All I Ever Wanted



New design for a repeat client. "All I Ever Wanted" is something my client hears often, so it was only fitting that it become the name of the business. The basic concept was based off of the interior design and atmosphere, a more sophisticated, feminine, and modern salon.

petsontees.com advertisement for Animal Sheltering Magazine

HSUS magazine is a national magazine that is viewed by animal welfare organizations as well as their coordinators. The purpose of this ad was to encourage these organizations to open partner stores with petsontees.com to help raise funds to support their cause. The concept was to use an everyday situation and try to illustrate it with as few elements and copy a possible. The idea is that there is a list of needs that a particular animal shelter or organization has and the note stuck to it is written by someone else suggesting they visit petsontees.com to receive help getting those items. It's a problem with an offered solution.

More logo fun!




 Jensen Apparel has been looking for a way to help animal care organizations through multiple platforms, beginning with petsontees.com. The apparel company has segmented itself as a fundraising tool for these animal organizations and is using apparel and other products to help produce revenue. The next step for this company is to expand once more with freedogtag.com–under construction and offer dog tags to consumers for the cost of shipping and handling. That makes this product FREE which is unheard of in this economy. When compared to national pet supply retailers it's more than half the price of other id tags. This is the logo process for Jensen's new project. The concept? 
Well… dog tags, of course!

Awareness ad


This particular ad is still under construction, but the purpose is to encourage dog adoption in the month of October. Animal welfare organizations and supporters alike want to make the public aware that adoption is few and far between and more animals are being euthanized as opposed to being adopted.

Partners of petsontees.com will receive ads like these to fundraise for their cause–helping animals. This ad is to make the public aware that if you don't invest in an ID tag for your pet, then it is possible you may never see him/her again. In comparison to large international pet supply stores $3.99 is pretty reasonable.



Need Help?

This is a new ad done for petsontees.com to promote fundraising for animal welfare organizations.

This is a wonderful guide to Search Engine Optimization. It's a pretty site, too. Just saying.

The Cute, The Cuddly, and The Curious

Recently I accepted a position as an Advertising Graphic Designer in an apparel manufacturing/distribution company. It was apparent when I was greeted by a big grey dog named Buddy, that clothing wasn't the only thing this company had a knack for. Jensen Apparel has just recently introduced Petsontees.com where online guests and animals lovers can upload any artwork, picture, or word to a tee shirt. The concept of this website is to host other online stores for local humane societies, sponsoring companies, and supporters. This website acts as a sub branch of petsontees.com, but with the name chosen by the governing organization.  20% of all proceeds go to the welfare of animals and their owners/supporters. The site is free, no hassle, and easy to use. Sign up now. My job is your job, let's help out the cute, the cuddly, and the curious.

Logo Design Process: Blown Away

This client came to me with the idea of using butterflies to represent growth and change to her clients.  Being that she owns a salon, there was room to be creative with the butterfly and hair concept. I thought it would be fitting to use the new logo trend of an image within an image.  So the idea of using two silhouettes of female heads with long hair accompanied by these very organic swirl elements became the foundation for the logo. 


My client being a little skeptical after reviewing thumbnails is now in love with her new identity. Ms. Lakisha Pridget is now the proud owner of Blown Away Salon and an unmistakable identity:
