PHOTO MANIPULATION
Puddle Harbor
Brief: make something big look small. I composited a full-size boat into a city-street puddle, blending a stock alley shot, the boat and a splash so the reflection sells the scale. Class project · Concept · Photoshop
PERSONAL WORK
Lyric Portrait
A tribute to my favorite artist. I layered his own lyrics across his portrait so the words shape his face, built entirely in Photoshop. Personal study · Fan art, not for commercial use · Not affiliated with or endorsed by the artist · Photoshop
Furniture
RioChaise Viesso
Brief: a luxury-style print ad from supplied copy. I split the sofa across six framed panels so the reader assembles the product, with the gold price card as the only color.
Home Goods
Kohler Vanity Faucet
A product ad built from supplied specs. I set the hierarchy so the product sells first, then the price drop, then the details, on a dark backdrop that lets the oil-rubbed bronze finish stand out. Spec ad · Class project · Not affiliated with or endorsed by Kohler
Beauty
Stop Cracking
Brief: fuse two animals into one ad. I merged an elephant and a walrus so its skin reads dry and cracked, then wrote the line that turns the visual into a moisturizer pitch.
Tech & Security
Peace of Mind
Brief: use the "big head" effect in an ad. The oversized face peering around the corner creates the uneasy feeling of being watched, which is exactly the problem Ring solves. Spec ad · Class project · Not affiliated with or endorsed by Ring
LEGAL MARKETING
TX Crash Kings
Logo for a Texas startup that provides marketing and consulting to personal injury law firms. Working from the client's concept, I built a crest of the Texas state shape, a crown and laurels to signal authority in a crowded market.
College Athletics
Dream Big
Brief: make something inspirational. A young high school player's silhouette is filled with East Texas A&M's Division II national championship team, the future he's playing toward.
College Athletics
Ranked #18
Made for a college teammate after he earned a national ranking. Using his own photos, I built a bold announcement graphic for social media.
