It’s National Donut Day! 🍩 Which flavor of donut is your favorite? Mine is anything chocolate 😋 This gift card design is part of my gift card personal project, and it was fun coming up with this idea for Dunkin’ inspired by their original expressive script logo from the 50s #nationaldonutday #donut

As I reflect on Women’s History Month, I was inspired to make a lettering piece dedicated to five trailblazing women who embody the quote "Because of you we can do more than dream." 💫 The silhouettes I featured in order: Madam C. J. Walker, Maria Tallchief, Kamala Harris, Patsy Mink & Jean Purdy.

Happy Spring 🌷 Manifesting a wonderful new season and new opportunities with this piece celebrating spring! Until I get hired to create a gift card project, I'll be creating a series as a personal project! ✨ My books are open for lettering so feel free to reach out at hello[at]agfdesignstudio.com

As it's now January 16th, I can say that I've successfully rolled over half of last year's goals into this year and have yet to implode 🙂

January is already halfway over and that feels wrong

Bring it 2025! So far I've: - Organized a bunch of old papers & receipts - Prepped my e-Thank you cards to go out - Backed up my 2024 project files - Bought a planner

Part 2 of the story behind illustrating Love Letters: An Alphabet of Affirmations is now live! You'll even get to see some peaks at early sketches and explorations from the project! 👀 www.youtube.com/watch?v=UsHk...

Happy December! Don’t worry about your goals from this past January because it’s about to be January again 😉

I made my first Starter Pack, and as you should expect, it is very Black. go.bsky.app/N2nLMMU
