ADULT COLORING BOOK
Gardner-Webb University


In 2020, while working as a Senior Graphic Designer at Gardner-Webb University, the challenges of COVID-19 and social distancing were at their peak. Faculty and staff sought creative, contact-free ways to keep students engaged—particularly new students who were still unfamiliar with the campus.

This led to the creation of an adult coloring book that I fully illustrated and designed. The book highlights key landmarks around the GWU campus, accompanied by brief historical notes for each location.

Assets created: cover, guts (8-page coloring pages), printed kraft board backing, organic social assets, email assets
Utilized skills: illustration, digital design, multiple page layout, vendor management
Tools + software: Procreate, iPad and Apple Pencil, Adobe Photoshop, Adobe InDesign
