Thank you, that leads to various sites about
Mark Drnek - founder, owner, creative director
of Sweet Home Productions.
Your paper's interview with him a couple of years ago
has him discussing his background.
"I started out doing illustration when I moved up here (from New York
City).
I was an illustrator of children’s materials, and then wound up moving
to
(the State University College at Oneonta) for a while a graphics
coordinator.
I went from there to rejuvenating the State Times newspaper, and from
there wound up putting out some publications, which I had no
background
in, and then doing a small design company. I worked for The Daily Star
for
a time, and having gone from the Star back into publishing, I was
doing a
community publication called Sweet Home Oneonta, which is where the
name Sweet Home Productions comes from."

He also seems to have an interest in The Blues:
