Jewelry Boutique Web Design and Business Branding

2011-01-02T09:05:00.003-05:00

I'm so pleased with how this custom branding and web design package is coming out for new client, Shekinah. I designed her logo and a gorgeous homepage graphic presentation with a nostalgic, vintage appeal.

Two New Vintage Designs

2009-11-10T15:56:00.006-05:00

While I have a beautiful romantic collection of designs in the works, I got a little sidetracked and whipped up these two vintage designs (below). Check them out in the VINTAGE GALLERY and stay tuned for my unique romantic collection!

Current Schedule

2009-11-07T21:10:00.011-05:00

I am currently working with two customers, both of whom have ordered custom girly girl illustrations (small samples below). One a gorgeous, hot pink illustrated silhouette with a website makeover, and the other, two look-a-like characters for a really unique blog. To view more hip, trendy girly girl characters, check out my portfolio at INK BOUTIQUE.

Victoriana Websites

2009-10-30T22:48:00.006-04:00

In between custom design, I am working on a charming new Victorian Collection. Take your visitors on a journey to the past every time they browse your website! See sample below and more in the gallery.

Childrens Boutiques

2009-10-21T08:49:00.004-04:00

I am currently in the process of restoring a lovely collection of vintage children for my newest series of Vintage Boutiques... preview the first two in this series below, and stop by the gallery to view all my Vintage Boutique Designs.

Hip & Chic Character Illustration

2009-10-12T07:25:00.015-04:00

Put a "face" with your business and add personality with a custom character illustration. I also specialize in look-a-like characters, as well as illustrated boutiques and storefronts, for a unique identity.

High-End Design, New Look for Galleria di Luce

2009-10-07T17:08:00.009-04:00

I am so pleased and excited to launch my website re-design for 2010! (I get creative in Autumn... it's my favorite time of year!) Enjoy browsing!

Business Branding

2009-09-22T10:27:00.013-04:00

I just finished a gorgeous collection of pre-designed logo identities. There's feminine, chic, girly girl and even animal characters. Stop by and browse the whole collection in my logo Gallery!

Now, That's Italian!

2009-09-17T19:16:00.007-04:00

Off the subject for one brief moment... Don't ask me how, but I somehow managed in the midst of designing today, to sneak away and make THE MOST delicious, homemade vegetable lasagna. (Darn. I shoulda took a picture of it!) It was brimming and oozing with bubbly cheese, broccoli, zucchini, onions... oh, it was good!

Just saying.

Okay, back to graphics and web design!

Current Schedule-Revised

2009-09-12T22:12:00.008-04:00

At present, I am working on three huge and exciting projects... one for a large company in Denmark, including custom logo designs with complementary template design. The second project is a custom designed e-commerce website, with unique template and logo designs for an online gift boutique. I'm also designing a gorgeous website with matching printable coupons for an upscale salon in the tri-state area. While feminine designs and concepts are my first love, I'm really enjoying working with this super fellow in Denmark. Because I have a mostly female clientele, he is patiently working with me until I get this company's designs just a little less feminine. Professional, clean and elegant I can do... but masculine, well, it's a bit of a challenge, but totally fun!

Recent Work - Restored Vintage Women

2009-08-23T20:44:00.041-04:00

The designs below I think are some of my best work... so I decided to create a blog to display them because they'll eventually be removed from my Gallery and replaced with new ones. I literally spent hours digitally painting and restoring the women featured in each design.

I just finished customizing these pre-designed templates for some of the nicest customers. I also created a look-a-like vector character illustration that one of the gal's sent to a printer for her business cards (you can view my illustration portfolio but be sure to visit my main website Galleria di Luce for feminine, elegant graphics and web design!)
