The paddles forming the shape of a ship wheel gives this logo a sense of stability and direction. |

El Matador - Menu Cover |
El Matador - Toledo, Ohio |
1999 |
Photography, Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Photoshop |
This menu was done for an Italian/Mexican restaurant. The idea of the two cultures together made a challenging project for a menu cover. The spiral pasta as mexican zig-zags were the only elements needed to hold the menu together. This is a truly unique design. |

Horizon Hydroponics - Logo and Business Card |
Horizon Hydroponics - Jenison, Michigan |
1999 |
Adobe Illustrator |
Since hydroponics are based on growing plants without soil, it was apropriate to associate the company with a sun that looks like water. |

Weiss Media - Eugene, Oregon |
2000 |

Down To Earth - Catalog Cover (garden Side) |
Down To Earth |
2005 |
Photography, Adobe Streamline, Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Photoshop |
The Down To Earth catalog contains over 3,000 products that are sold wholesale. I assisted in the layout of these catalogs that contained at least 130 pages. The cover showed the Home products on this bi-annual publication, flip the catalog over and find the cover for Garden products. The intent of this style was to give the company a younger, modern feel. |

Dragonfly Interior Designs - Logo and Business Card |
Dragonfly Interior Designs - Eugene, Oregon |
2006 |
Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Photoshop |
A large amount of effort was taken to redraw this dragonfly in Adobe Illustrator. The original image was a photo taken by a friend of mine. The colors are classic, yet bright enough to give this designer a fresh look. |

Dance for Peace - Logo and Promo Poster |
Jaxx - Eugene, Oregon |
2006 |
Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Photoshop |
Every Wednesday I assisted in working the door at this event. All of the cover charge went to a local nonprofit that was active in ending the war in Iraq. The peace sign is made up of feet and arrows, indicating dancing instructions. The couple are from an old, odd record cover. I like how they happen to be looking at the logo. |

Sara Jaffe - Yard Sign and Business Card |
Gray's Web Design - Yachats, Oregon |
2006 |
Adobe Illustrator |
The client needed a logo including the designer's initials. I tried to position the "j" so it would redirect the viewer's eye back into the company info. The elements were designed around the fact that the majority of the advertising was to be done with yard signs, resulting in a clean message that could be interpeted quickly by a passing car. |

Tarus Ball - Flier |
Tucker - Portland, Oregon |
2006 |
Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Photoshop |
I designed this flier within 4 days, after the promoter called me in a panic. I wish I had more time to work on the art for this project, as the event was worthy of a cooler flier. All in all, I feel the illustration is strong. This piece is a great example of my abilities to deliver great art under insane deadlines. |

Chris Sovey - Lansing, MI |
2007 |
Illustration, Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Streamline |
Chris Sovey contacted me through a recording studio I had done some work for in Lansing, Michigan. The actual cd represents the jewel case cover, his photograph set over a brick wall and illustrations of mazes. The mazes were used to reinforce the title of the album, Lost Without You. |

The back of Chris Sovey's CD package shows a photograph of him leaning on a brick wall. I expanded on the image, adding a doorway and other brick walls. I was hoping to suggest he was taking lost in a giant labyrinth. |

The inside of the CD package folds out to contain the song lyrics. I had to manipulate a large amount of text to get this information to fit within 4 panels (the 4th panel is on the CD cover layout). |

The mazes were used to reinforce the title of the album, Lost Without You. I like the effect of the center panel, the instruments are faded behind the typography in gray while the blue in his shirt brings him to the foreground. |

The tray case for the CD package is a simple combination of the brick walls I created and the mazes I illustrated. The two make for a nice texture. |

Make it BIG - Book Cover Design and Logo Design |
Robin Jackson - Portland, OR |
2007 |
Illustration, Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Photoshop |
Although the writer went with a different book title, I feel that this imagery is strong in getting the point across. If you want to be a rock star, you must have this book. The figure in the center with the guitar was inspired by Robert Plant. |

The packaging for the liquid fertilizers was designed with a few existing elements in mind. First, all of the existing packaging contained the red horseshoe. The soil bag illustration was very popular with the owners, so I incorporated it into the background. From this point on, all garden packaging would have the green leaf background and solid bar on the bottom of the design. The solid bar's color varies between types of product and always holds the logo to the bottom and center to the package. These are done in full, process color. |

It was published during the company's 30th year in business. The design elements represented the practical and natural feel that make up the product line. I created a block print for this illustration. |

I like how the illustration of the bee came out on this package design. It was important to keep the bee friendly. I'm sure bee's don't smile, but this one does. It also is flying with a candle and goggles. The clouds here are similar to the clouds I made for the bat guano box. I intended to use clouds on each of the fertilizers illustration, in hidesight, I'm glad they weren't overused. This was printed in full process color. |
