IL: Kansas City Light Rail.

This illustration is not presenting an opinion about the light rail. Is it good? Is it bad? You decide. The light shines on the train that is moving away from the dark city. I wanted it to be simple and clear, but still colorful and semi-realistic.

IL: Book cover. Where the Wild Things Are.

IL: Spot Illustrations (0.75 x 0.75")

Illustration In Uppercase Magazine.

One of my illustrations from last year has been published in Uppercase magazine's fall issue. It is a cover for a vinyl and that illustrates a Russian band called Mary and The Bears. The song that inspired the cover is called Maria. Below is the original cover and the printed version. Check it out!

IL: American Royal II.

Here's my second version of the American Royal Poster. I decided to make it simple. Hand-written type, offset and leather background. And a cow. No horns, ready for the barbecue.

IL: Project Two. Wet world.

IL: Project One. Magazine Spread.

Below is my illustration of an article Master The Mind Body Connection. There is a line in the article that says you can improve your mood by calling a long-distance friend. My illustration is based off that. I used sculpey, string, wire and acrylic. I also used black tea for the background tint.

IL: American Royal Barbecue. 2nd place.

This poster I made for my Illustration elective is one of the two posters picked for the American Royal BBQ event that will take place in Kansas City in October. I tried to make it simple and easy to read. The icons stand for the words placed right below them.

UE: Poetic Map

This map is supposed to take you from the graphic design department to the shuttlecocks near the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art. I made the illustrations the main focus of my map to create a poetic experience. The type is hand-generated and vectored. It is supposed give the map a personal, journal-like look.







Pictures of the actual 3D book will be posted in the near future.
Check out my first website. It is for a different class (Info Arch), but I'm not confident enough to make a separate post for it.

Illustration Class: Magazine layout

The assignment was to illustrate an article from the article from the Mother Jones magazine called Fiscal Therapy.
Among other things, the article talks about the unfair taxes and the inefficient spending of the taxpayers' money. The big clay pot symbolizes a bottomless hole that people line up to throw their money into nowhere.
