Illustration Friday: Skyline
During the Salt Lake Winter Olympic Games I worked for The O.C. Tanner Company, who manufactured the medals for those games. I got deeply involved in the games by designing the US Olympic Team rings. Pin trading was (and is) really hot during the Olympics, and I designed over 2 dozen pins for that occasion. If you'd like to see all those designs, you can see them on my website, Art of Garth, as well as ring designs for the Sydney Summer Olympic Games, and the Athens Summer Olympic Games.
Now, onto Illustration Friday's theme, Skyline. I had the opportunity to design an Olympic Commemoration medal to be presented to President George W. Bush. The medal was manufactured with the same materials as the gold medals, pure silver core, with gold plating. It represents Salt Lake City's skyline. It's quite a heavy medal. I had a blast being so involved!
Here is the O.C. Tanner CEO, Chair of the Board, and IOC President presenting the medal to President George Bush and his lovely wife.
