Client:
Honesty Seeds

Description:
Honesty Seeds, a cannabis seed grower, and distributor hired me to create a fun seed character for their new logo to drive their packaging and marketing.
We had a lot of fun exploring different attitudes and poses for the character, and ended up going with something friendly and a bit goofy. I used a traditional font and banner design to give it an organic feel.

My first toy design! I was hired to design the turn-around illustrations for these four zombie figurines that were modeled and hand-painted for gift shops. Get them at BadAssBiters.com#toydesign #zombie #art #illustration #toy @concept New Artwork From Instagram

One of the coolest projects I had the privilege to work on last year I can finally share: I was hired to create concept illustrations for a series of zombie figurines. I had to draw turn-arounds of the characters which were later used to sculpt the characters – here were the front views of the two kid zombies.⠀#art #illustration #character #concept #toy #freelance #FlylandDesigns New Artwork From Instagram

Coconut Joes Sunscreen T-Shirt and Branding

Client:
Coconut Joe’s Sun-care Products

Description:
Coconut Joe’s hired me to update their branding, and create this colorful, beach-themed t-shirt design to promote their line of natural sun-care products.
After we redesigned their logo, we conceptualized a few different beach t-shirt designs before moving forward with this illustration focusing on a sea turtle swimming in a reef. The client wanted a fun, light-hearted look that they could take to conventions and sell in their shops.

Julius Caesar cartoon character I created for a logo – if I remember anything from 8th grade English, it's that he was always lit up.⠀#art #illustration #characterdesign #mascot #freelance #FlylandDesigns New Artwork From Instagram

Hard Rock Daddy

Client:
Hard Rock Daddy

Description:
Custom logo design I created for the rock music website Hard Rock Daddy of a mohawk doting skull with wings.
The client wanted something iconic and with a lot of character, so that we could later create a storyline with the mascot in different situations for t-shirts and other promotional items. The mohawk is a signature trait of the owner of the brand – we made it a vibrant blue, which will be carried out through all of the website’s branding.
We cycled through several different compositions and angles until we got it just right.

Silk-screen design of a skeleton hand holding a rose I designed for a t-shirt. This is about as much of my feminine side as you’ll ever see! Created for a fitness brand of apparel to be sold at their gyms and front their website.⠀#art #illustration #skeleton #rose #feminine #tshirt #freelance #FlylandDesigns New Artwork From Instagram
