Graphics





This is what my concentration in college was. Of course this is nowhere near all of the projects I had in those classes, but they're a start. I'm going to have them categorized slightly different than most of the other art pages here, because the categories are very different. Eventually I will be able to scan the drawn images from Graphics 1 to post here as well, but for now this class mostly covers Graphics 2a, 2b and 3.



"Bill Of Rights"


This is a bit of a rarity. It's a project from one of my earliest Design 2a projects that I have a digital photo of on the computer. This one was done in Quark eXpress. We had to create a poster with the first five amendments to the U.S. Constitution The picture is obviously taken at an angle, as the actual poster is rectangular. I think I like the simplicity in this picture.





"Lady of Lourdes"


These are a couple of logos from Graphics 2a for a contest held by a Catholic church in Ada that was celebrating its 125th anniversary. The prize was five hundred dollars, if memory serves. I didn't win. Honestly (and unsuprisingly), I could have done much better now. I did however sell these two for about twenty dollars to a friend. Thanks Connie!








"Food Projects"

Over the time in my classes I have had several food label design projects. These pages will cover those, hopefully.

Eventually there will be a few more here, once I get them to a point I like them enough to post them.

Deep Blue Tuna

Persephone's Chocolate



"The Zoo"

These are more images from Graphics 2b. Thsi was a very fun project. We took a trip to the Cincinatti Zoo and studied their signage (and the animals of course). Then we came back and had to design imaginary signage (yeah that really IS a word) for another zoo. I was dating a girl from Van Wert and so I chose Fort Wayne, because we were hanging out there a bit. I went with a roadsign motif, and traced the animals from actual photographs in Adobe Illustrator. One of my favorite classmates even asked me if I used clipart for them; a question I'm not sure whether I was offended by, or flattered by.

The Endangered Species Sign

The Blue Heron Lake Sign

The Penguin Palace Sign

"Noodges"


This is sort of a self-imposed project. I worked at a fledgling Coffee Shoppe/Restaurant early in my Senior year and made friends with the owner. I've done some odd jobs since, like this one. I designed the Logo for Noodges that is seen on the coupon as well as doing the layout. I think it's a fairly successful piece, for a coupon

The coupon is marked void and is out-of-date, so no one try to pull any funny business with it, ok? Thanks in advance!
