This was a fun early woodwork/laser cut project I did when I was first learning to laser cut.

This was my first exercise in playing with text-based illustration. I used a helmet from the game Dragon Age: Inquisition for the frame and filled it with character names/items/etc.

Throwback to the first magazine concept cover I made in 2014. Good to remember where you started.
The FireAid benefit concert is tonight. Many great artists there, some great merch too. Net proceeds go to FireAids wildlife relief efforts, or you can donate online.

'Critical Space' - Samantha Goodman.
She asked me to create the poster for the show.
The show was about human nature - the good and the bad. These oil paintings captured everyday scenes depicting candid perspectives of life.

Decided to stick with simplified letter forms to keep it approachable.

Redesign needed to be adaptive, as the old one wasn't exactly fit for that. They also wanted to aim for a more adventurous, positive vibe.
