For my third typeface, I decided to create a condensed display typeface, called Over It. I designed three weights, bold, regular, and light.
Over It is on the page both right side up and upside down. Condensed Display Bold | Regular | LightOver It Bold - shows all the letters of the bold weight as well as numbers with yellow and purple type on a blue violet backgroundOver It Regular - shows all the letters of the bold weight as well as numbers with yellow and purple type on a red orange backgroundOver It Light - shows all the letters of the bold weight as well as numbers with red orange and purple type on a yellow orange background

I’m very proud to share my recently updated personal branding, with a new color palette, patterns, and motion graphics. The motion graphic shown was created with the new Figma motion beta.

Pixel_Cipher is the second typeface I designed. It was fun using different pixel sizes to create the three weights and figuring out how to make all the letters legible in each weight.

I had previously created two designs I really liked for the 2019 production of Network for a typography class at SVA Continuing Ed. Since then, I updated the two designs to create one coherent brand, and have expanded that visual system to a Playbill, merch, and a website.
Brand standards for network, showing the an image of Bryan Cranston yelling in blue and red, the logo I designed that is white type on a blue background, the thypefaces I used, which are different weights of Franklin Gothic, and the color scheme, which is blue, reed, white, and blackImage of my Network poster designs in frames on a street image. One poster is designed to look like a tabloid magazine cover, the other is designed to look like a propaganda poster Two images- the one of the left is of a man holding a red tote bag with the Network logo printed on it. The right is of a playbill with a simplified version of my poster design on it, on a black backgroundScreenshots of two web pages I designed. The merch page has six images of merch - the playbill, tote, hat, two tshirt designs, and a pin, the background of the page is a red tote bag blue gradient with a white border. The tickets page has a calendar with the month of January 2029 shown with the times of each show on the calendar far in red. The page has a blue to black gradient background with a white border. Both screenshots are shown on a blue background

A while back, I had designed some custom type for a set of posters. Later, I decided to finish it and make a working typeface called No Reason Regular. Later, I added additional weights of the typeface to make a family that could be used for a variety of display typography needs.
Cover image for no reason typeface, showing a repeating # and vote graphic using the type, it’s a rounded display typeface in bold, regular, and light weightsNo Reason Bold, showing all the characters in aqua on a blue violet backgroundNo Reason Regular, showing all the characters in aqua on a blue violet backgroundNo Reason Light, showing all the characters in aqua on a blue violet background

I recently took the Frankenstein book design I did for a typography class a while back and expanded it to some merch, flexing the visual system to other sizes/mediums. The design really lends itself to being on a hat and tote bag.

Saw the Odyssey and the mention of Mentor reminded me of this banger:
“Did the name Odysseus already exist before the odyssey? Or was Homer just like “this is my new book ‘the journey’ and hero’s name…Journathan”

A bunny looks across a hazy countryside, with a few trees silhouetted against a thick smoky sky. The silhouette of a house is also visible, and a dim orange sun.

Saw this advice in a bathroom stall at Spotlite and it’s so much better than anything my therapist has ever said to me that I only just now see that there’s a drawing of a dick right above it.
