Here's the next development in the Muffin project. The client wants a more playful, less representational drawing, however.
These are thumbs and sketches for our stamp project. We are doing a series of four.






These guys are sketches for the accompanying paintings in the Baker's Dozen t-shirt contest (the shirts are posted on my last blog). I've done the paintings and had them photographed, but I'll have to post them next time.
Happy Valentine's Day, everyone! Or if you prefer, Singles Awareness Day.

t-shirt finale!

Here's the t-shirt in full vector glory. I used the mesh tool like there was no tomorrow. Might have something to do with the fact that I just love drawing chickens. Who knows? Anyway, I would like to enter it into the Threadless.com ongoing contest, but that's a time-issue. In other words, I may not get around to it, what with the rest of my homework and all.

Our next project is about visual metaphors. I've already done some sketches, which I will post within seven days.

Also, another site to see my work is whiterose54.deviantart.com, my sort of personal blog. I don't update it as frequently, but there is a small gathering of some past pictures worth checking out.

Progress...

A color sketch for my t-shirt, then what I did with the extra paint.

I'd like to post some of my other work, like from my computer graphics class, but I'm struggling with my older version of Adobe. I'll try and figure it out later.

For now, courage.

I also hope to post some comics soon.

T-shirt winners (sort of)

Here are my final three designs. From here, I'll pick one to recreate in Illustrator. I've chosen the chicken one, a bit from a comic I did last semester. The greatest thing about it is that it needs no text and no explanation. Well, maybe.

The other two are good, but they don't hold the same charm as the chicken. Now all I have to do is come up with the chicken's color scheme.

My first post! T-shirt designs.

Hi, everyone!  This is my first time to have an actual blog, so here goes:

This week our class is working on designing t-shirts.  So far I have 60 thumbnails, and I have about 6 pages of printed designs I found at www.threadless.com and various other sites.  I must admit I'm heavily influenced by stuff like tuxedo and bikini t-shirts.  Also, I really love novelty t-shirts that have a funny picture and relating text.  So I built my designs around these two ideas, and here are a couple of quick scans of what I came up with.

They are in pencil and sketchy, so if there's anything you can't figure out, just let me know.
