Ready for work

Sandaruwani is ready for their next project!

A client wanted to show how his business grew with the use of technology. And I had the opportunity to create 5 images for his presentation and digital screen. While finishing it off I created this with AI as an example to show how animation can help improve the visuals.

Cover image for When a promising book brief
When a promising book brief just needs that little spark to truly stand out. A client of mine—a book publisher—had previously explored AI-generated covers. They were visually interesting, but something felt incomplete. The layout wasn’t quite doing justice to the story. So I took a step back. I read the brief carefully, let the concept settle, and focused on capturing the emotional tone the cover needed to convey. Because a great cover isn’t just seen—it’s felt.

I created a perfume bottle package design in Blender for a client. And for a little mockup, I used Grok, and I ended up with a beautiful mockup. Bonus point: the client loved the AI-bottled design.
