Gallery Signage for Art Works Downtown
This large 35" x 40" sign was designed in Adobe Illustrator to hang in the front window of the main gallery at 1337 Fourth Street to attract those on the street inside. It worked very well when it was first installed, as there were many people who saw it and ventured in, stating they never knew there was an art center in San Rafael.

Art Works Downtown Identity Brochure
This tri-fold brochure was designed in Adobe Illustrator, with images edited in Photoshop. I worked with key staff and the Board of Directors to rebrand their design from a previously outdated Brochure. The look was to use the current website branding and colors.
Inside of AWD Identity Brochure
For the inside of the brochure, I suggested we put the photo of the building along the inside, with little photos to show what happens inside the center. This concept worked well and because it is a long image, this also works well as their Facebook Cover Image.
AWD Branding + Art Walk Identity
The 2nd Fridays Art Walk happens every month in downtown San Rafael. I was responsible for designing and updating the monthly, trifold brochure for Art Walk, which included 20+ venues along 4th Street, plus sponsors and other special events. It was always different and always a challenge to complete by our deadline. I worked with outside printing vendors, photographers and artists who would supply files for the even map.
AWD website
I was responsible for web content management in Joomla 1.5. This is page that shows 2 side modules that I added graphics into (featured artist and featured exhibit) and it also shows the graphic I created for the building that is also used on Facebook. I was trying to be consistent with the branding and identity across the board as we changed the collateral.
Facebook Graphics + Social Media Management
This is the graphic I created for the new business collateral at AWD. It works well as a Facebook Cover Photo. I also created a new Twitter account (@artworks1337) and used this modified small square redesign as the Twitter avatar.
Art Works Downtown "Thank You" Card
The Founder of Art Works Downtown wanted a simple, but elegant modification of their logo and tag line on an A5 notecard for sending thank yous to donors, visitors and volunteers. After several attempts, and speaking directly with Mrs. Thelen, I was able to understand that she wanted it to feel like a ribbon was flowing down to the "Thank you". This graphic continues to be used in their monthly newsletter.
Valentine's Day Version of Thank You
Building-wide Exhibit Map for Event
This was a tri-fold Event Guide for the "Art on the Farm" fundraiser in 2012. It had exhibits on two floors in 5 unique gallery spaces. This guide was available to all who attended so they could locate and view all the art.
