Good Magazine Illustration

Good Magazine approached me and asked if I'd be interested in doing an illustration for their neighborhood issue. Since I'm a big fan of the mag I quickly accepted. Even though it's not a neighborhood, I did my flag over Abilene, Texas. I used ornate line work and textures to create some country charm and picked the reddish-orange background to represent a Texas sunset. I decided to put a tag line in there that says "Abilene I Can Fly". After incorporating that, I knew it was complete.

Another Save The Date

Old college friend asked me to do her save the date recently. I had complete creative freedom and this was what I came up with. No concept, just nice type and excecution.

NYC to ABI








Me and a few other ACU alums that have worked in NYC were part of an art show in Abilene recently. The show was titled ABI/NYC and was received well. Me and a buddy of mine, Jeff Rogers, did the collateral. I did the ABI portion and he did the NYC. This is what I came up with for my part of the logo.

Save The Date

This is a save the date I did for some good friends of mine. They wanted it to look shabby sheik, have flowers, and it needed to have pink and gray. This is what I came up with.
