GRAPHIC DESIGN
I have worked professionally in graphic design on all levels. I have worked in both retail and office environments. I have handled projects from conception to completion. Projects that I have been the lead designer on have garnered industry awards, such as the Erik Hoffer award and the IPPY (Independent Publishers) Award.
 |  I was asked to make the promotional image for the 2022 CSCC After Party to fit the 1980's theme. This is what I came up with. |  Prior to its renaming to The RI Anime Expo, the same show was called Otaku Con. I did the poster art, logo, design, and support materials for that show. My inspiration was Hokusai and Sumi-E brush paintings. |  This was going to be another convention for Altered Reality, but it didn't happen. In this case, I drew each character separately to be used for oversized cutouts that would have been printed and lined the entrance of the show. They would have also been used for badges, signs, banners, and other materials. I did the art, designed the logo and all the other materials that went unused. |  This is my current banner stand that I use for signings and comic con appearances. The art is the cover art from a Tick Free Comic Book Day issue that I did. |  2022 is the 10th Anniversary year for Rhode Island Comic Con. I did the art and design. In this case, all of the elements were drawn on separate layers completely, so they could be moved and maneuvered for different design needs that are portrait and landscape. |
