EQUIPPED TO FLOURISH

Hi, I'm Danielle Lynise, a seasoned graphic designer who is continually learning, growing and going for the wow. I’m a thoughtful, visual storyteller who is inspired to create engaging design experiences. I love the haptic nature of printed collateral, and the interactive cues that can continue a viewer’s experience online.

“There are three responses to a piece of design—yes, no, and wow!

WOW is the one to aim for.”

–Milton Glaser

Lively illustrations

From pencil to vector, and beyond...

I use a wide range of illustration techniques including vector, hyper-realistic photo manipulations, and digital paintings that emulate watercolor, gouache, pastels and mixed media.

Hand-crafted Joy

Lettering, deckling, painting—oh my!

As our high-tech world becomes more sleek and sterile, it's no surprise to me that the handmade processes I love so dearly are at the forefront of design and production trends. The result?: humanistic aesthetics, authentic communication, and highly tactile printed objects that are both fun to create and to experience.

considering the finishes in the beginning

Inventive and functional production features

Innovative and effective uses of finishing techniques can accentuate the haptic qualities of printed media. I look for inventive solutions that consider the medium's limitations, as well as the project's budget constraints.
