Rochester Academy of Music and Dance

This is a logo I designed for a music academy in Rochester, MN. According to the client, Rochester is well-known for its geese, and they wanted to incorporate a goose into their logo. 

I kept the logo clean and bold, so it would reproduce well in flyers, business cards, and so on. A small business needs to watch its bottom line carefully, so I gave them something that would still look good even on an inexpensive, black and white photocopy.

I also created an alternate logo for them, below. This one is a little more playful. I designed it close to square, for use as a Facebook page logo, or for other online use.    

Wedding Shower Invite

This wedding shower invitation let me branch out from the style of work I typically do in a day. I love the damask patterned background, and the rich wine red (one of the couple's wedding colors).

The names and personal information have been changed.

I was asked to do this design as a branding concept for Hopalicious, a beer made by Ale Asylum.
My boss had this design put onto a t-shirt. The idea was that bartenders could wear it to generate interest in the beer.

A fantastically popular brewery out of Madison just made its way up to the Fox Valley. I designed a half-page ad that went into one of the local, free "nightlife" magazines.

It was challenging and fun to create this design. I tried to capture the brewery's darker persona.
The best part was when I heard how much the brewmaster loved my work.
