I have combined my illustration and lettering skills on several playing card projects over the years, including elaborate tuck boxes and custom court cards. Inspired by the rich and storied history of card design, it's a fun challenge to put a contemporary twist on traditional themes.

Part of a series of illustrations for Mohegan Sun, an Indigenous owned and operated casino in Connecticut. Working closely with the tribal council and the creative agency overabove, each card was inspired by traditional Mohegan patterns and motifs. The court card likenesses were based on archival photographs and pay homage to prominent Mohegan ancestors. Pictured below, left to right, are Burrill Fielding (1862–1952) and Roscoe Skeesucks (1889–1950).
