Prism cover ideas

This cover idea is one I actually came up with on a 3 hour bus ride after a double-header this weekend on the way to Virginia Beach. I thought for just a little bit and wanted something colorful. I wanted something colorful and I wanted something that illustrated different ways in which color can appear. I came up with 3 different ways to use display the same color palette which ultimately represents the different perspectives of a prism. So, here it is :)

For the first time instead of thinking...thinking and more thinking for ideas, I just started drawing what I wanted to see for this Prism cover. The title needs tweeking but I am satisfied with the flowers and the layout. This cover option is working for me. Since Spring is approaching I have been inspired by flowers. As I look at photos and real flowers in nature, I am starting to see so much character and personality in them. I see flowers and blooms with the Prism cover because the Prism includes written pieces from a multitude of students here at Peace College. Being that a prism portrays the different perspectives of one object, I think flowers are appropriate being that their wonderful rich, bright colors and breeds can have so many different interpretations and meanings. More idea's to follow :)

Declare your Major Poster 1

More Fetal Alcohol poster drafts!

I am secretly hoping this is the final poster for this particular idea. I doubt this is true, but hopefully!

This poster needs some revising but this is what I have so far! I would have liked to of printed onto a recycled paper bag material but since the poster is so large I am just going to show you what that might look like by cropping similiar paper in :) I am not sure how I feel about the D being a part of the liquid and how well the type reads but I will work on it :)

This is my newest poster idea...I got my sister to pose for me :) This poster is aimed to appeal towards a younger generation (high school and college). I used the text abbreviation "B4" as opposed to "before". I am going to keep trying this idea out. My current thoughts are that the bottom line is hard to read...and is it necessary? Also, I want to try a different treatment because I think the shattered glass is hard to see. Lastly, I think I want to take another picture where my model's pants are dropping to her ankles.

North Carolina State Fair Rain Barrel

This is the barrel I painted for the Rain Conservancy Program of Raleigh for the North Carolina State Fair. This was a really great opportunity for me to give back to my community. The barrel along with others were auctioned off and the proceeds were donated to the Conservancy Program of Raleigh. I had a good time painting this barrel...it was my first time painting so forgive me if it's not perfect! My barrel sold for the most money at $150. The barrel has a filter on the top and traps rain water when it rains so you can water your plants or whatever you want by hooking your hose up to the spiket at the bottom. But, I am looking forward to doing this again next year!

5 Gesture Illustrations

Imaging:

In imagining we were assigned the 5 gestures project. We had to start by doing 40 sketches of any object of our choice. I chose a MAC eyeshadow and I don't have a tablet so I had to draw all of these with a mouse. This was a neat assignment, I was able to become more familiar with the Illustrator tools and brushes.
