Shirley Cover

This is the cover for the illustrated story I'm working on. It's an idea I've had in my head for months and I've finally gotten some of it on paper. Hopefully more to come very soon.

Bridal Invite

This Invitation card started out with the client wanting pink and lots of flowers, though I'm not a huge fan of pink, I accepted the challenge of making it pink and floral but chic and sophisticated as the bride herself wanted. Over all the project was fun and all parties were happy with the end result.

Monday's Sketches

Random Characters

I've drawn so many different characters and random fashion drawings that I have an entire sketchbook filled literally from cover to cover with random people, that I'm not quiet sure what to do with. Recently I've decided to put some of these characters to work. So far I've chosen five girls they're at the top of my page, I've given each one a name and

I'm currently working on their individual bio's and seeing inspiration for a storyline to make a short comic stripe of these five girls. I'm open to suggestions and feedback so don't be shy, leave your comments, ideas and suggestions below.

Invitation Cards

I've designed quiet a few invitation cards and evites. These are normally fun to do. Especially the ones for kids birthday parties or get togethers. These are a few that I've done. Feel free comment on which you like best or any suggestions for improvement.Toodles.

Pencil and Paper Days

Every once in a while when time permits, I can't help but just doodle or do a quick sketch of whatever comes to mind. When creativity strikes I'll draw on just about any surface I have access to at the time. The above sketches were done on the back of a "Cosi" restaurant receipt (great lunch spot with amazing flat bread). I scanned it them before I finally tossed the receipt.

Tie Dye Crewnecks

I was really excited when I was told we'd be trying out some tie dye tees. We hadn't done tie dye in a loooooooong while. Anyway a simple one color screenprint with a touch of applique was the desired look and ta-da!

T-Shirt Artwork

Most of the Artwork I do now is T-shirt art. The above pieces are semi generic, and were fun to design. They have a hint of detail treatments from metallic (silver foil, gold foil) to high density, embroidery stitching etc.
