Holiday Cheer

Happy Holidays and a Joyous New Year to everyone this year! Here is the holiday card I shared with friends and family this season.


Portraiture

I was commissioned this past December to work on a fantastic project, a family portrait for one of my talented professors from the illustration graduate program at SVA that he and his family would use for their annual holiday card.



The cards were a hit! I'm proud to say everyone was extremely pleased with the outcome, it was great to work on such a personal project, the little details in this piece were the best part!
For more information about the card check out the Richmond's bog post about the project here: Two Plus Us.

Hand Lettering - Workshop

One of my favorite artistic hobbies is working on my hand-lettering skills. I think hand-lettering is a beautiful, historically significant and fantastically diverse art form. I've been working lettering into my designs more and more lately and here are a few of my more recent samples.



I was also invited recently to teach a hand-lettering workshop for the talented design students at Miami University. I worked with 2 classes creating a Halloween themed assignment (as the workshop was held in late October.) I had a wonderful time and was very impressed with the work that came out of the classes. The students did a great job!
