This personal project began as an exploration of the line-only polygon style of illustration. I felt the almost-exact symmetry that an insect has lends itself particularly well to this style. Also, bugs are pretty rad-looking (… as long as they're not touching me). 2015
After experimenting with the style in the series above, I created this wedding announcement illustration for my brother and his fiancée. Both are native Texans, so I used native wildflowers for the garland in their wedding colors (of course). I chose to have my brother depicted in mostly angular, straight lines, while using curves for his fiancée. 2015

This series of sugar skull illustrations were created for a small charity art auction that I participated in on November 1st, 2014. I wanted to create three distinct designs. They have different ornamental assets and overall shapes, but still use the same primary colors color scheme. Pencil and ink. 5"x7"
