My series on parenting is complete! If I learned anything from being a first time mom, it’s to have blueberries on hand 24/7 😂

Artwork of a hand holding four blueberries. The background is a dark blue, the hand is yellow, purple, and pink, and the blueberries are blue, purple, white, and light blue. There are loose black outlines that give the piece a pop art look. A mandala that uses turquoise, light/seafoam green, pink, purple, yellow, and black. There are loose wavy lines near the edge and more petal motifs towards the center. Artwork of blueberries that covers the entire canvas as if you were sitting with them in a jar. The blueberries look almost tie-dyed, using colors like blue, purple, yellow, and pink. There are loose black outlines that give the piece a pop art look.

Two new abstract pieces. The all blue one is supposed to be a background for something else, but I also like it as is 🤔

Quick logo redesign for the gum that lasted 2 seconds & started my love of tattoos and zebras 😂

What else should I redesign? 🤔

Oryn | A fictitious organic skincare company.

Logo work for this week’s @briefclub challenge (on IG)! I’ve been out of the designing game for a while so this was a fun warm up. 💪🏾

#blacksky #logo #graphicdesign #branding #adobeillustrator #blackcreatives
Peach colored logo design that says “Oryn.” Text below it that reads “An organic skincare company.” At the bottom there’s text that reads “Century Gothic Pro Regular/Bold” and three boxes below that (white, peach, and a copper/sienna brown). Logo design for “Oryn” The top is in black over a white background and the bottom is white over a black background. Logo design for “Oryn” in a copper/sienna brown over a beige tote bag A mock up for a thank you card; the top third has the phrase “thank you” and underneath it says “Please enjoy 20% off your next purchase with the code: TY20OFF.” There are also squiggly lines at the bottom
