Explosion of Design

I have been playing with color and decided to create a few examples of fake books. In the process I even created a very colorful illustration. I am really enjoying these fake book covers.

Update

Just wanted to show a couple things I have been doing. Including a preview of the Children's Book I have been working on.

Doing Children's Book

I will be doing a children's book for the next few months! It should be a lot of fun and help further my career. The subject matter is right up my skill set too. Be looking out for updates on this.

One week - Fully functional site

Well, I did a big haul this past week. It started Monday, August 25th, and it was done and ready by September 1st. That includes a phpBB forum with a mini chat I had to install myself. From sketch to finish it was about a week and a half. Here is the project board:


It was a lot of fun to make and it came out beautifully. I worked with two coders to get all the details down, and the administrator provided all the text. The colors were modified from a palette the Admin wanted. Everyone is pretty happy with how everything came out. And it is fully functional.

Donations

Well, as most people notice. I love animals and from this love of animals I created a series of adoption pieces. That is what that series on vector cats was for. In addition to creating those, I also tailored a few of my other pet images and sent an emailed packet of free graphics to a few of the local animal welfare organizations around Columbus. Hopefully they can find somewhere to use them.

Tweaked

Tweaked up my site so it is a bit more professional. I feel really good about the work on there. Here are a few little things I've done. I had a lot of fun with them, especially in palette selection. I think the colors are very nice together.

Life carries on

The creative juices are flowing. A lot has been going on and I am still on the hunt for work. I have developed a pretty good style of my own. Planning my wedding. Busy, busy, busy.
