Float On - A Lofi Playlist
For this playlist I really wanted to capture the idea of lo-fi and the popularity it has gained in the last ten years. I had never attempted to illustrate in this style before. It requires details but simplicity at the same time. Plus the consideration of lights and shadows.
I pulled from so many different pieces of pop culture and sources of inspiration, this scene I was illustrating had to seem real, so it needed real references.
This has so many hidden eggs in it, I hope one day someone can spot them all. Or a majority of them. If you spend about five minutes with it you will see
This project was my very first vinyl. A real vinyl. A sleeve, the center cuts, everything. Designing album artwork is always an honor, but when the band actually wants to make real vinyls and your artwork is all over it, it’s really exciting.
Mind Over Matter
Chromadepth
This show poster was specifically unique. The show involved a lot of visuals and Chroma-depth glasses, which basically take the spectrum of colors and enhance them through the lenses. Kind of like 3D glasses, but more rainbow.
I wanted the poster to reflect this, and I also wanted someone looking at the poster with glasses on to get the vibe of the show, even if they missed it.
For the final piece I did screen print an 18x24 poster on iridescent paper, so that all the elements of the poster were reflective shimmered.
Lemonade Social
Lemonade Park, a local Kansas City music venue hosts a weekend music concert featuring local music, drinks and art. I was tasked with creating the driving visuals for the event.
