I like drawing.
Illustrations / Printmaking
I like to bring my drawing skills into my digital illustrations. Mixing the natural flow of the pencil on a page and the structure of digital programs is both challenging and exciting. All of the illustrations below were for clients and they were each full of experimentation. Each client gave me new skills and improved my work overall.
This client wanted to surprise her husband with a set of maps of their hometowns during the year they were born. These images were created to be printed 40 inches by 40 inches on canvas.
Many states rely on hospitality services to keep their economies running. These posters were created to show some of the important landmarks of the states involved.
Every year Keene State College has an Academic Excellence Conference. These posters were created to promote the Conference in 2014.
My Senior BFA series was focused on the feeling of loss and the intersection of life and death.
My grandfather passed away when I was six and it was my first understanding of death and loss. At the age of 22 I had a dream with a message from my grandfather, which drastically changed my life path. My grandfather was worried about me, about how I was going to move forward in life and make something of myself. This dream pushed me from just wanting to survive to needing to thrive. This series is a surrealist abstract illustration of the interaction between my grandfather and I. I will forever be grateful to know such an amazing man, even if it was for such a short time.
