More type....

I am really starting to love typography and it's technical aspects, but I don't know that I will ever prefer it over lettering.

This is a project where we had to choose a quote and emphasize the meaning through words and different type usage.














The next project should be fun. We are taking an event (anything) and summing it up into a sentence and using lettering and materials to illustrate the sentence or a few words from it.

I will post some ideas up soon.



On a side note, I embarrassed myself in from of my professor by misspelling typography on a piece of paperwork today. Luckily he joked that we learned how to spell in Type 2. (It was paperwork signing me into that class next semester.)

Last Semester

I was getting ready for my portfolio review in a few weeks and decided to share some work from Graphic Design 1.


Shadow puppets for last semesters final project...A shadow puppet show. I was doing The lion in love.






 
 some more puppets.








This was an extension from that project. We did a poster for another groups story.














This was a color theory project : analogous colors.

Gestalt Theory project : proximity, closure, similarity, continuation, and figure/ground.








Thank you McKays.

Got a couple old Communication Arts magazines and a huge set of 2 International Communication Design yearbooks for 2010-2011. Hopefully I can find some good inspiration from those.

I did happen to find this already though.....It says that most girls are to young to even make it through pregnancy. Damn.

new & old.

Just thought I would share some more work from recently and from the past.

 Here is one of my projects from GRD 1:
It's 30 x 40 I think.
These are My-troskas!
 
This was done for an upcoming art show in April at rcktwn.                    
                   

one of those little things.

Me and my boyfriend have this ongoing joke that I always pick the strangest food to eat. I just like to try all kinds of different things & most of the time I'm not disappointed. Today I decided to spend a little extra cash on these guys. Both are great! I didn't even know pink peppercorns existed.

A few sketches for my new illustration 1 project.

American Artisan Festival poster for Nashville. Cool thing about this project is one person in our class is going to be selected to promote the festival.

Finally started this thing.

well here it is. I am going to start to post my new work on here and hope to get feedback. Maybe I can excite some eyes along the way.

Here is my newest type project:

A modular typeface made from 3 shapes.
