GRAPHIC DESIGNER // ILLUSTRATOR // PRODUCTION ARTIST
From the age of 14, I found myself fascinated with the art of design. As a teen going into highschool, I obtained access to Adobe programs and from there I’ve spent most of my life perfecting my craft through different creative projects. My education has given me a strong foundation to continue to thrive as a graphic designer and I take great pride in that.
ALBUM COVERS
My specialty is Album covers. I thoroughly enjoy making cover art for different musical artists and creative individuals. I’ve developed a smooth process in order to deliver web and print-ready artwork to my clients.

TRASHLYFE TEDD
Trashlyfe Tedd is an American rapper from San Diego California. He was in need of visuals to start pushing his music to the masses and wasn't able to get his artwork approved for distribution. We worked together to push out his first single "Murphy Canyon" using completely new art that Trashlyfe Tedd now owns and can reproduce with any future projects. With the positive outcome of the first single, I have had the pleasure of producing all of the cover designs that Trashlyfe Tedd has released since. I hope to be able to provide more visual artwork for Trashlyfe Tedd in the future
"Finding local talent is very abundant where I live but finding high-quality visuals for my music was a difficult task until I found Hamr Arts. We've developed a partnership at this point and I can really count on Chris to produce visuals that will get approved and are always spot on to what I need. He really takes my words and turns it into almost exactly what I'm thinking"

JAYKACIEA’S WORD
Tasked with the mission of giving her main source of content a revamp, I decided to look at what Jaykaciea's YouTube channel provided her end users and with quality videos on spirituality and a focus on becoming a young adult and making it successful within her community I decided the best way to provide her end users with something eye-catching was to revamp her Banner for her main channel and Thumbnails for her video's.
"Working with Christopher was great! He captured what I needed and I'm happy to have him on my side when I want to produce videos, merchandise, or anything else for my audience."
