The national theme for
Gay PRIDE 1999 was "A Powerful Past, a Powerful Future." The gay men's
social club I belong to, called the Northeast Ursamen, needed a way to
present this theme as we paraded down the streets of Hartford, Connecticut.
I proposed the initial concept of re-rendering the club logo "Neuman" (shown
below) in period costume from the past and the future. The logo I
drew (shown above), was used to decorate the club's limited edition
commemorative t-shirt, and was used as the basis for the club float (shown
below). The club earned itself the highest award for its entry in
the Hartford PRIDE festival parade: Best Interpretation of Theme.
Feel free to visit the Northeast Ursamen
website.
