DESIGNER - ILLUSTRATOR
Crafting the brand identity for professional dominatrix Countess Diamond required an in-depth process of concepting, sketching and refinement in order to capture the enigmatic personality at the core of the deeply intimate services she offers.
Stereotypical BDSM branding can easily fall into one of two territories: grim and dark or cheap and cheesy. In order to break away from convention, Countess Diamond wanted a brand toolkit that was uniquely HERS: Sophisticated but rebellious. Moody but not gothic. Occult but not halloween.
The brand elements draw inspiration from both esoteric iconography and classic luxury branding –but always with a twist. Unexpected curves and points, a bit of grit, and hand drawn icons all compliment the dramatic baroque photos of the Countess herself. What better way to draw in new clients than with branding rooted in mystery and seduction?

A FEW THINGS
ABOUT ME
FATHER OF TWO • AQUARIUS • ASPIRING WIZARD
Hi, I'm Ryan. My passion is developing top rail artwork and design for trail blazers and scoundrels.
I’m visually driven and love to create. I’ve been utilizing my art and design background to make lots of cool stuff for at least 12 years – key illustrations, product design, events, brand identity, packaging, multimedia social content and high-level strategic concepts.
I’m passionate about this stuff and I’m very much at home with a large team – partnering with large CPG brands on huge promotions. But I get true satisfaction by helping those with a unique vision refine their voice through hand-crafted design and illustration.

Why Outrider?
An outrider is someone who rides ahead to make sure that the rest of the group is ok. They look outward to the horizon and chart new territory. They’re someone who might go alone and take a unique path but always has the safety and wellbeing of the group in mind. Outrider is my ethos for the art I create. To be adventerous and new while holding space for everyone in your heart.
