Getting Ready

lovetype:

I was cleaning out all my junk in preparation for moving to Den Haag when I found a small collection of nibs and calligraphy stuff in an old suitcase my grandmother once owned. Although she was an amazing artist, I never knew she liked calligraphy. This is my first crack at some script. I think the ink is too watery or something. That or I have no control, probably both. I really love the textures and the way the ink sits up on the paper. Thanks Gran!

Because the night

Always been a fan of this illustration style. Very Daniel Clowes-esque.

Here is another illustration for Petplan’s Puppy Guide, published by Sunday Publishing. One of the features concerns “puppy parties”, which puppies attend at vets’ surgeries to socialise with other dogs and people.

Whimsical, colorful, and fun illustrations from Lab Partners, a design couple from Northern California.

Another typography project for my internship at Ruche/Threadsence.:)

I have some great news! (Well, I was told at the beginning, but haven’t been quite sure since nothing has been mentioned since I started in December.) I am officially getting hired at Ruche/Threadsence at the end of my internship! I’m super excited! It was going to be based on how I do during my internship, and I guess I’m doing awesome because they’re hiring me. I’m ecstatic.

Adorable illustrative wedding invitation suite designed by Anna Hurley.

I designed this month’s desktop wallpaper for Ruche! I illustrated everything and the background image is a photo I took of my dad’s love letters to my mom when they first married and moved to the U.S. Isn’t that romantic?

Wonderful typographic shirt design by Jolby & Friends

Had fun making a few typography pieces over at my Ruche internship. I made two other pieces, including a re-design of my Marilyn Monroe piece earlier, so stay tuned! I might get these printed and sell them in the Ruche shop!
