Unworried
Self Help Book | 2018
Project Summary
Unworried is a self-help guide for Catholic adults on coping with anxiety in daily life. Because the book deals with many complex themes--including principles from neuroscience and social psychology--I was commissioned by Our Sunday Visitor, the book’s publisher, to create 14 illustrations that would bring greater clarity to the text.
Inspired by both Rorschach ink blot tests and the block print Catechism illustrations familiar to much of the book’s audience, I designed the artwork with an inspiring and vaguely mystical aesthetic in mind. Each illustration was drawn so that, even when a reader feels too stressed or overwhelmed to recall the name of a certain exercise or lesson from the book, they can remember with clarity the illustration that accompanies it.
Unworried: A Life Without Anxiety holistically guides readers through complex psychological and spiritual concepts in an effort to help them achieve greater wellness.
I was commissioned by publisher Our Sunday Visitor to illustrate the concepts described in the book with a series of prints.
