DaKine Magazine
DaKine is a glossy monthly magazine catering to Hawaii’s gay community. The publisher, being a graphic designer himself, kept the quality high and the covers uncluttered. Though the artwork’s main purpose was to ‘sell’ the magazine, it turns out many people collected and kept the covers for the artwork!
-
- The publisher himself shows up twice in this, my “Rockwell” cover!

- Holiday cover concepts were usually all mine.
-
- My execution of the publisher’s concept for Valentine’s Day.
-
- Halloween was always fun as the publisher usually let just go for it!

- Given the target demographic, you might not expect that this issue was their fastest distribution ever!
