Skyler type 1

These are all concepts for a new recording artist, whose debut came out recently. None of these were chosen, but I still really enjoyed working on them. Starting with my childhood, I’ve always drawn letter­forms. For a while, I was even heavily into callig­raphy, and then later I became really inter­ested in the forms of graffiti. This fasci­nation is really what’s lead me to my career in design, and creating my own letter forms continues to bring me joy.

    Nice, man! Those are all fresh.
    The last one really feels like 70’s Southern rock logos— I like it a lot.

    Thanks Josh. I think I went too far in that direction, which was why that concept was rejected. He talked about some influ­ences in that lineage, as well as sort of a Springsteen tone to his music. In the end, it was one of those “back to the drawing board” situ­a­tions. Good learning expe­rience though.
