Designed for Freepik Company.  I was in a pop-art mood and love the pin-up looks of the 1950s, so I decided to make and use this image on my resume as a fun, illustrated sense of myself.

Designed for Freepik Company.  This dog was very fun to create and I thought it would be cute for him to think, "Throw me a bone!", especially when I am currently using this image on my resume when applying for new opportunities! ;-)

Designed for Freepik Company

Designed for a sponsor of various motorcycle events throughout Illinois.  The original photo is a vintage photo of Evel Knievel with Bernie's face superimposed, it is intended to look a bit blurry like the original photograph.  I added extra background, text and logo.  This was produced into vinyl stickers and other promotional items - it was praised by the Bernie Sanders campaign and the Artists for Bernie Sanders Facebook group.

T-Shirt Design for psychobilly/punk music band, the "Ghouliganz." Their first song written is named "Bride of Stein" so they wanted to showcase this on their band shirt design.  They also had a budget limit for printing their shirts.  I absolutely loved this random photo I found online, so I used it as inspiration to create a stylized and simple, 1-color, cost-effective T-shirt print.  Two months into production, the small, local Chicago band has sold over 250 shirts.

POOL/BILLIARDS TEAM SHIRT DESIGN - A pool team wanted a team shirt design, their Captain's nicknamed "Mysterio" so they wanted to show that in the design and his top coaching line: "Use Pocket Speed!" This was not used commercially, so I used the body of Marvel's Mysterio character and superimposed an image of an 8-ball as his dome-shaped head. I used a futuristic font and monochromatic colors that matched the image.

I met the owner of Rachel Screen Printing at a trade show in 2018.  He mentioned that his current designers had more "masculine" design aspects and that he was looking to produce a new, softer T-Shirt line with a "woman's touch." He asked me to come up with some designs for his business but all designs had to include room for inserting namedrops, based on the locations of where the shirts were sold.  I designed and sold these images to him in January 2018 and have so far produced 2500+ shirt sales in the small town of Portsmouth, VA.

KIDS IN THE HALL "MY PEN!" T-SHIRT DESIGN - I designed this to be a small run T-shirt design and sold at the Westfest street festival in Chicago in 2016.
