Baked Goodies

Here are some preliminary shots of my final design for Becky's Baked Goods. I really need to get some decent photos of these because I'm really pleased with the results and I need photos that showcase my work better. Really I need a camera. Oh well. I'm very happy with the the way everything turned out even if the prints were a little darker then I wanted. I'll post more pictures when I can get a camera and some better lighting.

Second verse, same as the first.

I'm working on more postcard possibilities. I may be procrastinating my other homework just a bit. Any whoo this was a "second" idea for my postcards... I'm having trouble figuring out just what I want to do with these and honestly with them changing the show so we all are on the same night with only two pieces I'm not sure why I'm putting so much time into these... I'm kinda having fun with it though. Any ways feel free to tell me what you think. Two different color combination and well. Just stating the obvious now. Awesome.

Seinor Show Post cards...

I've been working on some announcement postcards for my Senior Show. I've been working with a bunch of different colors and different placement.. Now I'm worried that the image itself might be to scandalous. Balls. Ten hours of work.

Logo and go and go and go

I'm currently working on a couple different project, namely Becky's Baked Goods and the Suquamish Tribe Museum. Guess what both these group need? LOGOS!!!! Yay logos... my favorite.

Really though I had a lot of fun making these. Becky's Baked Goods is pretty much done but I feel that the Tribe needs help. My brain is le' tired. Anyways, this is pretty much what I've been working on in the second week of my final semester. Wow. Scary. Real world here I come. Ha ha

Oh also I went and saw Thor the other day and I must say I highly recommend it. Course I saw it in an IMax 3D theater. That certainly helped.

Becky's Baked Goods!

I am currently starting a project that will consist of the branding, packaging and some advertisement of a hypothetical bakery. So far I have some ideas outlined and a general theme and color scheme. Feel free to leave a comment and tell me what you think!

Still looking for an internship and I'm getting a bit discouraged but still trying. Frustration. Gah.

Cards and beyond

Took some glamor shots today of my finished cards for my House O' Cards. I really like the way they came out though I'm not super happy with the glamor shots. I don't feel that you can really see what I'm trying to do in the pictures of the cards. Any ways I'm also working on finishing my senior thesis and continuing my mythical creature book as well as trying to find an internship and get my portfolio off the ground. Wheew... lots ta do, my friends, lots ta do.

Another one

Meet Mr. Centaur. Four hours of work but at least it's pretty much done. I rather like him but I'm not too happy with the background. Oh well.

House of Cards

This is a couple of the card designs I'm trying out for my newest design project. We are supposed to explore duality with one side having a typography emphasis. This is what I've come up with so far. We have Peer review tomorrow so this might be changing drastically if everyone hates it... hahaha...

Guess not

My painting didn't win. Sad face. Oh well I still really like it and thought I'd post it even though it's a failure. Heh... Let me know what you think about it. The colors are a little off but it's pretty close.

Next in a long line

I'm working on a short book for my portfolio class about mythical creatures. I wanted to include thirty different creatures but realistically I think I'll be lucky to get ten done by the end of the semester.

I guess this will become an ongoing project.

Anyways I have a couple of the done or mostly done illustrations for it on my website, which is MarieWilcoxArt if you're interested but I just colored a hippocampus and wanted to put it up here. You know, for funzies.

Enjoy!

New Blog

Well looks like I've got a new blog I need to keep up with. Hurray! I'll try and keep up to date with what I'm doing.

At the moment I just finished a painting I'm hoping will be submitted to NorWesCon, a regional sci-fi/fantasy convention that's featuring a scholarship for NCA. Keep your fingers crossed! Here's the site. http://www.norwescon.org/

Anyways I've got some new concept art for our newest design homework. I'll put that up when I can scan it.

Also my family's coming to visit me this weekend so I'm very excited about that.

Guess that's a good update, Toodles!
