Illustrations for Print and Social Media

These illustrations began as hand-drawn pencil, charcoal, and mixed-media pieces. Some were created digitally using a Wacom tablet and others were scanned from original artworks on paper. I adapted each design in Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator, optimizing line quality, contrast, and resolution for clean, high-quality print output.

The final renderings have been used across stationery cards, tags, and other small-format printed goods, demonstrating both my traditional illustration skills and digital production workflow for print-ready assets.

 

Living Local Marketplace illustrations

Initially, my pencil sketch of three trees was adapted by Beeline Design & Communications for use as LLM's logo, to be used on outdoor signage and stationery (tags, labels, rack cards) as well as seasonal gift guides. 

I was commissioned to create a custom illustration of cranberries for a product collaboration between LLM and a local candlemaker. This has been used in product packaging that includes a candle label, tags, and promotional graphics for social media.

The trees were originally pencil sketches, converted to vector using a Wacom tablet and Adobe Illustrator. The stick figure illustrations were entirely digital.

The grouping of three trees has also been reworked as a logo for a local gift shop, Living Local Marketplace.
