Exquisite Corpse

For this assignment I had to construct a picture that was drawn by the class. The original image looks very similar to this with some minor tweaks. I chose to do a simple background so it would not take away from the detail of the corpse. I managed to have fun with this project and am happy with my final product!

Here are the 5 original brainstorms for my Outside the Wire logo. I decided to go with the second idea as my final logo.

Logo Project 1

This is my final logo for the company Outside the Wire. This company is an idea created by a soldier in the army. His company's purpose is to create military shirts for people in the military and their families. I have been working on this project for a few weeks now and am finally relieved to say it is complete! To construct this logo I used Adobe Illustrator, though I had zero experience with this program I pulled through. This project has taught me a various amount of tools offered by illustrator. I am excited to learn all that this program has to offer with future projects.

Caligramme sunset

My caligramme is a sunsetting across the ocean. The sun is filled with lyrics from the Kenny Chesney song "No Shoes, No shirt, No Problem. The waves are represented by the words "Free Waves", and the colorful skies created by the sunset is just the word "Sunset" repeated over and over again. I enjoyed making this caligramme though I struggled through most of it.
