I create brand identities that allow small business startups to capture the attention of their audience, make an impression in their community and realize their dreams. I also work with clients to create custom fine art or digital illustrations to suit their particular project vision.
My name is Kristine Palmer. I am a designer & illustrator living in Reno, NV. Design has been a lifelong passion of mine, it’s impact is woven throughout our lives, and it’s so wonderful to be involved in creating meaningful design on a daily basis.
Over the years I’ve worked with many clients from a variety of industries. Ranging from online ventures to brick and mortar establishments, non profits to large scale developers, and fellow creatives.
I believe in the world changing power of design, because of this I have passionately served my local chapter of the AIGA since 2011. First as student chapter President, then as chapter Secretary, and most recently, chapter Vice President.
• My favorite color is purple
• My wedding was on Halloween. In a cemetery. With our guests in costume.
• Last read It’s Okay to Laugh. And Crying is Cool Too by Nora Purmort
• Favorite movie: The Neverending Story
