I’m Nola Valerian, a recent graduate of The Ohio State University with a bachelor of science in visual communications design and a minor in media production and analysis. 

Learning from great design works like Funkadelic, ‘Maggot Brain’        The Velvet Underground, ‘Loaded’          The Clash, 'London Calling'        Childish Gambino, ‘Awaken, My Love!’        Death, ‘Spiritual-Mental-Physical’        Flaming Lips, ‘At War With the Mystics’        Björk, ‘Vespertine’        Eddie Hazel, ‘Game, Dames, And Guitar Thangs’        Tommy Guerrero, ‘Soul Food Taqueria’        All Natural Lemon & Lime Flavors, ‘Straight Blue Line’        Silk Rhodes, ‘Silk Rhodes’        André 3000, ‘New Blue Sun’        Blood Orange, ‘Negro Swan’        Wire, ‘Pink Flag’        Nick Drake, ‘Bryter Layter‘        I became deeply obsessed with how typography, photography and graphics can come together to tell a story. My love of album covers led me into the world of design, where I now freelance. I enjoy a collaborative, co-design approach to visual storytelling. My best work comes from the inspiration I find in others.
