Doll Dresses

All little girls enjoy dressing their dolls.  I never thought I would be doing the same for a class at the tertiary level.  It became another moment where I brought out my crafty side (not to mention the little girl inside).   I had a fun-tabulous time making these dresses; I really enjoy making things with my hands. 

I made these doll dresses for an animation I did for school.  The assignment was to do an animation using two random words which we picked from a bag.  My words were "waterfall" and "line"; so I naturally decided to make a "Waterfall Line" of dresses and have the dolls model them on a cat walk which I also made out of card board and other things. 

Sketch

This sketch was done for a logo idea for a pet shop .The name of the pet shop was "Family Friends".I eventually scraped the idea and went with a simpler image but I liked the sketch anyway.

Portraits

This week I am showcasing some portraits I did .  As you can see, I need help with shading techniques .and texture.  I am trying to learn new technique everyday so I will keep practicing and do some more portraits in the future.

Movie Poster

This week I have decided to showcase some of my Graphic Design work.  This was a Movie Poster I did for school in Photoshop.  The project was to come up with an original movie and create a poster for it.  The star of my movie was myself, of course, and my boyfriend who is seen here as the vampire.

Domino Effect

Domino Effect
"A series of similar or related events occurring as a direct and inevitable result of one initial event". (Collins English Dictionary).

This is my first graphic piece displayed on the site.  It was done in Adobe Illustrator. It was one of my class project, another work I feel obliged to share with you all.   Each student was given a word to create a design that best depicts the word.   My word was "domino".  

Vision

I've heard its called "mind mapping".  It is a wonderful depiction of one's vision or goals using pictures and words.  Despite being an assignment for one of my classes, it became a referral to help me stay focused.  This is a picture of my goals and how I see myself in the distant future.   The most important is my goal as a Graphic Design student.   I look forward to owning my Bachelor's Degree.  The other things within my periphery are important as well, but my main focus is finishing my degree.

This drawing is full of colour and depicts  a self portrait of myself in my graduation gown.  I am hopeful that this will true for I know the heavenly Father above will give me the strength and will to make it come true.  

Artfully Restoring My Old Mobile Case

Hi, everyone.  This week I though it would be nice to extend my creativity in the most unsuspecting ways.  My old mobile case was the perfect canvas for my ideas.  So instead of throwing it away, I restored it.  This is recycling at its best.

I used nail polish to paint my abstract design; a clear coat of nail polish was added last to seal and give the art a gloss look.  This project was fun to paint.  I had a few brilliant colours of nail polish to paint my design.  Colours that would definitely stand out anywhere.   However, while I  was working on it, I did not know how the final piece would turn out.  When it was done, I was totally pleased.  Now, this piece of work goes everywhere with me.  I think it turned out fine, what's your opinion?
