Hippie Juice Logo Design
For this project, I was tasked with delivering both a custom logo and a promotional illustration/poster for a start-up looking to make a bold visual impact. The client needed a brand identity that was simultaneously vintage and modern, playful yet refined—a direction that called for strong conceptual thinking and a cohesive visual language across both deliverables.
I began by working closely with the client to clarify the mood and brand values from a loosely defined reference board. Through iterative development, I designed a logo that balanced timeless typography with distinctive forms to ensure memorability and brand recognition. The final logo was delivered in a full suite of formats for print and digital use, and vector-optimized for scalability and professional consistency.
In parallel, I developed a detailed promotional illustration that echoed the logo’s tone while introducing dynamic elements for social and poster-based marketing. Composition, color, and character design were carefully considered to maintain visual harmony with the brand identity, while offering enough visual richness to stand alone as a key promotional asset.
This project demonstrates my ability to deliver complete branding solutions—from conceptual development through to final artwork—tailored precisely to a client’s vision and market goals.…For this project, I was tasked with delivering both a custom logo and a promotional illustration/poster for a start-up looking to make a bold visual impact.

Pet Portraits
This ongoing series of digital pet portraits explores the balance between photorealistic rendering and emotional storytelling. Each piece is meticulously hand-painted in Adobe Photoshop using reference photos I capture myself, allowing for greater control over lighting, form, and personality.
While these works serve the functional purpose of bespoke commissions—providing clients with a deeply personal keepsake—they are also an exercise in mastering texture, anatomy, and the individual character of each subject. Particular focus is placed on the subtleties that define an animal’s identity: the posture, expression, and minute shifts in fur direction that contribute to a true-to-life representation.
This series is a convergence of technical precision and intuitive observation. The aim is not just to depict a pet accurately, but to evoke their unique presence in a way that feels both intimate and enduring.…This ongoing series of digital pet portraits explores the balance between photorealistic rendering and emotional storytelling.

The Old Dough Hook Pizza Co.
I created a logo and branding for a mobile pizza company specializing in functions and events. The process began with discussions with the client to determine the key points such as demographic, intended use of assets and projected brand identity. This was followed by extensive research of similar competition, to allow the creation of a unique and recognizable brand, and the vehicle that was to serve as the company's base. Knowledge of the vehicles aesthetic was important in order co-ordinate the branding and make the project work.
An extensive series of sketches were then used to develop ideas. These were refined and the most successful ideas were sent to the client for feedback. This allowed the further refinement of ideas into several more successful designs with the implementation of suggested fonts that were then sent back to the client for their final decision.
I designed the vinyl wrapping for the vehicle keeping in mind the important information such as title, function and contact details. The necessary fonts and licenses were sourced and included in the branding pack.
The logo has been implemented on a series of assets and marketing options with great success. This includes aprons, T-shirts and business cards. The logo has also featured on a WRC rally car in 2018 and achieved a level of exposure through this medium.
