We can't grade effort, we grade results

Hello Autumn!

Fall is by far my favorite time of year! So I made this gift for a special someone who loves bats as much as I love owls, but I think I'll hold on to it until the first day of Fall before I give it to him. I know, I know, how cuteeeee! haha! Anyways I've tried out some new texture techniques and I'm pretty happy with the way it's turned out! For the love of Fall, enjoy!

Holiday gift card package design

Hand crafted holiday gift card holder! I wanted to do something different from the traditional Christmas color of just red and green, but still keep that holiday feel. Happy Holidays every Enjoy!

 

Life Cycle

This poster is one of three poster series that I'm working on. Hopefully I'll have enough time over winter break to work on the other ones!

  

Time to get started on those dreams!

  I have had this sketch on wood panel for quite some time now, with no time to paint. Tonight however I'm making time. If I want to reach my goal of being a great illustrator I have to start working harder then ever before!

Ganesh

In the past few years I've come to love the Indian culture, perhaps one of my favorite has to be all of the different Gods the imagery behind them. The idea of an elephant-headed god, awesome! So here's my take on the god Ganesh. 

This was one of those projects that I had in my sketchbook for a long ass time before I finally got the chance to complete it. Thankfully I had a class project that called for something like this, so I could actually take the time to complete it! Yayy school work/personal work mash ups!

Heirloom

This was project for my package design class, we had to design a bottle label. 

Most of the other students stuck with the original soda bottle to design for, but I absolutely love wine and other alcohol bottle labels.(Really, I have an obsession with package design.) I wanted to do something elegant and something a little eclectic, so a Kudu it is!

Typography

My first typography assignment.
