business card

My business cards were pretty simple to design and not to hard on the eyes. I was trying for a simple design, because nobody really would want a complex one.

Logo Design

Illustrator chrome tutorial

This tutorial was so complicated im suprised i even made it this far...

Mesh

This was really weird and confusing. I didnt really understand what i needed to be doing so i kinda just fooled around. the hardest part was probably just trying to shape it cause i had no idea what it was supposed to look like!

Cool logo

This design was pretty easy. The only real challenge was arranging all the letters and making them come together the right way.

pumpkin project

This pumpkin design was super hard! The tutorial was pretty difficult to understand as well, but the hardest part was probably getting all the colors down and the live paint affects with the brushes and stuff. it took a lot of time and patience i think. both the easiest part was actually the carvings.

Flower and Vase

Personal expression

Alrighty, so my goal for this image was to have sort of a kid kind of feel to it. So i added all the childish fonts and put the kid characteristics of myself. I also wanted to put the fact that i'm a freaking genius in there so i added all the big words like extroverted, and gregarious. I decided when i used the word extroverted to make the letters really spaced out and have it kind of centered at the top so it would be a little bit emphasized. I also added the graffiti like font to show a little bit of my artistic side. I wanted loud to be huge letters cause it's really what i am, like outside of school and some classes in school you cant get me to be quiet. i used the colors in the back to kind of give it a calming naturey feel. also cause before i live traced it i was on grass so i thought green would be a good gradient color for the background.

Alright, this is my copy of the Lakers logo. Which is actually much harder than it looks. Most of all because there is not really a font i could find that really went with it so i had to just type it in and transform each letter one by one and change every single anchor point the the right point. The hardest ones to do were actually the curved ones cause they had a lot of anchor points and when i tried to delete some of them it ended up screwing up the whole letter so i just had to deal with all the anchor points and do my best with what i had. Everything else besides the letters were pretty simple though. Just took a lot of time to do the letters.
