Poster design for SoFar Sounds show in Culver City. Inspired by desert colors, and blended with random geometric shapes. Enjoy!

For the past many months, I've been working on an AirBNB project with my parents to update and furnish a small studio in Joshua Tree. I started a Pinterest board to brainstorm ideas around color and style.

I designed this poster for a SoFar Sounds music show taking place in Santa Monica, CA. When I started the design, I wanted to do a play on the letters in SoFar Sounds to create the abbreviation "SAMO" within, short for Santa Monica. 

I keep a Pinterest board called "harmonious hues" to keep a log of interesting color combos I'm drawn to. This helps when I'm designing to have some ideas to grab from.

I am inspired by the dreamcatchers of Native American culture. I grew up in a city that is significantly built on Cahuillan tribal land, and my father, who is a 70+ year old transcendentalist type from back in the 60s, has a strong interest in Native American culture.

In April, I collaborated with the design team on Art Direction for thredUP's May Campaign. This involved helping develop the campaign visual design, photo shoot, and designing the key shareable assets.
