Telling stories through illustration & animation
Telling stories through illustration & animation
Kier believes that graphic illustrations tell powerful stories. Through continuous practice, he has developed a distinct illustration style which involves creating subtle gradients, lights, and shadows through stippling. Then, he breathes life to his artworks by adding simple animation through AfterEffects. All of the animated images on this site are part of his collection, alongside the animated works he created for some of the websites he developed.
UX Design and Case Studies
Ever since he started studying and doing freelance work, Kier has discovered the potentials of HTML, CSS, and WordPress development. He has experimented on how to marry his fun and bold design aesthetic, to the power of WordPress in doing his personal projects and client work. The projects presented are some of his best college UX design work, personal projects, and WordPress-developed client projects.
