The following illustrations were created as layered vector artwork. Each layer was intentionally named, then I opened the SVGs in a code editor and used those layer names to target individual elements. I lightly animated the illustrations using CSS. These illustrations could be easily turned into fun and enticing links by embedding <a> into one of the layers.

Patterns

To begin, I consider direction and scale, sketching in pencil before moving into gouache or digital design. I can work from original documents or create from scratch. Once developed, artwork is cleaned and laid out in Photoshop or Illustrator, with color separations and call-outs for specification.

I enjoy switching modes, from tight geometrics and intricate botanicals to abstract stripe sequences. I create pixel-perfect color separations for apparel and home decor. In woven work, I design through structure, using plain weave and twill variations to create subtle tonal texture.
