Website in the Works!

I am very excited to say that my website is on its way! I've been working the better part of today on it and I am almost done the design phase. I cannot wait to start coding and then finally post it! It's taken long enough...

Also, coincidentally, this photo is showcasing my new logo! Business cards to be sent to print shortly.

Valentines Gift

My friend enlisted me to help him with a Valentines gift for his girlfriend, and I was more than happy to oblige. He had a photo of him and his girlfriend and he wanted to turn it into a piece of album cover art. He gave me an inspirational photo and off I went, testing my photoshop skills as I went. Here is the final result, I hope she likes it!

More Tea Time

Here is 'Tea Time (warm)', the second in the collection. I'm really happy with the way these turned out!

I have uploaded this one to Spoonflower, however, even after my best attempts at colour balancing, I could not get it to look right. I'll try again soon!

First Pattern!

I just finished my first successful pattern design! It is called Tea Time (cool). I will also be creating a version of this pattern using a warm colour palette. I have been having some trouble with colour calibration, but Tea Time should be up on Spoonflower *hopefully* soon!

Logo Logo Logo

I'm working on some logos for my friends' fitness company, and it is lots of fun! I just finished two pages of comps for them and I can't wait to hear their reactions. It is fun creating this kind of a brand because it is a little out of my comfort zone (in regards to fitness/exercise) but it is also very female oriented, which I am definitely into. Lots of purple! Here's a small peek of one of my ideas.

Unconventional Party Invitation

I was asked to do an invitation for my step-grandmother's moving out party. They wanted to call her, instead of a senior citizen, a 'super citizen' so I came up with this sketch:


Which, that evening, turned into this final piece! I'd have to say this was my fastest creation yet. Click the photo to enlarge!

Christmas Gift Idea

This is a preview of an illustration I am working on for my friend's Christmas gift. The finished piece should be done soon!
