A mobile layout design for the "Key Artists" of a movement page. The client asked for a slight redesign to more reflect current UI mobile standards in use. The process took into consideration responsive design, as well as condensing the information to better suit the mobile interface, while still maintaining what the client believes are the strong points of the site. For the overall UI of the site, I designed these buttons with carrots and coloration to denote whether the tab is open or closed. For this particular page, I chose a carousel effect with a link to the details of that artist at the bottom. I also altered the colors in the Facebook and Twitter icons to be "Art Story Blue" and more square with round edges.

A layout from the "Orphism" movement page, displaying some of the movement's best works. Here I attempted to make the top image appear as if it was lifting slightly off the page, to get a more realistic feel of an album. 

A cover and link for the "Surrealist Sculpture" movement page. Here I composited Salvador Dali's "Lobster Phone" into a gallery setting and placed it within a photo. This is used as a link to bring people onto the main page for that movement.

This is a "share" page for the artist Remedios Varo. These are designed to highlight the artist's work progression and to share.

A timeline of the life and work of artist William Eggleston. 

I was often tasked with pulling artist's signatures off of dedications pages or paintings like the one above and making them into transparent png's, suitable for placement on their individual artist pages. This often involves various tracing and selection techniques or even full redraws in order to get the results as seen below. Finding the balance between maintaining an artist's unique signature and making the size and clarity correct is always a challenge.

A quote that was used for the "Vorticism" movement page. I was asked to place it in a simple, yet meaningful context. I pulled the color palette from "Dance' by Helen Saunders, a painting exemplifying the movement, and used the font Grotesque No. 9, which was the font used in "Blast" Magazine, the most important magazine for this movement. 
This is a button I was asked to design for people to display when they've given money on Giving Tuesday. I wanted to make it fun, but simple and clean, maintaining the site's style guidelines at the same time.
I was asked to replace an existing red recommended icon which looked like a flag, with something more streamlined and small. 
Here I redesigned the colors and shifted the layout from the original version, adding the new "our pick" icon. This is the collapsed version.
This is the expanded version.
A button used on the website to send people wishing to donate to the right place. The client wanted to use the existing graphic made for a banner that said "every $1=$3", but then to add new text to it. The challenges were matching an unknown font, and working around the existing layout while keeping the reader's interest.
