Local Supply
Local Supply, a local artist co-op boutique, reached out to me for a custom illustration of their store’s mascot, Rosie, a roseate spoonbill. Some of my artwork was featured in the store, so it was a huge honor to be able to leave my mark on such an impressive community of local talent.
I developed my unique illustrative style over the course of the pandemic, drawing all of my friends’ pets after finally receiving my prized possessions: an iPad, an Apple Pencil, and Procreate.
The final illustration was used as a unique brand mark used on various collateral for the store on social media, stickers, and other merchandise. No one tells you how cool it is to see your work as a physical product for the first time. This is a project I’ll never forget.
Curate: Women’s DEI Conference
When the founder of Curate, a women centric DEI conference, approached me to create a custom illustration that would serve as the visual centerpiece for their event branding - I was absolutely dumbfounded!
As a designer passionate about telling authentic stories, I felt deeply honored to contribute to a conference that uplifts women and champions diversity, equity, and inclusion.
Seeing attendees engage with my work during the event was such a cool experience. This project was a huge personal milestone for me and came with some of the coolest merch I’ve ever seen! I’m still so grateful for this amazing opportunity.
Letter it Out, Vol. 2
I had the honor of being a featured artist in Letter It Out, Vol. 2, a community art book led by Baton Rouge muralist Jenn Lee Hester. The collection brings together local artists who bravely and beautifully letter their insecurities—and the ways they move through them. Each piece offers encouragement, honesty, and a reminder that creativity is often the best form of self-expression.
My contribution focused on the idea of just going for it—trusting your instincts, letting go of the need to have everything figured out, and believing that things will unfold as they should. It was a message to myself as much as anyone else.
All profits from Letter It Out, Vol. 2 were donated to the local nonprofit Hands Producing Hope/The Hope Shop, making it even more special to be part of a project that blends creativity, vulnerability, and community impact.
