Today I’m giving a lecture to the @adg800 on the “history of graphics.” Whatever that means. Here’s a sneak peek at some of my slides. . . . . . . . . #lecture #graphicdesign #adg800 #artdirectorsguild #design #designlecture #historyofdesign (at Los Angeles, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CHLV2kxl2y8/?igshid=39yzamsbhm8h

A friend of mine had a really badass picture of herself with this VOTE message and I had to draw it (with a little of my own flair added). 👑🔥❤️🤍💙 VOTE! Make a plan and vote! Vote early, if you can! . . . . . . . . . . . . #vote #vote2020 #election2020 #election #voterregistration #voter https://www.instagram.com/p/CGqpaeMFDSw/?igshid=epmusxf1n15f

Why Women Kill is getting me through recent events. Lucy Liu’s lines and delivery is everything. https://www.instagram.com/p/CFWPAbIlFgK/?igshid=5cwhwsk94eaw

Hey, did you notice Procreate really upped its brush game? Been a minute since I played around, but definitely enjoying the updates. . . . . . . #lettering #procreate #type #design #letteringart #smoke https://www.instagram.com/p/CDDRf6XlYIz/?igshid=crsxv3m1xaoi

Today is my niece’s birthday! At ten years old, she requested a Mermaid/Uncivirn “logo” for her bedroom door, and I never turn down a good design brief. Presenting Rorey’s Mermicorn. . . . #mermaid #unicorn #mermicorn #hippocampi #logo #logodesign #sticker #design #illustration #stickerdesign #graphicdesign https://www.instagram.com/p/CANpR17lwge/?igshid=1ag0mfd5drvbm

My sister-in-law @mk.cookie got me this sketch book of drawing prompts for Xmas because she liked my interpretations of the #inktober prompts. I’ve decided to honor that by combining prompts into spreads. This one is “grappling hook” and “shepherd.” Thanks, MK! . . . . . . . . #drawing #sketch #coloredpencil #drawingprompts #illustration #sketchbook #sketchbookdrawing #micronpen https://www.instagram.com/p/B7JYXbUlUrM/?igshid=3we20438pre
