Working/logo

Lately I've been working on my school's Diversity Club's logo. Personally I think this is a awesome logo but I might have over did it just a little bit.It was a weird concept for a logo they wanted a orange tree, different flowers and also tomatoes. I know pretty weird for a logo but I got the job done I'm not going to show you guys the finished product but here is a sample.

I have a few minor touches that I have to do in Adobe Illustrator, the finished product should be on it's way soon and hopefully I win that $200.

Banner

This is the banner that I have been working on for a while now it should of been finished a week ago but I've been too lazy to finish it. I kept it pretty simple to say the least just tying to figure out Photoshop.


I am getting better each day as I practice. In class we are getting more in depth with my major as the year progresses. The style I used is influenced by EWOK ONE himself, the style is a mixture of collage textures mixed with regular colors. The word ''JERI'' is a combination of cool colors which gives it a faded look so the pencil can stand out. Looking at the banner I have room for improvement but as time goes on I will get better. This is just the beginning stages so stay tuned for more.

Class Work

This is something I've been working on for my first project for my Computer Imagery class. It is pretty simple it was my first time using Photoshop and it turned out pretty good.  I was watching one of my all time favorite movies Goofy Movie and it just came to be ''STAY Groove''. I had to reach back into my graffiti days to make this. Enough talk here is my first project and attempt at Adobe  Photoshop.


 It came out pretty good I used some complimentary colors so all the letters in STAY came out perfectly. Adobe Photoshop is not easy and I applaud anyone who knows how to use it.

[SN] I am currently working on the banner for the blog so be on the lookout for that as the days progress or maybe even today.

What Going On?

What's going on folks?! Right now I am busy with school, writing papers, doing projects, studying, and much more. I'm working on the blog trying to make it look presentable, I have also been working on a banner for the blog. The banner will be something simple I have already sketched it out now I have to put it in the computer fix it up and it should be up by next week. Lastly I am trying to make it to The High Museum of Art sometime next week because the famous street artist KAWS will be in town. I have to attend this event and will take pictures to show you guys. So stay tuned for more. 

AFRO

This was a quick painting that I did a while ago back before I started this blog. The painting does not have a true meaning but it represents natural beauty. Most of the paintings I do have realistic people in them in their natural setting. This is just practice that kept me busy and kept my hands moving in order for me to advance my skills. I call this painting Afro and their are will be more to come so stay tuned for more.

Women In Art

My history professor showed us this at the beginning of class and sad this is the evolution of women that have been painted over the years. The video is called Women In Art, it showcases 500 different pieces of artwork with women in them. Watching this I was amazed at how the masters of the art did these pieces from skin tones all the way to the complex backgrounds. In this video you will see plenty of different style artworks from the Renaissance Age to the more Pop Art that we see common in our culture. I also have to commend the editor who pieced all these wonderful pieces of artwork together. You can tell this took time and effort because of how the changes flow together smoothly. I was deeply impressed and inspired after watching this from beginning to end as a true artist you will be amazed at what they did in those times. I'm not going to talk much more about I want you guys to check it out for yourself.

Little Black Book

This is something that every artist has or should have some call it a sketch book others their studies but I call it my little black book. Whatever you call it is a place where your imagination and your creativity runs free. In this blog I am going to draw something everyday to show you guys my progression and to further my skills as an artist.

My first drawing in my black book a teddy bear drug lord.

Yes I know these are some bad pictures but hey it is all I got for now so stay tune for more.
