Recently, his son, Jacob, requested that he&#8217;d like to use this particular cartoon poster of his dad for his new business \u2013 Jake&#8217;s Janitorial. Because the original image depicted Greg facing away from the viewer, I revised it into something more suitable for commercial use. The result was the happy-go-lucky custodial character created as a tribute to Jacob&#8217;s father, Greg \u2014 the man who inspired Jacob to start his <em>own<\/em> janitorial business. In his father&#8217;s tradition, Jacob intends to conduct Jake&#8217;s Janitorial with the same high standards of hard work, quality and excellence. Using the requested color palette with some vintage type resulted in a fun and meaningful logo for Jacob to utilize.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-3901\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thorenson.com\/portfolio\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Jakes_main.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1081\" height=\"602\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thorenson.com\/portfolio\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Jakes_main.jpg 1081w, https:\/\/www.thorenson.com\/portfolio\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Jakes_main-980x546.jpg 980w, https:\/\/www.thorenson.com\/portfolio\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Jakes_main-480x267.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1081px, 100vw\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-3900\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thorenson.com\/portfolio\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Jakes_logoSystem.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1081\" height=\"602\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thorenson.com\/portfolio\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Jakes_logoSystem.jpg 1081w, https:\/\/www.thorenson.com\/portfolio\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Jakes_logoSystem-980x546.jpg 980w, https:\/\/www.thorenson.com\/portfolio\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Jakes_logoSystem-480x267.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1081px, 100vw\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-3898\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thorenson.com\/portfolio\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Jakes_BusinessCards.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1081\" height=\"602\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thorenson.com\/portfolio\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Jakes_BusinessCards.jpg 1081w, https:\/\/www.thorenson.com\/portfolio\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Jakes_BusinessCards-980x546.jpg 980w, https:\/\/www.thorenson.com\/portfolio\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Jakes_BusinessCards-480x267.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1081px, 100vw\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Several years ago I created an illustrated poster for a co-worker friend&#8217;s birthday \u2014 the hard-working, friendly custodian of the BSC Technical Center \u2014 the legendary Greg Achtenberg.
