Decided to use one of my redwood tree drawings for the holiday card. Did a few variations as usual and had a hard time making up my mind which I preferred.
Deconstructed.
This was way way back and I still like the designs today. – I shot some trumpet vine greenery across the street and used the same photo image to repeat using many graphic treatments with a few fonts, colors, textures and vectors.
Just found old biz cards I made with an old Epson color printer ( the best btw ) and then plastic laminated them at Kinkos ( remember them? ) photoshop collage of my drawings, paintings and Dover 😉 – heavy duty laminate. Hand cut.
Found some of the original artwork that I used for them which is below.
What’s old is new. illustrations for holiday cards years ago.
This years holiday cards.
This is my Holiday card for 2015. Shot the Transamerica Pyramid building here in SF a few months ago.
illustration and design for Atmel Corp. Holiday 2015.
Here are a few alternate designs that did not get used.
I created these Package designs for Sephora, with 6 Disney Characters. Ariel, Aurora, Belle, Cinderella, Frozen (Elsa & Anna), Snow White. The work includes an illustration on the top of the compact lid, and then the entire box or package was thought out. They were available only on Sephora’s website and the downtown LA Disney store in Orange county, Anaheim.
I used a few existing stock Disney silhouette vector images for each, created the colors, package layouts, patterned backgrounds, the compact lid illustrations, font choices, entire box design.
The client requested a photo-manipulation to see what the mantel would look like with a dark paint or black bricks and also put a on dark wooden top. The photo on the left, with white paint is the real mantel. It also has a faux wooden top photoshopped to show what it would look like with wood, and not a painted top.
