Botanical Illustrations created by expert package designer on Apple iPad with Apple Pencil

I had the honor of being asked to create custom artwork for Apple using their new iPad Pro and Apple Pencil.

For the collaboration, I was tasked with creating bespoke typographic artwork to promote iPad Pro and Apple Pencil as a pair of powerful drawing tools. The final illustration was featured in two concurrent Keynote addresses as well as in online promotional media.

THE BRIEF

Working in Procreate on iPad Pro, I created a large-scale digital illustration.

Using my other typographic pieces as inspiration, I was tasked with creating a dense, floral monogram illustration.

The final illustrated artwork - a typographic ‘Q’ monogram, was created over the course of two weeks and 30 hours.

I loved working on this project. The iPad Pro and Apple Pencil amplified my work. Zooming in to add detail to my illustrations with a pixel-perfect display means that I didn't have to strain to create beautiful things. Apple Pencil floored me; it picks up on the smallest gestures, and the fact that I can angle weight density and opacity means I have a toolkit equivalent to 100 drawing pens all living inside one device.

The collaboration provided the perfect opportunity to combine my proprietary dense, monochromatic linework with Apple’s powerful creative tools.
