Journal Design
Between the spring of 2015 and the fall of 2019, I produced a journal called Ink & Letters. After publishing the first two issues alone, it was evident that I needed some help. I asked Dr. Brent Newsom to join me as "letters editor" at which point I became "ink editor"—essentially he edited copy and I art-directed. We collaborated in this format for issues 3-8. Still to this day, it's a project that I'm quite proud of. Ultimately, Dr. Newsom and I took on more administrative responsibilities, and this project had come to end.
Book Covers
I've designed several book covers over the years. These run the gamut from nonfiction, to books of poetry, to a collection of essays. Note: the cover for Black Sunday, was not ultimately used by the publisher, but I left it in my portfolio. The concept is--since it's a book about the dust bowl--to have the type appear as if it's fine dust blowing away.
Sermon Graphics
For several years, I created sermon series graphics for Collective Church, based near Ft. Worth. The challenge of these types of graphics is to encapsulate what is perhaps a 5 or 6 week study into a single image.
Skate Decks
I great up skateboarding, so it was always a dream to design a custom deck. These were commissioned by my friend Jason Smith and were for sale in OKC and on the WWW.
