Bringing meaning to “message in a bottle”.
Packaging design is my jam! In each label I create, I apply my typography and illustrative abilities with a hands-on execution experience throughout the creative process. I’ve done many various bottle labels, which are featured below.

The Viper’s Venom
Hot Sauce
Oregon State University Typography II course project
The Viper’s Venom Hot Sauce is a packaging project I created for my Typography II course at Oregon State University, 2018. The bottle is an old Tabasco sauce bottle with the original labeling removed.
I drew small, simple shapes on sketch paper and scanned at high resolution, facilitating accurately-traced vector versions of the characters with a rough paper texture to it. Some influence was taken from graffiti lettering, an art form I've been fascinated with since early high school.
I wanted to create a versatile brand system with a balance between “novelty” & “artisan” that makes consumers look twice at the shelf.
The Viper’s Venom Hot Sauce is so hot, it has some bite to it.
