It’s been one helluva weekend. Hope everyone is doing okay after the hurricane. Here’s to a safe + healthy week of recovery.

Happy Monday. Been working on a ton of new illustrations for the SH/Co. product line… You knew it was only a matter of time before my pennant obsession made its way onto the cards. Working on my first wholesale order now (!) and getting excited to sell online in the near future… (more on both of those soon).

Also, big thanks to The Collection Event Studio for the lovely feature on my watercolor work. Check out their blog for sure; it’s chock full of inspiration + cool shop visits. This one is my fave.

Burton / Part II

Below is the final ‘table of contents’ spread I created for the Burton 2012 catalog. So excited to finally see it in print! Had a lot of fun with this one… thanks again to the crew.

Request a catalog here. (259 pages of pure awesomeness. Yes, I am biased).

Burton 2012

I am so excited to finally share a project that I have been working on for awhile now… Before embarking on this stationery adventure, I worked at Burton for 7 years. Needless to say, it was a total honor to contribute to the 2012 campaign from the other side. I designed the table of contents for the catalog using all hand type and did a bit of hand lettering for burton.com as well. Below are a bunch of the original sketches… Final catalog spread coming tomorrow!

Huge, heartfelt thanks to the crew at Burton. And congrats on another successful launch!

American Baby

I was psyched to create a second baby shower invite for my sister B + brother-in-law D (big families=multiple showers!). While the upstate shower was an all-girl affair, this one was a Jack + Jill (coed) party. I designed the invites to reflect the all-American, backyard BBQ vibe of the shower (and maybe even trick a guy or two, hah). The type, stars, + stripes were hand-painted using gouache, then scanned in for final layout.

An example of the original gouache type…
