The designer, Shelley Scott-Smolen, approached me to create a logo that captures the complexity of her work in an iconic way. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/50db85a0e4b00220dc727567/1536880661972-A5W6WQF4955Q4UUG9U7D/EYEWORK_logoLR2.jpg Design Portfolio - Eyeland visual branding When I began a new section of my studio, Eyeland, I decided to keep the visuals simple and handmade. The hand drawn logotype rests on a dark grey—a nod to the chalkboards in my studio, which used to be a classroom. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/50db85a0e4b00220dc727567/1536880930574-GH9BQSPVXKKGRH3DSSR9/workshopsEyelandbanner5.jpg Design Portfolio - Eyeland pattern In the initial stages of designing Eyeland’s visual branding, I sketched pages of different eyes. These little babies became a pattern in newsletters and on the back of business cards. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/50db85a0e4b00220dc727567/1536887664601-GHIP4AZWSU468XWRVQTL/composealoom.jpg Design Portfolio - Compose a Loom Poster Bringing in visiting artists to the Appalachian area was one of my favorite aspects of programming for Eyeland. These posters were hung up around the small town of Marshall, NC, and in neighboring Asheville, to promote Taylor’s workshop. This slow and laborious method of advertising was actually one of the best ways to get the word out in this tight knit community. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/50db85a0e4b00220dc727567/1536883746968-28YC3IAYI6JNUUF20HWG/MHM_thelaurelad.jpg Design Portfolio - Marshall Handmade Market Ad suite The Marshall Handmade Market is the most loved by vendors and visitors in the West North Carolina area. I designed their marketing materials with whimsy and a hint of the holidays in mind. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/50db85a0e4b00220dc727567/1536887445300-CLXK3210EVFFU6YNNU7W/MHS_openstudio.jpg Design Portfolio - Marshall High Studios Poster Lights and lanterns hang sleepily in the vast auditorium at Marshall High Studios, and are part of the dreamy fabric of the space. After a handful of people asked to visit my studio at MHS, I decided to host Open Studios once a month. These posters populated community bulletin boards, florist windows, and brewery bathroom walls. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/50db85a0e4b00220dc727567/1536883758365-UFC7B2F2RG3WSSYZAK7X/play2success_logoRGB.png Design Portfolio - Play 2 Success logo Pamela Miller guides professionals to find clarity of purpose and helps them build success from the inside out. She needed a logo to represent the branch of her coaching business that utilizes play to engage her clients. The movement of the final design is lighthearted, yet professional, and illustrates continuous cycle of play and success. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/50db85a0e4b00220dc727567/1536883772179-NZB49RPL84KUEL84GVD8/BBBBpatterns.jpg Design Portfolio - Let's Talk: Break Bread, Break Borders Pattern for endpages In addition to laying out the second issue of Let’s Talk, a book produced by Make Art with Purpose, I was also tasked with designing the patterns for endpages. Inside, artist Tessa Hull illustrates the stories of three refugee women who found solace in cooking. The rotating BB motif rotates within a stylized weave, and the colors are inspired by textiles from Syria and Myanmar, the home countries of the women. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/50db85a0e4b00220dc727567/1536888154069-29S5VMZX9OBZKRFAA09I/E%2BPbookletv2.jpg Design Portfolio - E + P Booklet In Spring 2018, I art directed a project for my Professional Craft Design class after receiving a grant from Haywood Community College. The grant provided funding for a Polaroid camera, film and printing costs. After countless rounds of preliminary iPhone photos, the students captured the elements and principles of design on film, then I scanned and compiled their photographs into a book. They each received a copy to keep as self-made design resource. http://www.delaneysmith.studio/surface-design-pattern daily 0.75 2018-10-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/50db85a0e4b00220dc727567/1537313389322-5UD3UXZ1SBRB5A5XY8TW/pillows.jpg Surface Design + Pattern - Naturally Dyed Pillows These pillows are made with organic linen dyed with madder, onion skin, iron and locally harvested goldenrod. Iron saddens the dye, creating the circular designs. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/50db85a0e4b00220dc727567/1537313389322-5UD3UXZ1SBRB5A5XY8TW/pillows.jpg Surface Design + Pattern - Naturally Dyed Pillows These pillows are made with organic linen dyed with madder, onion skin, iron and locally harvested goldenrod.

The shift in color was created by resist dye + screen print on the warp, and inserting threads into the weft. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/50db85a0e4b00220dc727567/1537315975771-XMGV00KLZMOJFY0IYC0V/eyeland_pattern2.jpg Surface Design + Pattern https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/50db85a0e4b00220dc727567/1537323677709-B04X2BYXX1GMBZE8DRXE/wall_hanging.jpg Surface Design + Pattern - Naturally dyed wall hangings These are two examples of a series of 12 wall hangings made with naturally dyed linen. Each wall hanging is unique, and is supported by a handmade cotton rope strung through a copper tube. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/50db85a0e4b00220dc727567/1539374837687-7UVIQFDW3MWXV4TIWE8Z/IMG_0420.jpg Surface Design + Pattern - Naturally dyed zipper pouches These zipper pouches are made with naturally dyed linen and lined with organic twill cotton. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/50db85a0e4b00220dc727567/1539374854674-VSCCX4V7S41GKWX42Y39/group2.jpg Surface Design + Pattern - Naturally dyed zipper pouches These zipper pouches are made with naturally dyed linen and lined with organic twill cotton. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/50db85a0e4b00220dc727567/1539375424411-GIOS6TGRK2WQ9Z1E7XBH/BBBBpatterns.jpg Surface Design + Pattern - Patterns for Let's Talk: Break Bread, Break Borders These patterns were designed for the second edition of Let’s Talk, a zine produced by Make Art with Purpose.
