I wanted to show an ironic comparison between childish confetti and adult apathy. Meh, so it occurred.

Drawing floral wreaths gives me instant gratification. I know that's not what art is about but... hey. Expect more wreaths to come.

A few of the weekly backgrounds I've made for our Sunday Scripture readings.

Random t-shirt design that I ended up liking more than I thought I would. I can't remember the Bible verse that was behind this, but in 2 Corinthians 6:10, Paul encourages the church to remember that they are "poor, yet making many rich; as having nothing, yet possessing everything."

Fun, girly things for our annual Refresh Women's Tea Party.

Every once in awhile, our church hosts a colossal Movie Night. Big screen with projector, freshly popped popcorn, Hollywood-style original movie trailers and the whole nine yards. I'm always blessed by those who put effort into making this event so enjoyable.

These are a few movie posters Kendra and I designed together, based off of original commercials and movie trailers made by our video team.

Little "business" cards for church! Awesome surf shots courtesy of our talented photo team.

Design changes and drafts for a banner that now hangs at church. It's a timely reminder as we drive out of the parking lot that we're commissioned to do as Jesus commanded in Matthew 28:16-20. The task seems daunting, yet Jesus promises, "And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age."

The evolution of a handlettered wedding logo. Super blessed to be able to make this for a great, God-honoring couple!

Who doesn't love a good ol' Mother's Day brunch? A few invitations in their honor.

JH's murder mystery party last year was themed after various fairy tales. Super memorable evening of wit, betrayal and overly-dramatic fun! I got to make the nametags.

A few drafts I designed and submitted to an HIM conference last year. The annual conference brings some pretty rad Christian speakers to Hawaii and thousands of Christ-followers gather to worship and learn about their Savior. Nuts. Obviously, these drafts weren't actually used, but it was a good experience to try.

Various handlettering moments.

Done for a close friend's birthday. I had just started getting into the flat design hype and she really likes pencils and math. Good match, I suppose.
