Inside of Brochure

This is the inside of my brochure. All of these pictures are my personal photos that I took when I was on the island. This is by far my favorite island. I tried to point out some of the very unique qualities of the island in the brochure. The color scheme is the same as the front of the brochure with an added map of the island. (this is clip art). I really enjoyed this project.

Final Brochure

This is the back of my Brochure. I turned it into a mailer. I like the colors and the simple graphics. The stamp is a clip art but everything else is an illustrator element.

Lesson 9 Webpage Sample

This was a lot of fun! This is something that I have been working on little by little, I want to create a personal website for myself where I can share all of my fun adventures. I've had this put together in my head for a while but seeing it here makes me change my mind. I thought I wanted a lot of color but now i see that it could be an eye sore. I will most likely leave the background the way it is and take all of the Pink colors out of the forefront. I made my own symbols for facebook etc so they match the style of the page. I made them all 3D as well so they look like they are bouncing around at the bottom of the page.

Animal Drawing_ Lesson 2

I decided to draw a giraffe this time. I used the gradient mesh tool and blur effects several times to make this guy. I don't like his nose very much, it looks too cartoony but I like it overall. =))

Poster 1 = Maqbool Fida Husain

       I chose to make my poster for Maqbool Fida Husain because he was one of the first artists of India to challenge the perception of Hindu gods and goddesses. Husain depicted the Hindu Gods in the nude which made his art highly controversial as well as uniquely coveted.  Due to the critisim his of his art along with legal battles Husain ultimately exiled himself from India. He went on to be the highest paid Indian artist in the world and his paintings fetch millions of dollars at auction. Husain lived a full and interesting life, he once a member of Rajya Sabha and had been decorated with India’s second highest award Padma Vibhushan. Husain’s art is dramatic and diverse. I had the pleasure of personally viewing his art at the San Jose Art Museum as part of a collection for “Roots in the Air, Branches Below” which show cases Modern Art of India       The four images under the text are clips of his actual work, they are some of my favorite. The horse at the bottom is my own play-off of his work.
