Fall {illustration}




Here are a few illustrations I did for the Union-Tribune this fall. I'm lumping them together because I have been slacking in posting my work lately. It's a busy time of year!
The cello/leaf illustration was for our Fall Arts Preview section. The raccoon garden thief illustration was for a story about varmints in your garden. The wine bottle skyline illo was for our weekend section on the San Diego Bay Wine and Food festival. More illos to come - I've been a busy girl!

Artful Business Cards {letterpress}



We printed these beautiful cards recently for a client that has a local faux finishing business. Her work is amazing and ranges from european plasters and decorative painting to actual art for your walls in the form of murals. See her facebook page here for some beautiful pictures of her finished walls and her personal artwork which is even more stunning.

I designed her logo to look like a stencil she might use in some of her work. The flower is a Rose of Sharon, her favorite, which is very similar to a hibiscus -my favorite. I think this business card is one of my favorites too!
