Guitar Group Tshirt

8/19/2016

 
Picture
I play classical guitar, and our group of guitarists was wanting a Tshirt. As musicians, of course the Ts had to be black! In this design I aimed for an overall feeling of classical music, and since we usually refer to ourselves as GoG (for Gathering of Guitars), the "o" in GoG became the guitar's rosette and soundhole.

I have completed many other projects as well - will share them as I find time. And, this entire website is due for an update and overhaul...this year, hopefully! 

My first responsive Wordpress site

This month marked the creation and launch of my first responsive Wordpress site, for my wonderful health coach / yoga teacher client Betsy. Thanks to Betsy, I'm eating and living healthier, in addition to learning the ins and outs of Wordpress! 

Her site features a blog, a recipe search/sort feature,  custom health forms, and an integrated e-newsletter. She'll keep adding inspiration for healthy living to her site (along with her own delicious simple healthy recipes) so visit  www.goldenbeetwellness.com

Theatre Poster Project

6/4/2015

 
Picture
I am still alive here, busy working! My original goal was to post new projects to the blog each  month... but alas, work has been so busy, I've had to let it slide.

Here is a recent poster for the Chinese Arts Alliance. My client is talented dancer/choreographer/creative director Jen Jen Lin, and this year's theatre production featured the romantic legend of two lovers, Zhinü and Niulang, who are destined to be separated on opposite sides of the Milky Way and can only meet once a year, on July 7.  The Chinese festival based on this folktale is known as the Double Seventh Festival , or Chinese Valentine's Day,

A relatively new area of design is Facebook Headers, now that they are so visible and can be used to promote your company.

It was a privilege to create these seasonal headers for Cynthia Renée. The ring featured in this fall's header won the MJSA award for Custom Design.

When I opened an envelope from a client,
I found this sticky attached to the check, which made my day.  :)
It reminded me that intangible aspects of design work are important too-
being accessible, friendly, meeting deadlines, staying on budget.

logo for Cytoflow

4/26/2013

 
cytoflow logo


Cytoflow has developed a new compact, elegant flow cytometer.  I researched the basics of flow cytometry: a beam of laser light (often blue) is directed onto a stream of cells suspended in fluid. As the cells pass through the laser, different parts of the cell absorb light and then emit a specific color of light depending on the type of fluorochrome. Some common fluorescent markers are yellow, green, and red. The logo symbolically illustrates this process, and aims for a creative / scientific look. 

my new hangout -  the skincare aisle

Lately I've been immersed in the world of packaging, and spending a lot of time lurking in the skincare aisles of stores.  We are working on all kinds of packaging for Bullet Acne Aid - ranging from cartons to clpstrips.

my sister's wedding invite

11/16/2012

 
Picture

My chic NYC sister wanted a wedding invite which was "simple and "modern".  When I attended their wedding, held in a sweeping loft space with white orchids and grey walls, I felt that the square invite with its debossed orchid had announced the occasion perfectly. Red is the traditional color of Chinese weddings, so we added a red vellum insert.
