Printed Denim AEO

Sorry for the lack of updates on here. Just checking in to say I’m still alive. NYC, work and wedding planning has taken over my life! I’ll leave you with a new original print I created for American Eagle Outfitters. check em out.

baby shower invite

A new minted design for the Baby Shower invite challenge.

wish me luck ;)

digital painting

I installed the CS5 suite on my computer today and was having fun experimenting with digital painting. Painting on the computer is great because there is no clean up! This year,  my goal is to teach myself Adobe Illustrator (yeah it's kind of pathetic I don’t know it yet).  I’m hoping once I learn it, I will be able to submit to more Minted challenges and build up the stationary side of my portfolio. wish me luck!

one more save the date

When it comes to designing for myself, I can be extremeley indecisive.  I am always on the quest to create something “better”.  This is probably the 20th save the date option I made for our upcoming wedding.  We are not actually using it, instead we are going to experiment with laser cutting (yay for having a creative fiance with access to amazing tools!) I thought I would post this anyway, although I don’t love the design… I really am trying to let go of my perfectionism, one step at a time ;)
