A new identity...but still the same old me?!

Well, I just sent out a few more resumes/cover letters to design /marketing/advertising firms. I have heard responses back from 2 companies looking to set up an interview in the coming weeks, which is great. So hopefully I will set something up for the coming semester. I thought I would post the new mark I made for myself a couple weeks ago. i like it...it has a clean and modern look to it. I am just not sure yet about the color...I keep going back and forth between this bluish-gray color and a lime green color. But here's the mark...let me know what you think.

Very cute...

These are just the greatest letterpress cards from Paper Wheel Press for your valentine. I love the simple illustrations and the clever message. Someday ...maybe I'll get my own letterpress machine to make my own.

Or if you just need to say I'm sorry to that special someone...

I wish I had more time to sketch....

Ahh...its finals week and I'm already up until 2 am and its only Monday. Although I would like to post my finished project but I haven't quite gotten there yet. So here is some illustrations that I love and just inspire me to sketch and draw more....what I would much rather being doing on a Sunday.

Illustrations are by Matte Stehpens

Legos...

It was my brothers birthday last week and he got a great present...the John Hancock Building for Legos (oh and he turned 27). While I was browsing the web today (while I'm supposed to be studying) I came across these great legos of architecture by Frank Lloyd Wright. I'll have to make sure my brother sees these for his Christmas list...

Reconstruct Frank Lloyd Wright's Fallingwater 

or the Guggenheim out of Legos. 

I can...

So True.

In My Opinion....

I love fall. I took this picture last fall for my black and white photography class. I think there are so many great moments in this picture...like the shadows of the leaves on the wooden plank to the left...your eyes are constantly moving throughout the picture. It also has an eerie sense to it, which I love.

Flu season is here...vitamins anyone

I keep meaning to post my past projects but I haven't gotten around to it, but this one seems necessary to post considering the time of year that is upon us. I did this project for a packaging class last spring. I came up with the name, logo, packaging, a promotional brochure, and point of purchase. These vitamins are geared towards young adults who might not be familiar with all the benefits of the different types of vitamins. I created a clear message on the packages that made it easy for people to chose the one that best suits their needs. Stay tuned for my current take on vitamins for the H1N1 virus....
