:format(webp)/99designs-contests-attachments/35/35150/attachment_35150435 "Original custom art created with pen & ink. I wanted to give this design an edgier look that attracts the buyer to the bottle. After all, who hasn't bought a bottle of wine for the art on it. That was my main goal for this label.")
:format(webp)/99designs-contests-attachments/1/1286/attachment_1286266 "I created a custom letter \"A\" with a wave going through it to soften up the look for this attorney logo. The waves allow the attorney to be approachable and friendly.")
:format(webp)/99designs-contests-attachments/34/34881/attachment_34881491 "I went all out on this coat of arms design by mixing silver and gold in a tasteful manner. By highlighting the message on the front, the client was sold.")
:format(webp)/99designs-contests-attachments/36/36663/attachment_36663849 "This map design is custom illustrated from ground up. There is no clipart utilized in its creation. It is completely vector based and scalable to the size of a large building.
I wanted to make sure that the map communicates cohesiveness. So I illustrated everything to make them go together more naturally. This allows each building to face the direction it should instead of relying on poorly designed clipart just scattered on a map.")

:format(webp)/99designs-contests-attachments/35/35226/attachment_35226228 "I created these illustrations from scratch for a 40th Anniversary. The design on the left was the one selected by the client.")
:format(webp)/99designs-contests-attachments/1/1297/attachment_1297539 "Postcard design with custom background. I went with a \"CLUB\" vibe style to grab attention from a specific crowd of attendees.
The design overall is simple and clean making it easy to read. The background was created to look like a speaker playing music. With the rays of the sound coming from left to right, the postcard is easy to follow the information provided.")

Shown is the design on the top as it would appear in a package. The bottom is the design as a flat image. The cookie is my photography.")
:format(webp)/99designs-contests-attachments/1/1331/attachment_1331072 "Custom artwork for t-shirt design. I took a photo of an old cross and changed the design so that it does not look like it matches a specific Christianity. I kept the iron look of it so that it looks strong.
I wanted to give an edgy yet elegant feel for men and women, so I decided to use two fonts that normally would oppose each other. On the back of the tee, there is yet another font used in the verbiage that flows through the shape of Africa. I made this copy flow seamlessly from line to line.
I finalized the design with a subtle fleur background.")
:format(webp)/99designs-contests-attachments/1/1282/attachment_1282976 "Custom label design created from scratch for an Australian winery that will be sold in the Chinese Market. The cherry blossom illustration is custom created to give a Chinese \"feel\". I added the country to make sure that they knew it is an Australian wine.
This free-flow die cut label looks beautiful against the rose color of the wine inside the bottle.")
:format(webp)/99designs-contests-attachments/34/34972/attachment_34972565 "Canine illustration custom designed. I was going for a simplified icon that can be used as an avatar. The circle of the monocle matches the circle shape of the final design, and red grabs the attention.")
:format(webp)/99designs-contests-attachments/1/1352/attachment_1352794 "Custom photography and layout of cover design.
I wanted to give the feel of a design for a \"REAL\" musician. So I found a friend who owns a Hofner guitar and I did a custom photoshoot of it. Paul McCartney is well-known for his Hofner bass guitar, so this worked perfectly just having a Hofner.
I did some layering work for the background to grab the eye of the younger generation, and I utilized a cleaner, more readable font for the cover to grab the attention of the older, traditional musicians.")
