wow, this came out different when I printed it but this post is completely different. But I like it kinda crazy.

Harmonious

A new semester a new digital class hopefully this means more posts. This was for my digital imaging class. It is suposed to be an emotion, but I went for the feeling of Harmonious.... well at least I am learning how to use photoshop.

Pioneer Cut Out

Our Pioneer Day contribution, I made this for the ward party and let people take polaroid pictures. I threw it together in two days after planning it for 6 months.

A Few Heads

These are all from this last semester but I had them in a digital format so might as well post them I could go a lot tighter with most of them but the blue one is hopeless the subject is just too ugly. That guy needs to cheer up.

Get in line

So I really like conceptual illustration trying to illustrate an idea with an image. For these two a line of people helped me illustrate the idea not necessarily the story. The first is Robert Johnson at the Crossroads the second is an article about Employers compensating employees for travel/gas spent getting to work.

A Cricket in Times Square

This is a multi color reductive wood cut it is backwards of how times square is actually set up but I got the results of an overwhleming big city with its bright lights and constant commotion. the Cricket is almost getting stepped on to add to his anxiety.

Wanted Allergens

Here's a newer one for you Lael and everyone not in my Illustration 2 class. It is a conceptual illustration on food allergies.

There are a few things I still need to fix and the scan is a little blurry but I like the way the concept comes across.

FROSTY

This is a wood block print of my dog Frostbite. It was done by carving the image out of wood and then printing the relief onto paper. The last piece I posted was a scratchboard it is different and some would say less authentic version of getting a similar result.

Elias Chacour

Scratch board of the Israeli christian priest I did it after being inspired from his book Blood Brothers
