(Graphic)

No idea when I did this, just found it. I'll go with it.

brewsiprocity--the place that never was

I recently finished the final course in a graphic design class series, in which we had to design an entire campaign for a fictional restaurant. It was challenging, but I came out with some decent design work. The above image is the finalized logo for the restaurant.

My original idea, after sketches

Liked this one, but too many colors for spot color printing.

Same problem as the one above, with the added problem of "What was I thinking with the 'w'?"

Robot Rebellion

I recently finished up a digital illustration class that was really useful and also fun. I made quite a few pieces in that class which I think are worth posting here. Right now, I'm only going to post the final project for the class, as it is certainly my favorite project and probably the best work I did for the class.

The image was created using primarily Adobe Illustrator, but with some work in Photoshop (the assignment was basically about demonstrating what you'd learned in the class).

GID 43--Week 1

For the first assignment of this quarter, we've been asked to do some quick studies of a cup or other simple object. I decided to do a cup, because I was drinking tea at the time.

Just, you know, taking a break from school. Which probably wasn't a good idea, but as I didn't really have many options to me at the time, or money, it was the only one that seemed to lead to the best outcome. I haven't done much in the way of art in the last year, because for a bit I thought maybe I wanted to be a math teacher (long story), but here's a picture I took of a bear wearing a monocle:

Shirt

Yes, I drew a picture of a t-shirt I printed.

In my defense, it was an assignment. Also, the drawing turned out really well.

Camera

This is the camera I use to take pictures of my drawings. Done for my Art 4C (drawing) class. It's NuPastel on Velvet Gray paper. I could probably still work on it, and I might. Sometime in the future. But it's good for now.
