photoshop!

So it not the first time i've ever used photoshop, but ths first time i have ever finished anything in photoshop. I usualy get frustrated and leave it.

next stop, Illustrator!

right and wrong

For my conseptual design class we have to depict "Right and Wrong". Here is my idea: How to sit in a chair.

right.
wrong.for my Typography class here is the movie title to The Jungle Book.
I'm quite happy with it over all. It needs a bit of tweeking and cleaning up but over all i'm happy.

And this was also for Type class. We made playing cards and this is one of the jokers. My other card was the king of diamonds but it didn't export properly so we'll see that another time perhaps. 

School is almost finished. Only three days of class left. Craziness! Hopefully you will all be seeing a lot more work from me over the summer. 

It's been a busy time

Some new-ish stuff. 

I'm trying to get organized before the end of term. I have a little quiet(ter) time this week as all my presentations are now out of the way. Back to just drawing and painting. It's such a relife. 

This is a CD cover for one of my illustration classes. We had to create a cover for Peter and the wolf in an off beat, akward, or stylized image. 

Oil face. still working on it. also from referance. 

Calligraphy is harder then it looks... not quite happy with this, but it's on its way. 

More Illustration

More water colour. This time on a hot press paper (smooth surface)

The referance is one I took of my friend Lucy for a passed photography project. 

750 words is not that much.

Dosn't mean i want to do it.

I keep trying to get a start on my communications project. I don't really procrastinate about anything anymore, except for essays... If i can just get some info down now it will be less stressful later. One paragraphe, just one, come on....

yeah good luck me.

new semester!

Self portraits for illustration. I'm so excited we're getting into water colours!!! 

muking about with diffrent styles and aplications a little. I like the one on the right better. 

We have way more presentations and written work this semester. Also a good number of group projects. I kinda just want to paint all the time.

more illustration

Only two weeks left of this semester! I can't believe how fast it's going by.

I'm really excited to go home for Christmas break.

Heres some more school work

This project was to illustrate a scene of a story. This is from Castle in the Air by Dianna Winn Jones. The four year old princese Valerie is mighty unhappy to have been kidnaped by the djinn and is letting them know it. Watercolour

A comic we did to practice one, two and three point perspectives. done in ink

and a subwaystation using 2-point perspective. Done in watercolour.

More to come soon.

Once again, more referance work. These are moslty excersises to play with diffrent mediums. and again this is my friday illustration class.

So, as a mention in the vid, fridays are my favorits!

Here are a couple of peices from the second week of class i think.

They are done in grafite, one is meant to be high-key and one low-key.

Sorry for the poor scan quality. Its being a pain.
