I was contacted by the Cedar Rapids Kernels for contract work after taking part in a practicum they participated in. Tasked with designing a jersey for their weekly theme night— Marvel Defenders of the Diamond— I wanted to create a comic book inspired hero.
Inspired by corn on the cob and the hulk, I illustrated corn kernels acting as muscles with a husk in the team’s signature blue.
Wanting to embody an old-school comic-book look for the new super hero, I found inspiration in pop-art. With a typographic design on the sleeve, I used the Kernel’s themed logo as the subject of a 4 panel portrait.
