Quick Poster Designs

Here are a few band poster designs I did for a friend. He just needed something quick and simple to print out and hang around to get word out about his show. My only limitation is that it had to be black and white and be able to print on 8.5 by 11 paper. They are in older in which I completed them. The last one being the one with Pointe Shoes. It is still a work in progress but it shows how you can sketch using the computer. Throwing images together in different ways to get a certain feel for the finished product. I think the last one is pretty close to what the finish will look like. Now I will just focus more on the type and make sure just as much care is put into the type as was put into the image.

Final 2 hour painting

Here is another painting I've done in less than  two hours. It is a quick still life painting done in acrylic paint.

We Danced, by Brad Paisley

This was a senior project that I did. I wanted to practice story boarding and it seemed like a good idea to do a story board to a song. I chose a song that didn't have a music video so I could make my own thing out of it. It was an interesting experience. Now that I've done this once, I can experiment more and take more risks. 

Another Old Animation

This is a video I did my Junior year. It's based off of an illustration I did my sophomore year. The illustration assignment was to do a narrative. So I made a silly story, illustrated it and then made a short animation using Photoshop and Final Cut Pro.

Flashback! Jumping into Paintings

This is a video I made my freshman year of college in 2008. Wow, seems like such a long time ago. My first time experimenting with aftereffects and photoshop and final cut pro. And naturally I used myself as my main character:) It was actually an assignment to make a video about ourselves with a superpower we would want. Hopefully it is obviously what power I would want.

Another 2 hour painting

Here is another 2 hour painting. It may have been a little less than 2 hours but you get the idea. This one is a seascape. The picture isnt the greatest but I think that I am getting back into painting again. It's exciting to be excited about painting again. I even bought some watercolor painting supplies from work the other day in hopes that I get better at watercolor again. At least that is a step in a direction.
