2024 in a Nutshell

This portfolio site is in major need of an update but life has kept me too busy to tackle it just yet so I wanted to quickly mention a few projects I've been working on when not teaching and working on non-art/design projects. Blackwater Buccaneers & Lumen PhotoVocab Game I finally self-published Lumen PhotoVocab Game. Lumen began as my 2021 MFA thesis project on game-based learning and it and my game publishing company Blackwater Buccaneers have been a major focus for me since graduating. You can learn more about Lumen at BlackwaterBucs.com . So much work goes into Blackwater. I [...]

Lumen QR Cards

Designed some QR cards for Lumen to give out at a conference I'm presenting at in a few weeks. I'm still working on setting up my game company's website [Blackwater Buccaneers] and I wanted to include my artist site and contact details plus a few specific links for this community so I created a custom Linktree for Lumen. By keeping the design simple I'll be able to reuse these in any setting. If you'd like to specifically keep up with Lumen check out it's Linktree (which just so happens to link to my other Linktrees, lol) at Linktr.ee/LumenTheGame. Is it [...]

Lumen, My MFA Thesis Exhibition

My MFA thesis exhibition is a wrap! I was super nervous about my show but it turned out great and everyone I spoke with told me they enjoyed playing the game. It was great to see strangers playing together and having a good time. Thanks to the pandemic and COVID it's taken a long time to wrap up this project. There's definitely still room for improvement but I think this is a pretty great start. Visit this blog post to read more about my MFA exhibition and Lumen, the card game/teaching tool I created.

Golden Thorn Style Guide

Golden Thorn now has a style guide. I've been going through my work from the last few years and decided to make a style guide for this brand just for fun. Golden Thorn was created for an entrepreneurship assignment in a graduate design studio class. I designed several logo variations, stationery, a website, and an art booth setup. I originally planned on using the brand for my art sales but then decided it was too formal for me. I'm still really happy with how the logo and design of everything came out. I invested a lot of time in this [...]
