hello
My best friend is having a baby. This will be her second child and it’s a boy. I was honored that she asked me to design her baby invites. For the look and feel, she wanted a California Vibe, palm trees, and a clean modern palette of greens and gold with pops of color. I told about the brand A Beautiful Mess. She took a looksie and said that’s exactly the look and feel that she wants. For privacy, I did change the names and details. The first one was the invite design she selected and the other ones were the options I wanted to share with you. Please comment and tell me which one you like best. Here is a glimpse…

Happy Independence Day!
To me the 4th of July means a time of togetherness A time of family, friends, fun and fireworks that’s The Fourth.

Hello lovelies. June has been a really busy month. I have been working on amazing projects. Before I share the projects I’ve been working on this month, I wanted to go back to March and share dance posters I worked on. I partnered with a a company called 5678 Media group to design billboard size posters for a dance competition called DANCE USA DANCE – it’s basically like the show “so you think you can dance”. I had provided them two options. They selected the one above. Here is the one that wasn’t selected…
They liked the poster design so much that we did the series in various colors. Here is a glimpse…

Fashion Collage
Love these fashion collages. You can see that patience is really an important part of this art. It’s all about hiding and altering parts of the subject and using manipulation and mixed-median in pure form. Here is a glimpse…

Hello. My life has been so busy, but I’m so thankful for all the amazing projects that I get to work on. I love all my clients and love being a graphic designer. I really do. Since my last blog, I did a little traveling to both Spain & Portugal. I hope to get to my photos soon and share all the amazing places that I was able to see. Our world is such a beautiful place! Anyways, I’m a little off topic here…
For my last project, I partnered with Jeni Castro, founder of Bronzed Bunny and the project was to create a Bronzed Bunny Look Book for potential franchise opportunities currently in California. The Bronzed Bunny specializes in organic tanning, sugaring & body scrubs. I wish we could have a Bronzed Bunny in Seattle. It all started with Jeni’s amazing photography + combination with a mix of typography. You can view the complete look book here. Here is a glimpse of the Bronzed Bunny Look Book…
makeup monday // janelle monae
Hello! It’s been a while. For the last two months, I have been incredibly busy. I’ve missed you! Over the weekend I finally watched the move Hidden Figures. I adored it. You must see it. Briefly, it was about three brilliant African-American women at Nasa during the 60’s who served as the true brains behind one of the greatest operations in history – the launch of astronaut John Glen into orbit. One of the brilliant minds was played by Janelle Monae.
Janelle Monae is An American Singer, Actress, Songwriter and Model. I absolutely love her beauty. She is so stunning. Love her classic features. She can pull off any pop of color with her beautiful skin tone. In 2012, she gained the title of COVERGIRL. She is my new beauty crush! Here is a glimpse of some of Janelle Monae’s editorial shots…
