Rutabaga Paddlesports web design and logo
For over 35 years, Rutabaga Paddlesports has been an authentic, paddler-owned and operated specialty shop. They sell, service and rent premier, specialized equipment for paddle sports in Madison, Wisconsin. Their website and logo needed re-branding to appeal to a younger adventurous generation. In my concept, I wanted to make the website responsive, attractive and adventurous. Opting for a modern, bold color scheme for fresh and clean look in their logo and new brand identity.
Iceland Brochure
Icelandair offers flights to Iceland and Europe from many cities in the USA. Icelandair is the primary airline of Iceland, headquartered at Keflavík International Airport near the capital city Reykjavik. Utilizing my watercolor illustrations for this brochure, I wanted to show the dramatic, unique variation in Icelandic nature. The country’s landscape is scattered with volcanoes, geysers, glaciers and lava fields - making it a perfect fairy tale place for adventurous travelers. A land of Ice and Fire.
Under Armour Marketing Campaign
Under Armor, Inc. is an American company that manufactures footwear, sports, and casual apparel. I created an Under Armor Instagram marketing campaign with the idea of showcasing a series of bold, modern, bright sport photography featuring their unique and comfortable sport clothing. The idea was to show that in Under Armour clothes you can be ready for any athletic challenge. To achieve this bold effect, I used red and purple gels and two additional studio lights in the studio set-up.

Paired with red-orange energy and bright colors, Protonic Apps is now timeless and intriguing.
