The program gives talented creative individuals the opportunity to explore their passion and process by focusing on a personal creative project for one full year.

Graphic designer and hand letterer Christine Herrin, of San Francisco, California, is obsessed with stories, paper, and print. Travel and her passion for documenting her experiences have always been a central theme in her work as a designer, especially in the line of products she’s been creating for the past few years. Christine is currently working on a design-rich travel journal meant to inspire people to document their lives in creative, meaningful ways, while her Instagram challenges entice others to use images, words, and illustration to chronicle life’s most interesting moments.

Syd Weiler – Adobe Creative Resident – Live on Twitch.tv/adobe

The Adobe Creative Residency supports the creative community and honors individuals whose work elevates the role of visual content in our culture. The program gives talented creative individuals the opportunity to explore their passion and process by focusing on a personal creative project for one full year.

Appropriately dubbed an “illustr-animator,” Syd Weiler of Sarasota, Florida finds inspiration in everyday life and the seemingly mundane. She works completely digitally, preferring her Microsoft Surface Pro over a blank sheet of paper. While Syd learned most of what she knows in college and through her experience as a designer for forthcoming indie video game Jenny LeClue, she’s steadily grown a passionate online community that’s enthused about her continued work on “Before & After,” a series of digital illustrations depicting places in two different states of being side by side in order to explore the concept of time.
