Ainsley Gavin

I’m a fourth-year Graphic Design & Packaging student at Cal Poly combing my experience in packaging engineering with my knowledge of graphic and brand design. 

I serve as the Panel Director of Cal Poly's Packaging Symposium, and as a board member of RAW Magazine and Design Lab. Between my leadership roles and 2+ of freelance experience,  I've learned to anticipate problems and create thoughtful, impactful solutions. 

I’m actively seeking graphic design and brand design roles where I can contribute a strong design perspective informed by technical knowledge and a deep appreciation for the craft.

Acrylic, 2021: Experimenting with rythm, flow and color.

Graphite, 2022: Mother Nature

At this time, I was really into circles, and what they can represent in artwork. I thought it would be interesting to create a geometric version of mother nature as a play on "sacred geometry".

Colored Pencil, 2023: Divine Feminine

This piece was attempt to use minimal lines to create a complete form. Notice how the lines of the cheeks connect to the eyes, which then flow to the chin.

This piece was my biggest canvas ever! Experimentation with light & shadow was the biggest goal of this painting.

Oil, 2025

Jelly! 

This was a class project based on real life photos of desserts to evoke a sense of a landscape using food. 

I was drawn to the idea of a jelly waterfall, which was lot of fun to paint. I hope you don't get too hungry!
