I’m incredibly proud to present the very first issue of Murmuration, a magazine of solidarity and struggle in the Pacific Northwest. You can read my blog post about the work I did on editorial design and illustration here: 🔗 grafera.zone/archive/blog...

A photo of two copies of a magazine arranged on a wood surface. The first is open to a black and white spread featuring a masthead, contents, and introduction, supplemented by various borders, patterns, and illustrations of starlings. The second is closed to show a cover featuring a full color illustration of starlings in flight, with the title "Murmuration - September 2026 - Issue #1"

It's almost time for this year's Running Down the Walls! Come out and have a nice time while raising funds for the ABCF Warchest to support political prisoners. You can download the flyer for print here: 🔗 grafera.zone/archive/illu...

Event flyer that reads “Running Down the Walls, September 19 2026, PDX 5K. Meet under Tilikum Bridge East. $30 BBQ, $20 BBQ+5K. 11am check-in, 12pm race, 1pm BBQ.” The flyer is illustrated in a graphic style, with a pair of silhouetted crows atop a razor-wire-lined prison fence previously bent and broken in an escape, and currently being overtaken by morning glory vines and other foliage. It's backdropped by a crumbling watchtower against a vibrant orange sky. In the foreground, a wooden structure resembling the Snake River Correctional Institution sign has been marked with iron front arrows and broken into pieces.
