Digital and print materials using a new Guggenheim logo

Guggenheim Logo Redesign

, , , , ,

One of the projects for the Typography and Design course I took in Spring 2023 was a logo redesign for the Guggenheim Museum. I went through several different concepts before landing on a simple typographic logo that incorporates the New York Museum’s iconic spiral. The die cut in the business card allows designers to feature many different pieces from the museum, which can carry over to print and digital ad campaigns.

“The Wasteland” Book Cover Design

Collage book cover of The Wasteland by T.S. Eliot
I created this cover design for The Wasteland and Other Selected Poems by T.S. Eliot in Spring 2022 for the “Illustration as Design” continuing education course at SVA. The collage represents the pastiche of imagery from history and 1920s popular culture that Eliot utilized in his poetry. You can see the rest of the work I created for that course in this blog post

Plein Air 2020

, ,

In 2020 I decided I’d become a person who did plein air painting. I made a lot of bad paintings, but at the end of the year I’d started to build a habit of weekly-ish painting sessions. These are the paintings from 2020 that I feel comfortable letting see the light of day. These were all painted in Procreate. All of these, except for the daffodil painting, used the MaxPack gouache brush set.

  1. Sky Meadows Park in Delaplane, Virginia – November, 2020
  2. Woodstock, Virginia – August, 2020
  3. Daffodils in Fairfax, Virginia – April, 2020
  4. The Triangle Diner in Winchester, Virginia – November, 2020
