Making things for
no other reason.
Personal creative practice runs alongside client work. It keeps the curiosity alive and the standards honest. No briefs, no clients, no approval process. Just making.
Personal work is not a portfolio exercise. It's a maintenance practice for the part of the brain that commercial work doesn't reach.
When you're answerable to a brief, there are always constraints on what you can explore. Personal work removes those constraints entirely. I use it to test ideas that are too raw for client work, to develop aesthetic directions I'm curious about, and to keep my hands actually making things rather than just directing others to make them.
I work across ink, acrylic, photography, and digital. The common thread is typography and an interest in the relationship between texture and space.
