Sorry I'm late on my post for last week. I'm working on a monogram for Molly & Will's wedding. They loved the invitations I designed, and I think they are leaning towards the more photographic version with the wheat image in the background. Molly really loved the wheat pattern and type in the other option, which ...
This is a 2nd concept for my friend's wedding invitations. I'm liking the pattern, but I'm not sure it's used in the most dynamic way. A square format might help, but she said that would be too expensive to mail. Ps, the colors are showing up a bit funky in the post, but it should ...
Believe it or not, I've never been asked to design a wedding invitation. To be honest, I may have even volunteered for this one. This is one concept I'm thinking about showing her. Her invitations are going to be very basic-- digital, 1-sided, 4x6-ish. I chose the wheat for more than just a pretty texture, ...
Here's my stab at a logo. I wanted to try a couple ideas,something clean and simple and something that spoke towards the diversity of the blog. I liked the idea of having a little bit of random-ness and layering so I was trying a collage approach. I've been staring at this for so long — ...
I made an update to the brussels sprout illustration, or shall I say... 'brassica oleracea gemmifera'. I spent quite a bit of time researching useless information trying to find something, anything, that would make a nice little scientific chart. I decided to just sketch multiple views of the brussels sprout. May have been a cop-out, ...
I love the process of cooking. I especially love chopping fresh fruits and vegetables (when I'm not in a rush) because they are so beautiful. I've been wanting to try some sort of food illustration so I thought a good way to do that was to make a few prints that feel a little like ...
Well, I've officially committed the ultimate Designer Co-op sin. I missed two posts in a row. November has been a busy month for me, as I'm sure it was for the rest of you. I moved to a new apartment in the beginning of the month and went to East London, South Africa for a ...
I decided to try something slightly different for this post, but still somewhat related to the paper doll set I'm working on. I wanted to do an exploration in color (and texture) with collage. I started with a photograph because I wanted to get the idea across quickly, plus I like the contrast when elements ...
My apologies for missing my post last week. Wish I could say I've done two posts to make up for it. However, that isn't the case. But check out this coat I painted (minus the bow-I used the bow from the image). Let me know what you think.
I did some more sketches for the figure base as well as a few other tidbits. I cut off most of the heads, frankly because they were quite ugly. Not quite sure what to do with the arms...Having both hands by the sides feels a bit too dry and boring, which I don't think is ...
