Fighting Fillies Ad in PQ Monthly



Print ad for the Portland Fighting Fillies full contact women's football team in PQ Monthly magazine. There is no powder, puff, or lingerie when these girls play... it is full contact and full on football.
Thanks to Erin Diurba for the photography. Below is the original photo to get a perspective on how a good ad/poster/design just isn't worth its paper if you don't start with a great shot.  Erin's photos make my job more fun.

digital mascot sasquatch





Here's a trendy NW Sasquatch, complete with guitar and mac. Designed for Powermax, a local apple dealer. They went with another digital mascot, but it was a good project. Started as pencil sketches, then ink drawings, then scanned into illustrator for vectorization & color.
