Minnie and Bulba (2025)

Inspired by family pet rats, Bulba and Minnie. Started with color studies in water color(left to right: analogous, discordant, and complementary). Eventually I evolved the concept moved onto a polished digital look, that I expanded into mockups, including tote bags and mugs.

Cat-Bernet 1558 (2024)

I created this character years ago, as the queen in a deck of cards, and decided to give her a makeover for new purposes. Using her as the face of a wine company, she is now more refined and elegant than ever! Finally the background of the label, reflects a common area that domesticated cats are found.

Flower Fortune (2023)

I created this piece as a tribute to the Palestinian and Lebanese peoples, and their shared history, culture, and loyalty towards one another. I, myself, am Lebanese on my father’s side and wanted to share some of the many beautiful things about these cultures through a childhood paper fortune teller or whirlybird. The design throughout the piece is primarily based on henna patterns, a tradition practiced by Arab women and girls, and one of my favorite parts of being Lebanese as a young girl. I also incorporated symbols significant to either, Palestinians, like the watermelon and pomegranate, or Lebanese, like lavender and the cedar tree, as well as incorporating arabic numerals.

Totes Ghosts (2023)

A fun and playful print of various personalities of ghosts. I also then brought it into a mockup of a tote bag.

“Sharpen your heart” (2023)

Based off the fantasy book The Cruel Prince, from the Folk of the Air Series, by best-selling author Holly Black, I created two new alternative book covers. Each representing a different aspect of the books themes. I then brought them into a mockup.

“The injury of finally knowin’ you” (2024)

This piece is inspired by and based off the 2023 song titled Unknown / Nth by singer Hozier. Based off of the Dante’s Inferno, themed album, the song explores feelings of betrayal, and being misunderstood by someone you love, by drawing parallels to God and Lucifer. Although there are many interpretations, I interpreted it through the lens of a parent abandoning its child, that being God abandoning Lucifer. Being raised Catholic, I incorporated several references to Catholic practices and biblical symbolism.

You’ve got mail! (2023)

This project was created as spot illustrations for a magazine. The idea of nine unique pieces of mail, coming from different people.

Hidden Vices (2023)

The goal of this project was to explore a topic that is normally hidden or not talked about. I focused on different forms of addiction, something that people tend to keep quiet, like a shopping, smoking, binge watching, binge eating, and gambling. I used colors that I thought came off as slightly straining to the eyes, as a way to emphasis an uneasy feeling.
