Making my mark on the world.

I first came up with my Ink & Illustrator brand when I was in a sophomore Web Design class - I had a lot to learn (and always will!) It began with the concept of a drop of ink or paint and integrating fine art skills with graphic design. The original logo evolved from one awkward, symmetrical black drop to overlapping drops drawn to the curves of the golden ratio; my closeted attachment to the magical colors of bisexual pride brought things to life.

Still, I knew I would evolve again one day, and as of 11/11/2020, my branding has leveled up yet again. I used swirling, connected lines and united shapes to capture the magic and sensation I feel when I create. I have selected an official color palette to match my creative “aura,” which includes “cosmic latte,” the average color of the universe, and an above average neutral. :)

As I try to explore my skills and creative whims, I am branching into Halcyon Artistry as an overarching, more personal image of myself while keeping Ink & Illustrator as a space for more career-focused work. Halcyon Artistry represents me with a waxing moon and abstract initials forming the wing of a bird signifying the Halcyon of Greek mythology; the flowing lines, mystic colors, and celestial bodies are a motif across the ways I share my work.
