Invitation Design
Client: Visible Grace
Year: 2011
Project Role: graphic design, photo retouching & manipulation
Software/Media Used: Illustrator, Photoshop
[Save-the-dates, invitations, fundraising info card, RSVP card for a non-profit’s annual fundraising banquet & auction. The goal of Visible Grace is to build a home & school to house & educate orphaned Kenyan children. The fundraising info card announces the commencement of the groundbreaking process. For this reason, the visual theme is tied to the landscape of western Kenya. I manipulated the photographs & chose the typefaces to create an aged paper & humanist era letterpress style. The save-the-date incorporates a woodcut texture I created as well as an image of an acacia I vectorized. The invite cards incorporate images I manipulated to resemble aged photography.]

Invitation Design
Client: Visible Grace
Year: 2010
Project Role: graphic design, photo retouching, illustration
Software/Media Used: Illustrator, Photoshop, charcoal pencil
[Save-the-dates, invitations, fundraising info card, RSVP card for a non-profit’s annual fundraising auction. The mission of Visible Grace is to help alleviate poverty by empowering orphaned Kenyan children through education. A hand-drawn plant theme & color scheme was chosen to reflect the colors & vegetation of the Kenyan landscape, while illustrating the organization’s goals of provision & growth. I chose a vine-like accenting typeface to complement the organic theme.]
