Welcome to my Dog House.  This is my fun page where I will show you around the Dog House and introduce you to some of the dog stars who are an important part of my design work.

Flynn is an active Border Collie and a joy to photograph! 

Flynn is my inspiration for my illustration that I created and used as part of a packaging label for Woof Barkery in Oregon.  I also used him in a magazine ad project.

Woof Barkery is a boutique line of dog biscuits made by Jenn Grentz which features homemade, all natural ingredient treats for dogs.  Jenn herself is a certified all-natural ingredient chef.

Skills used in boutique business Woof Barkery

Packaging:  I chose the paper sack packaging because it is a natural, easy to biodegrade material that keeps with the all-natural ingredients concept.

Illustration:  Created in Adobe Illustrator

Logo Design:  Color Theory using vintage colors, Typography and text to complement Flynn's whimsical illustration

Skills used in magazine ad for Findster, a theoretical GPS pet tracker

Typography and use of Color Theory

Photography:

Nikon D 810 for high pixel count for cropping when necessary and for quality print.

70 - 200mm Nikkor lens which has the best glass found in a zoom lens, and the best images for the cost of the lens.

Post Processing in Lightroom and Photoshop for quality images that are clean, uncluttered, with a "pop" of color.
