Her Ladyship

A little peak at my work in progress. It will be sent out as a promotional mailer, so let me know if you'd like one too!

Food Poisoning

The latest post for Hannah B. Gregus's and my blog, Notes to Self. I got food poisoning the night before my first job interview in Seattle. Needless to say I did not get the job. 

Eleanore's

This is the beginning of a little project I've been working on. The food and tea/coffee menus are finished and I chose Mesa White from Neenah's Environment collection for the paper. I'm making a muffin box and a gift bag with the tulip petal pattern. I'll post more photos when those two are printed and assembled.

Notes to Self

Hannah B. Gregus and I have started a collaborative blog called "Notes to Self". Our goal is to explore typography in poster form, using helpful little reminders to ourselves. We hope you find these notes helpful and insightful and that you like our typography!

Buds

This is one of my favorite color schemes. It's based on a sketch I used for my first practice repeat pattern you saw in an earlier post.

Tea for the Missionaries

My Mom told me that when she was little, people would save their used tea bags to donate to the missionaries. As a missionary kid I never received such donations, but thought it was so funny I had to illustrate it. Though, I guess I can relate a little; being a recent college grad, I do reuse my tea bags two or three times to get my moneys worth. 

Portrait

This is a painting I did over the weekend of my friend Michelle and her grandmother. Watercolor on Arches paper. 

Repeat Pattern

I made my first repeat pattern! It's not a very exciting illustration, I admit, but I'm really excited! There will be lots more to come.

Fleurs de Provence

Fini! I'm considering making more and selling them on Etsy. Thoughts?

Butterfly Bush

Here's a sneak peek at the project I've been working on. It's a series of illustrations for a seed starter kit. Inside is a terra-cotta pot, peat pellets and various seeds for each box. I began the project in my production design class and recently began making alterations and adding more boxes.
