From Idea to FruitionAt Artonomy we made ideas reality. At our art consulting firm we handled everything from initial art concepts to the final products. It is one of the few firms where everything was done in house and I got to handle art creation at every step of the process.

Personalized for Each ClientDepending on the project the clients themselves might provide the art images and we create the artwork from that.
For the project to the right it was for a Native American business who wanted to honor their culture's traditional art of quill work. With their images I created different artwork options for each wall of varying size and quantity. We didn't get a wide variety of images so I got creative with repeating the images in various ways and orientations. |

Nothing was too outlandishWe didn't just produce flat canvases. We produced fine art as well with the help of our talented staff of artists. Together we would talk with our clients and any other design companies, if they were present on the project, and discuss materials, scale, and test various techniques to see which best worked for each project. Through collaboration we were able to produce ideas like a 10 ft tall sculpture of a horse made of rope.

Named after the flower, the restaurant took inspiration from nature combining it with the copper color of pennies. We workshopped various designs initially proposing a collage of actual pennies in the shape of the pennyflower. We then proposed a series of simplified graphics of pennyflowers with a prominent copper color. Adapting designs to fit the changing needs of the client while maintaining the spirit of art. |

Unique to Every City. Every Culture.
Our biggest clients were hotel chains. Each one had its own brand identity but any time they opened a new location we would produce new art tailored to each new city. We took in consideration the local culture, history, and the people that made that community what it is.
