Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
Inspired by the resurgent trend of racing-themed graphics, motorsport decals, and 80's band tees, this collection pays homage to the fun, energetic, and larger-than-life persona of our favorite turtles. By blending bold colors, racing patterns, and hand drawn italics typography, the designs capture the thrill of motorsport and the rebellious flair of 80's rock culture. Drawing from the concept of multiple dimensions explored in the TMNT comics, this collection reimagines the Ninja Turtles as rockstars on a world tour through iconic locations in the TMNT universe. This collection aims to evoke a sense of nostalgia and excitement, inviting fans to celebrate the adventurous spirit of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

The N.Y. Slice
In the process of developing the artwork for this guide, I was asked to create a pizza themed graphic that could still fit within the established visual language of the collection. I created one composition utilizing the checkered pattern, some of the same fonts, and halftone textures, and continued the emphasis on location, in this example being New York. That composition ended up being used by the OG surf brand Jack's Surfboard for an exclusive Jack's Surfboard X TMNT Nickelodeon collection.
