Beautx Trend Report

Magazine Publication + Trend Analysis

Project for the University of Georgia

Beautx analyzes how beauty trends and ecological concerns are at the forefront of Gen Z, making waves for both green and blue marketing appeal. The cover of the magazine places the model dead center, with leafy, tropical greens surrounding her and with minimal makeup on her face. She is meant to look fresh, striking, and in harmony with the foliage around her as a representation of how immersed the new generation is when it comes to matters of ecological concern, especially within the beauty industry.

Alpharetta Music Initiative Posters

Digital Illustration

Project for the City of Alpharetta

As interest in after-school music programs continued to decline and in the face of looming budget cuts, this project was created to inspire and recruit young musicians to join Orchestra, Band, and Chorus programs at the high school level in the city of Alpharetta. Using a visualization of the music one can make, these posters are meant to create a sense of wonder and beauty based on the movement of music; a physical manifestation of each note, and the feeling behind the artist’s work as they play. After winning two Scholastic Gold Key Awards, these limited edition prints were displayed around the local libraries and musician halls around the area before ending their rounds in the summer of 2017.

The Hidden Language of Flowers

Illustration + Screen Printing

Project for the University of Georgia

Inspired by the Victorian Language of Flowers and the impact of flora on the human psyche, the following illustrations and the resulting silk-screen prints are meant to convey the duality of human emotion through the use of flowers. Accounting for flower arrangement, color, quantity, and pairing, each petal and leaf conveys a story about the subject of the piece and the qualities they represent–isolation, vanity, secrecy, regret–and contrasts this with the delicate beauty of nature itself. The human is then lost in a sea of bloom, returning to the Earth detached from their material form to instead become a blossom themselves–a message meant to be deciphered, enjoyed, and given to another.   

Dungeons & Dragons Poster Commission

Digital Illustration

Hotel Indigo Travel Spotlight

Magazine Publication

Personal Project

Hotel Indigo is a staple of Athens and is one of the top hotels downtown, however, their business had been relatively slow due to recent construction work. In an effort to increase tourism in the area and to generate more traffic towards the hotel, these ads were created to be showcased in local publications such as Southern Distinction and Athens Magazine, both of which have a reputation as platforms that promote local businesses and who have a wide audience reach within the area and even outside of Georgia. As such, these spreads seek to highlight the unique characteristics of Hotel Indigo–from their spacious green-space and unique architectural design to their exhibit space and iconic, colorful grand piano.
