Some Great Packaging Examples


I love the use of color and whimsey. The fun shapes suggest the soup itself while hinting at "organic" and "nature."















Beautiful design with simple concentric circles. Nice, soft color palette creates a relaxing mood.












The use of fruit imagery suspended in water indicated by air bubbles seems to say "fresh."











Chocolates often have great package designs lending a sense of luxury.






Another nice chocolates package. Based on the design, I am more inclined to believe that these are truly delectable chocolates, even if they really aren't.

Apple Festival Poster 12x18 Final


My final design for the 2010 Georgia Apple Festival in Ellijay. My goal was to create an event poster that was consistent with the nature and feel of the festival itself (cloggers, country quilts, and Georgia apples of course) but with a fresh, contemporary, and perhaps more universal appeal.

Apple Festival Poster Sketches


My goal with designing a poster for the 2010 Georgia Apple Festival is to capture the excitement of good ol' southern family fun. The Apple Festival has a definite "country" feel, and I want to embrace that aspect, but in a fresh, updated look.

Nice Poster Design Examples




Nice imagery. Successful integration of the type with its surroundings.











Great overall layout and use of space. All the information is clear and organized without sacrificing aesthetic appeal.













Cool illustration. I love the color pallete.

Uncorked: A Wine Tasting Journal

My design for a wine tasting journal. It is bound by hand; stitched into four signatures of four sheets of paper each (16 pages per signature for a total of 64 pages) and glued along the spine. Included is an area for the information of the wine being tasted and an area below for wine tasting notes or personal descriptions and review. Also included is a box to score the wines just like a professional wine reviewer does. A page is provided at the beginning to guide with the rating score.
