Made & Made Up.
Fifteen years of brand work, and the drawing I never stopped doing on the side.
Design.
Brand systems, identity, editorial, and product design. Some for clients, some just to solve the problem. Built to hold up when other people are the ones using it.
Control Freak — cover concept
A gaming magazine cover built around Marshmello. The masthead stays clean and the "FREAK" gets sprayed over it in red, so the type argues with itself. Concept - InDesign
Marshmello — editorial spread
The inside feature to go with the cover. Full-bleed photo, drop cap, pull quote running vertical up the side. Concept - InDesign
Certn — animated email assets
Animated GIFs for email campaigns — the case report building out, tasks resolving, the info-sharing flow moving on mobile. Built in Canva, timed to make a dense product feel like it's actually doing something.

A little spirit cupping a candle in a teacup, glow doing all the work against a near-black background.

Environment and asset art for a match-style game: gingerbread houses, candy everywhere, the start screen. This game was developed by the engineering students at Pacific Design Academy as a functional tileset game.

Brushing teeth
Green-tiled bathroom, dog at her feet, morning sun. The cozy-domestic series again. Signed.
Working from the chair wrong
Orange sweater, kneeling backwards on the chair the way nobody's supposed to sit. The posture is the whole joke.

Big Small Things
A woman carrying boxes next to an ant doing the same, scaled up to human size. Part of a series of small things scaled up massive.
Certn Landscapes - Sunrise
For a period of time, Certn had mascots. This was a fun exercise to explore their world, so I illustrated some desktop backgrounds as if living in their world on our screens.

A play on my own name, which means "Little Rock". A little terrarium with little rocks.
Certn Landscapes - Headquarters
For a period of time, Certn had mascots. This was a fun exercise to explore their world, so I illustrated some desktop backgrounds as if living in their world on our screens.
