The Neon Black

You can look but you can’t touch, I don’t think I like you much.

For a while now I’ve enjoyed working on striking paper goods, digital “cards”, graphic illustrations and anything related.

About 2 years ago, I showed a friend a series of dark love cards that I designed in college and she loved them so much, she encouraged me to sell them online. After sitting on that thought for a couple of years — I decided to move forward with her advice.

These past couple of months I’ve been sketching, designing, prototyping a series of cards inspired by those original dark cards made many moons ago. 

I’m really excited to share this labor of love.

Stay tuned.

I feel like I’m the Adobe Illustrator 4 start up screen. *design nerd reference*

Well, not really.

But I did move to a new apartment recently that I’m absolutely in love with. Slowly but surely, I’ve been decorating it into a modern rendition of a haunted mansion. Looking to collect a few key pieces — such as a victorian couch, rustic media stand, and a few taxidermy, antler items and we should be set!

Hope to post some more pictures in the next couple of months!

Been watching a lot of Peaky Blinders and Boardwalk Empire. I imagine that a blue-haired descendant of mine from that time looked a lot like this. This was my outfit for The Jazz Age Lawn Party on Governor's Island a few weekends ago. After a millennia — I finally went!
