Welcome to 2011! The sky is falling!

With a new year comes some changes.

As far as this blog goes,I am going to be updating weekly, in hopes of helping my writing. I'm starting on scripts and re-writing alot of  old stories I didn't finish.I have alot I need to do when it comes to my career and I need to start ASAP. This is my last year at school (maybe) and I need to step up my game! I'm also going to not take on too much at once. I did that last semester and got my bum handed to me.

Here's some of my best work I did for last semester:

This was done for an assigment in Graphic Drawing. Had to combine a bunch of pictures. I used my favorite band Joy Division.

For Imaging and Design, We made ads for Pierre's Ice cream. This is how mines came out. 

This is going to be the new layout for this blog, once I fix it up. 

Another one for Imaging and Design. We made a CD cover for our annual folktales CD.


Illustration Design done for GD.

For I&D, we had to combine two movie posters. I choose to do "Control" and "Ghost World". It came out pretty well, minus the font.  

One of the things I learned about Photoshop and Illustrator is to keep doing things over and over. They are both crazy software and will piss you off numerous of times, but the more you use it,the more you'll get use to it's evil trickery and can stop it from really messing up your work. 
Also save! I think I have 47 copies of all these projects. I learned the hard way about the this.

This year is going to bring big changes in my life. I am more focused and determined to do alot of new work this year and to give myself a chance to really do what I love. I am also going to move in the summer, which means my own space and a place to able to concentrate on my work and other things. I currently live in such disarray I can't think straight! And I want a place I can decorate and make my own! :3

Plans I have for the upcoming year:
-Start the Un-Adventures of Jay and Nikki as a weekly comic.
-Move.
-Work on other stories.
-Do more design work.
-Spend more time reading.
-Bike more
-Take more chances.
-Do everything thing I can to more in the right direction.

Besides this blog I am also going to be doing the daily sketch project, and I may start a 365 project again but doing something different with it. I'm also starting a "What I wore today blog" on tumblr. Which is a place to show my daily outfits.  http://fashionformutants.tumblr.com/  Nothing on there yet because I haven't gotten any good outfits together. Next week hopefully.

I am going to make this an productive year.

This year will bring exciting events!
