You know those projects that you love, but only for a second? Or maybe you only really like a small part of a certain project. Well, here are some of those projects that deserve to get at least some attention, but not worth all of the attention.

Poison Rules Collective 2026
 
 

DESCRIPTION:
An evolution of the original 2023 release, this 2026 edition revisits the skull motif that defined the first drop while refining the overall design language. The piece preserves the raw, confrontational energy of the original, introducing updated composition, sharper detailing, and more intentional typography to reflect the progression of the brand. Rooted in the same visual DNA, Collective 26 bridges influence across Arizona and Utah, balancing desert grit with a clean, structured execution that feels both grounded and elevated.

Poison Rules Red Rock
 
 

DESCRIPTION:
Created as visual assets for the Hawk Family. This collection draws directly from the red rock landscapes of Southern Utah and Arizona. A bold Red Rock illustration anchors the composition, paired with a custom Hawk mark shaped with sharp, desert-driven character. Sun-baked tones and rugged textures reflect the grit and warmth of the Southwest, giving the design a sense of place and heritage. The system extends across shirts, and stickers, turning the landscape and the idea of a Poison Rules identity into something wearable, collectible, and rooted in the red rocks that a family calls home.

Rival Brand Training Mixed Media 2—28
 
 

DESCRIPTION:
This project began as a practical need, a mounting board for a new clock, and evolved into a study in resourcefulness and brand identity in my home gym. Using scrap proofs from previous Rival Brand projects, I repurposed discarded print materials into a layered mixed media composition. What would have been waste became texture, color, and a story display.

Mounted to plywood as a structural base, the paper fragments were arranged intentionally, creating depth through overlapping typography, cropped logos, and partial marks from past projects. The digital clock sits at the center, contrasting precision and function against the raw, tactile surface of analog materials. The result bridges time in more ways than one, physically displaying it while visually referencing Rival brand’s ethos.

This piece operates as both utility and creative expression. It demonstrates how branded resources can extend beyond their original purpose, reinforcing identity through reinvention. By transforming production scraps into a functional installation, the project reflects a mindset rooted in sustainability, problem solving, and an ongoing dialogue with the Rival Brand visual language.

Shadows Turn To Light
 
 

DESCRIPTION:
This shirt for Fight the New Drug explores the panther as a symbol of quiet strength and transformation. The design pairs the phrases “Where Shadows Turn to Light” and “Where Fear Becomes Courage” to represent the journey from darkness to growth. Inspired by the panther’s stealth and patience, it captures the idea that real power often moves quietly and that courage begins in the unseen moments of change.
