My darling friends Jessica and Shea got married recently and I was honored to create their wedding announcements for them. Jessica wanted a homemade/vintage look so I happily obliged. These were so much fun to make - it was the first time I tried circle inserts (since I was bored of the square and rectangle ones) and it added to the playfulness of the whole thing and turned out to be a success! Congrats Mr. & Mrs. Stott!
Where Great Design Ideas Come From
I'm making more of an online presence! You heard me! I wrote a blog article!... for a different blog other than this one. Check it out! It'll help if you're struggling to find some inspiration.
2013 Henna Calendar
Happy 2013 everyone! We're still alive!!!! And look who made a new calendar... I had a roommate that could do henna and I became obsessed with it. Henna designs are the coolest. So I decided to illustrate animals made out of henna which was so much fun. I hope you enjoy!!
When my youngest brother was about 3 or 4, he wouldn't eat. He just had no desire to. So my dad took to writing a children's book about it. Now, about 15 years later we decided to share it with the world. I've been working on the illustrations and here are the first 3 pages so far.
Oh and don't worry - my brother decided he liked food eventually. ;)
I was asked to put together a fun wall vinyl that had the DownEast feel because it was going to go in all of the stores. I came up with this illustration and I'm really proud of it. Working on this stretched my mind in a way it hadn't been stretched before because of how big and ornate it needed to be.
DownEast teams up with Live for Pink every year. Live for Pink is an organization dedicated to finding a treatment for breast cancer. To raise awareness, DownEast has a Live for Pink sale every year where they sell all of their pink core items for half off. This is a vinyl banner that hung behind the pink clings. I thought a typography collage would work really well for the cause and for the space and placement of the banner.
My apartment doesn't have AC or a swamp cooler. And yes, it's awful. So I'm living off of cold popsicles, soda, cold everything. That's why I'm so excited about this new Utah company called Pops Bulla. Get this: they put cereal (like Fruit Loops, for example) in milk, and then take that milk and make it into a popsicle! How fun is that?! I was asked to create their logo and I had a ton of fun with it. It's a play off of the Sex Wax logo - a surfboard company.
