Design Stuff//Hairstylist Business Card

card2
I had so much fun doing this design for my friend Jessica. She wanted a vintage-y style with a classy twist. I wanted so badly to load it up with floral, but she isn't as much of a floral lover as I am. I am very happy with how it came out though, and it was very good practice with the pen tool for me.

I love creating little icons, and I especially liked making these because they are so vintage-y and cute. I think I've even reused a few since be because I love them so much.

They are so small on the card, meant to be more of a background pattern than icons per say.

I even made her a cute stamp in case she ever wants to stamp something...or everything. I love stamps, especially personalized ones. Plus, this stamp inks itself soooooo that makes it 10000x awesomer.

Life//Art School

So I am currently going to school for my bachelors of fine arts degree with a concentration in graphic design. We have to do such weird projects that sometimes end up being something pretty cool. For this specific project we had to pick an musical artist and describe them with 4 adjectives. Then we had to find various images in magazines and books that fit into the 4 categories. Then we had to do like a bazillion collages with them. My teacher calls them "mondo collages." At the end of the millions and millions of collages we had to do (all in photoshop, mind you), we had to then use the collages to create a cd design for the artist of our choice. I chose Kate Nash and my adjectives were crazy, feminine, retro, and colorful.

CD1
A lot of my collages had animals puking various things. My professor made fun of me for that a lot.

CD3
The script font is Wolf in the City and the sans serif font is Univers.

CD2
Some of my collages ended up so weird looking. Let's all take a gander at that flower monster with boobs for eyelashes, shall we?

I have found that sometimes you cannot be afraid of making something that is crazy or weird looking, especially with art and design. I love that I can take risks in my school work, the experimentation is what helps you learn the most.
