Permalink Fashion Taylor Shop Logo
Tailoring business that specializes in men and women clothing alterations.
The colors black and red are used to display elegance, frame showcases the logo while also symbolizing structure, and detail as the grey dashed lines represents stitching which ties frame design together. 
A serif font with variety of flowing strokes and tint of detail on both header and footer to maintain that elegant appeal. All Caps are use, thought a title case is kept, as Initial letters are larger than then rest. 
The letter ‘R’ tail has been elongated, in a way to emphasize the word ‘tailor’.
The lines that separates the Business name from the tagline are actually tailoring pins and the center shape is actually a button. So with this, is showcases important tools used for this work.
Red Stripe at bottom of card had minor shades in it to give it the appeal of a red ribbon tied around the card.
Permalink Cannafire Logo 
Designed this logo for a health business that specialize in the delivery of specific medical assistance for patients with greater needs.
The client wanted the color green to be incorporated as the letter “i” with the flame is meant to symbolize a lit lighter.
Permalink Ford Logo: Re-design: Illustrator. 
For some time I’ve been looking at the Ford Logo as most of us do when driving around, though, the rounded worn out style it has had been making the bolts in my head turn as I wonder “This logo could be better”….so at last, I put myself to the challenge today and this is what I’d envision. I feel the pointy curves would be something great for them to reflect in their newer models and make their style fresher* and more modern with a tint of elegance.
Permalink Nebula Collapse - 13x18 Poster. Illustrator.
If a Nebula collapsed in space, would it shatter into millions of prisms; spreading all its color across the universe? Perhaps it is here where color is born.
I loved the feeling and knowledge I acquired from my Humming Bird Project so I just had to put the new skill to the test again.
Permalink Humming Bird Prism - 13x18 in Poster. Illustrator.
After some time of being away from actually making artistic work, I finally took some time and built on the idea for creating a humming bird with the desire of using all its colors to the highest extend.
For this project I wanted to experiment and use different effects. I wanted to make something to demonstrate my skill and my knowledge of the graphic arts, not just making something for others to judge but as a test for myself. I wanted this project to stand out and over all I want to enjoy art again.

Permalink Jacobs Compliance Services Logo 
The logo at the top left corner was what used to be their first used logo. The problem with their first logo was that all files they had of it were low resolution, they didn’t have any original artwork for it anymore, and over all it was outdated. 
So, I modernized the design by cleaning up the compass’s stroke weight, giving it a rich color pallet, added dimension through shading, & chose a more unique font than the over-used Times New Roman. Over all, it translated far better than my clients expected and they loved the whole new appeal and color.
To give it a modern pop on paper the logo was spot varnished on all printed business card names. 
Tool used: Illustrator.

Permalink Madie Cakes Logo
So, the printshop was going to have an open house and my co-worker asked me to set up a little something for his daughter whom was going to be catering for the event. She made pastries. So, with some time to spare I began to design a cupcake to place as her logo, which then I began to transform into a rose. Without knowing, turned out that  roses was the symbol flower, which flower her father also had a tattoo of for her on his arm. Funny coincidences that work out.
