communications role, I would have found this newsletter to be helpful food for thought for rebrand approach and planning. Hope you find it useful too!

Did you know that approximately 50% of graphic designers are female, but less than 1% of agencies are women-owned? Gender norms are always at play in the workplace and in the world, but let’s break it down: when does it really matter in our work? #womanownedbusiness #designstudio #wonderwoman
