Amazing things happen when words and images work together.

I love playing around with typography, but I also love the narration and
imagery of illustration. While a stand-alone drawing can certainly say a lot
on its own, sometimes the right words can suddenly alter the meaning and
transform the piece into something thought-provoking or inspiring.

On the other hand, words do in fact say a lot. But sometimes, a bit of image
is needed for some clarification or visual interest. That's where I come in.
I love exploring how design and illustration intertwine...how illustration
can be designed, and how design could be illustrated.

Do I have a particular style? Yes and no...
Yes, meaning that I enjoy making things clean and easy to read, I tend to be
more minimal than overloading, and a lot of my work is pretty friendly to the
eye. My style does change...err...adapt quite a bit depending on my client.
Why bring in a one-sided style when I can manipulate or modify my work to
fit the exact needs or personality of the receiver?

Basically in a nutshell, I design and illustrate to communicate.
