Solo Piano Recording Project



This is a recently completed design and layout for a gospel hymn project of solo piano selections. The samples show the front and back covers of the CD jewel case.

The client wanted the cover to be understood as a recording of piano music and not a vocal recording. The background keyboard image makes this clear and the solo piano text solidifies it. The project’s sales and promotion is to raise funds for a missions outreach to Asia and Africa. On the back cover, the passport graphic further clarifies this mission as does the artist’s Sri-Lanka traditional apparel.

Retirement Community Brochure

This is a recent design completion for a multi-page senior retirement community in Kansas. The brochure utilizes classic black halftones. Beneath the cover image are sample layout pages of the inside spreads. The gray is printed a warm silver metallic ink. The text lays out a narrative of how seniors have gone the extra mile for their children and now they enjoy the benefits of a first-class retirement community while maintaining their individuality and freedom. I also designed a new logo for this project, appearing on the front cover.
