Oh snap! Hello art blog, how are you? I guess I don't feel *too* bad for neglecting this thing. I'm sure no one reads it anyway.

New year, new semester, new projects.

Communications: campaign on ED (eating disorders, mind you. get your head out of the gutter!)
Type: quote animation/film titles
EM: storyboarding/animation/a bunch of lame stuff
Pictorial Foundation: painting (acrylic, oil)

The other two classes are liberal arts classes. No one cares about those, hahaha! I will post samples of my stuff later. I don't know how much later, but later.

One month later...

I turned 21. The invite you see two posts below didn't go out like that. I added a gradient of pink squares to make this funky checkerboard pattern. Eh. Now it's time to design the thank you cards. That'll be fun.

Anyway, here's what I'm up to:

MAJOR BARBARA, the second (and final) play of the semester. We wrapped up Mockingbird a couple of weeks ago and the poster that won...well...it was okay. I much preferred Cathy's poster of the two. Heck, I even preferred mine, but that's okay.

Mockingbird poster (final):



Major Barbara (WIP):



(It's not really crunched like that, Photoshop just took the liberty of removing half of my border when I imported the file to convert it to a JPEG.)

Then in pictorial foundation, we're working on shadow box drawings. We had to make/find a box that was around the dimensions of 11" x 14" and fill it with stuff that represents ourselves in a theme. I chose all things Asian (though the majority of the things glued in/to my box are from Japan. Go figure.



I'm also the official designer for Ladies of Service, an organization at school.



^That's the image I'm going to pitch to the VP tomorrow in a flyer I'm designing. Oi.

So my birthday is is two months and 18 days away. I've been trying to convince my mom to throw me a 21st birthday party since I declined their suggestion for me to have a sweet sixteen.

Anyway, my mom said to me today randomly, "Send invitations to Di Bay and Di Nam and email Lan."

It's party time, people. So here goes nothin:



=] That's my invitation design. Like it? Love it? Would want to rip it to shreds?

For the summer class I took, Greece: Democracy and Empire, we had the choice of writing an 8-10 page paper or a creative project that includes a 4-6 page paper. Naturally I chose the creative project.
