Peaches

Who says mold can't be beautiful?? I couldn't resist snapping a photo of these moldy peaches this morning and adding this text on.

Sweet Valley

I used my new camera to take some pictures during my weekend visit to Sweet Valley, PA. I added some text to the images to experiment with typography.

New Camera!

I recently purchased a new digital camera. It is a Nikon D90. Here is the first picture I snapped on the camera in the store. Look for new photos coming soon.

Texture Illustration

For this illustration, I attempted to create a variety of textures using different media. I limited the forms to geometric shapes in order to concentrate on creating a minimal composition that emphasized texture.

Patterns/Designs

These are just a few patterns I drew in my sketchbook. Inspired by paisley patterns and wallpaper.

Text Sketches

I've been researching and experimenting with hand-drawn text this summer. It's very fun! Here are some sketches of text from my sketchbook.

Futurist Graphic Design

Here are some additional prints that I made of the Italian feminist poems from my Senior Thesis. Again, the design of the typography is inspired by Futurist Graphic Design and visual poetry.

Studio Berg--Web Eyewear campaign

Also during my internship at Studio Berg, I worked on a team to create a promotional brochure for the Web Eyewear campaign. My main duty was editing, arranging, and creating the layout for the images inside the brochure. I also did some editing for the text of the brochure. The inspiration for this brochure was vintage Interview magazines.

Studio Berg--Vision & Art Website

During my internship at Studio Berg last summer I created a logo and some website layout ideas for a new branch off company they were planning on opening called Vision & Art. Vision & Art will become an artist management company. Here are a couple of the layouts that I created, which include the logo I designed.

Undergraduate Thesis Booklet

Along with my visual work for my Undergraduate Thesis, I also completed a written component with information about my work, inspirations, and my theme. I laid the text out in Adobe InDesign and formatted it along with pictures of my work. Here are some images of page layouts in the booklet.

Thesis Exhibition Invitations

In addition to showing my own work in the Senior Thesis Exhibition 2010 at Connecticut College, I also designed the invitations and signage for the show. Here are some images of the signs and invitations. I was inspired by vintage poster announcements that utilize a variety of fonts in a centered layout.

Undergraduate Thesis

Here are some images of my Undergraduate Thesis at Connecticut College that I completed and exhibited in May 2010. I was inspired by multiple ideas and themes, but my work concentrated on the comparison of woman and machine specifically in connection to Italian Futurism, Advertising, and Italian Feminist Theory.
