Merchendise Art for

Watermark Books & Cafe

Watermark Books & Cafe hired me and my branding studio to aid their small business branding with some illustration design by creating so art for their merchandise. The goal being to attract new customers to the store for a special independent bookstore day promo as well as increase their engagement with their current customer base, plus of corse, to make money selling the product. I think it's safe to say the project was a HUGE success; all 20 puzzle sold out the first day, before even counting the online orders! The success of the illustration literally paid for itself and then made a massive profit for Watermark in both direct and indirect sales and excited on top of that! Watermark Books & Cafe must have agreed with me about success of the project because I was invited back to do the same thing for their holiday and Black Friday store promotions!

Brand Identity and Murals

Wichita Public Library

The Wichita Public Library hired me as a brand designer to fulfill two goals. The first was to use some illustration design brighten up the grey wall in the Library's staff room. By adding some color through some murals, I could help make the library a better place to work. The second goal was to help increase the visibility of the Wichita library's new building through adding some illustration to their small business branding. By creating some art that could be displayed on the library's windows over looking a busy city intersection.

We have received nothing but delight and compliments from staff and the community. These additional touches to the library have provided personality, warmth, and magic in our library space.

I was hired by the Unicorn Theater in Kansas City as an illustrator/ brand designer to create promotional work with digital illustration to be used to draw crowds to the Unicorn theater for their 50th season. Each work corresponds to one play in the season schedule and would function as a poster, art for the program and a general promotional image that could be used to advertise in print and online. The art was such a success in ingaging customers, I've been invited back to do the same job for next season!
