A cover and eight interior chapter openers for Ginny Hogan's "I'm More Dateable than a Plate of Refried Beans", a book of romantic, funny, painfully relatable observations on modern dating. The lettering leans into that same wit: playful, a little chaotic, never taking itself too seriously.
Lettering and illustration work together to translate the personality of each chapter into compositions that feel expressive, unexpected, and full of character.
Across all nine pieces, the challenge was to create distinct visuals while maintaining a cohesive language throughout the book. The result is a series of chapter openers that complement the writing and use humor as a visual tool, adding another layer of personality to the reading experience.
