For this project I was asked to create an invite design.I chose to create a design for a Mountian Getaway. I created it with a unique color palette, of the infamous travel posters of America that were presented to America during the early 20’s.

Rebranding/print Sons of libirty whiskey (sol)

-Adobe Illustrator -Print

This project was presented to me as a rebranding for a local whiskey company. For this design I created a tri-fold using information about the conmpany. I designed it with the brand’s colors of red & white, I also incorperated a wood background to compensate with the color and give the sense of a bold tasking whiskey.

TAKE A STAND At the Sons of Liberty we believe being American means taking a stand without compromise and fearlessly pursuing your dreams no matter what stands in your way. We founded Sons of Liberty Spirits to revolutionize and redfine American Whiskey and we are well on our way.
