it’s that skirt w/ the big Dashiki border-esqu placement

GhostPrinted tights

featured in Urban Outfitter’’s summer catalog

Leopard Tube Top

Perfectly pink, little leopard tub top.

big-bug T shirt

Big exploded graphic bug T …. so over butterflies time to use some rad ugly bugs!

new Urban s/s print work

some tromp l’oiel stripes.

spray painted floral border.

Reef summer ‘09 design

illustrated and digitally made graphics…intended for women’s wear, but also made it’s way onto Reef.com’s wallpaper!

Fall 2 lookbook

Some prints I did! Thank you Erin for posing!!

urban summer items so far

one of my favorite items of mine in the Summer catalog!

Hand painted, water color leaves

soft water colors worked into this delicate, gentle layout to create a breezy perfect s/s top

Floral Wave Magazine Shot

one of my first originals, wavey color blocks trimmed w/ ditsy florals…made it’s way into one of the magazines!

Vintage Inspired Scarf border

inspired by vintage scarves, with a new layout.

hand illustrated feather placement print

another one of my first originals for UO, techinically drawn wings over patches of pastel…my favorite combinantion!

orignal illustrated Tribal leggings

the explosion of hand illustrated, bold graphic tights continues with these bad boys!

neon knockout Tribal print skirt

the graphic neon lines underneath is the perfect compliment to the edgy knocked out shapes on top

hand screenprinted Tribal T

nothing is more fun then lining upĀ  your favorite neons on your screen and just letting your squeegie go to town!

play on words…Dear Head

one of those little sketches that just seems to come out of no where on one of those cold winter nights when you just don’t feel like going out. guess i was feeling the effects of nature or something.

photo turned illustration - Washington Ave

this was probably one of my first explorations in illustrator, and soon after illustrator and i developed quite the relationship.

tossed birds

one of my first ever design done via photoshop…learned the beauty of the ‘apple’ + ‘option’ keys that day!

ziger-love print

another original on my own. once again executing my love of animals prints mixed with neons.
i like to call it ‘party animal’ style

Floral illustration

playing w/ proportion here, while mixing hand illustrated florals with hard graphics.

hand carved wooden anchors

hand carved / stained wooden anchor necklace with braided rope “chain”
