Based off of an unusual photograph I had seen, ‘The Pierced Man’ presented himself as a challenge when it came to illustrating the many details of his face. The end goal was to express in color, one of many of Itten's color theories of contrast.

This hand-inked piece was created as a poster back drop for jazz writer/performer Michael K. Later brought into Photoshop and painted, "Moment in Time" reflects the basic underlying meaning the musician wanted to have implied.

By combining gradients with vector based line models, this battery charger was created solely from Adobe Illustrator in order to showcase my talents as a photo-realistic illustrator.

H.R. Giger is one of the many influential artists that has affected my work. His ability to create a world unimaginable to most and give it a dark, romantic presence only gives way to the passion that lies beneath. The illustration to the left would later be used as a mock poster to introduce his presence as an on campus speaker. My goal was to simplify his work into a line drawing that only pushes the concept that the concept itself is what cause fear, not the grotesqueness of horror.

This illustration is one of my assignments using typography to create a visual message. It contains many of my favorite fonts.

My first and only illustration for a t-shirt design. It's message and look is intended for males aged 16 - 24.
