ABOUT THE PROJECT-


I was commissioned to create 3 full illustrations for the Art in Animation Princess Ball event hosted by Kalamazoo Valley Community College and Olivia Grace & Company. OG&C is a group of princess party performers formed in 2017 who have donated over $100,000 in services to various non-profits, families, small businesses, and community events. All proceeds from the event went directly towards OG&C's charity fund. The purpose of the event was to help inspire young artists. Artwork created for the event was featured in a passport inspired booklet that kids could have stamped when they met the princesses.

ABOUT THE PROJECT-


Artwork commissioned by the Grand Rapids Comic-Con to be used for promotional materials such as flyers and program booklets, as well as exclusive VIP T-shirts for the event.


The client allowed creative liberty in regards to the design and subject matter. My concept for the piece was to feature the comic-con's chicken mascot, "Static Squawk", in a comic book style. The final illustration was designed keeping in mind the additional graphic design and text information that would be added by the designers at GRCC.
