Childrens book spread.

Text for this page is: And as we are floating, something catches our eyes. A field full of flowers and blue butterflies.
I'm still working on my layouts for the other pages but I wanted to start painting one. I used watercolor and some of the elements of this painting will be used for my cover as well.

Start Here, Go Anywhere

I was given the phrase, "Start Here, Go Anywhere." My professor says that my grade may not be the best because he doesn't feel that I am being myself in my work. Nothing says SAM like crayons so this is what I came up with.

Pick up lines

For anyone who knows me, they know that I love pick up lines! They are always a good ice breaker and make great awkward moments. I had an assignment in 2009 to type set a book and create it. Instead of taking an already existing book, I chose to write a book of all my lines. Here are some pictures showing the book and the box that I made with it. I sewed a cover for the box out of an old pair of jeans and made sure that the back pocket was just inside the lid. It's a perfect sized pocket for a book of pick up lines. In the box itself, I made a pouch with the zipper and button. On the last page in the book it says that if any of the lines in the book are successful, you better check your zipper. When you look inside you see condoms. I love projects that allow me to be creative and make people laugh and I had plenty of fun with this one!
