happy turkey day!

this is a drawing i did the other day and finally got to scan/illustrator/photoshop it. i've been hanging out with the fam, enjoying a fabulous birthday, getting stuffed on food, and reading the new Twilight leaked book-whatever-thing. i hope everyone had a fantastic and safe holiday! see you on monday!

don't worry about a thing.

so i don't have illustrations as promised... mostly because i don't have a scanner (and neither does Logan) and i haven't made it to the library. maybe tomorrow. but what i DO have are Atmosphere pictures from 10/22 and some crappy video from the Features show! why does my Env2 take video sideways, can anybody tell me?

love love and yes my birthday is TOMORROW! please come celebrate at the Ugly Tuna with me tonight if you have the time.



Blueprint.

more BP.


BP.


ATMOSPHERE!

he took off his hat.


i want to say fuck you, lucy...


but what i mean is, i love you, lucy


the end, talking about peace and voting and shit.



aaaaand the FEATURES:

hydrogen fuel cells and stuff.

information poster about Hector Guimard, an architect and designer from the Art Nouveau era! ch-ch-check it out:



more illustrations tomorrow and video of THE FEATURES!! i need a scanner and wacom tablet!

every little thing.

so here is my "finished" Crazy Russian Dude. it actually turned out pretty terrible, but it was super fun to do during class (and a hell of a lot more interesting than videos). today, perhaps something much more interesting will turn up... who knows :)

without further ado, before and after pics of my scribbles:

sammich bitches for all.

i drew this guy during my first class. he's kind of based on the Orthodox priest in Battleship Potemkin. i live traced and colored him in my design history class. tuesdays and thursdays are awfully boring



bam!

bounce that.

what a cold, snowy, wet, day! it is officially winter here in Columbus, and while i really enjoy snowy days and sledding and cocoa, i can't say that i'm stoked about trudging around in this shit to work and school.

that being said, i spent the majority of today indoors mastering the Live Trace tool in Illustrator. WOW. i feel like i just read the bible for the first time or something. i have to jet to work (GO BROWNS!) but here is a tiny snippet of a project i am converting to digital:

third (good morning)

here is my completed Klingon project. basically, we created a completely new typeface from an old one, hence the name. i think it turned out pretty well, and i got lots of Illustrator experience. someday soon i will learn it!




there are a few little errors, but i fixed them after printing it. sweet! we saw the Features last night... AWESOME. i might post some pics and video later. we got to meet them and got their autographs as well. good times.

second (where's my milk and honey?)

so, we've been doing some stuff in Illustrator for my studio class. i do NOT know how to use illustrator, for realzies. i can't believe that i managed to put together my entrance exam in that program!

here are some examples of the typeface research pages i've been doing. more pictures soon of some sketchbook drawings (including me as Dr. Girlfriend from Venture Bros) and the fabulous Klingon project! also, don't forget my birthday next week :) i love art supplies, cash, and fancy beer/wine.

first.

well this is the new blog i set up to document my design work, and possibly other college hijinx. i guess i will create some pictures and info SOON.

but in the meantime, make sure to go VOTE today! also, i've been listening to this a lot lately:





i highly suggest it. a coworker and i are going to see them in Cincinnati next weekend and i am excited.

see you soon!
