More drawing for Opening Bank Account

This time I added more personal taste of mine, which is stencil. I enjoyed creating the pattern and adding the texture on fish.

open your bank account in UK

I started a new project for Commonplace, a student survival guide to University of the Arts London.

The given topic is how to open a bank account in UK. It is always tricky to create an account, especially for international students. I know it because I had same experience when I came to London... 

To make the information simpler and clearer, I am supposed to use simple words and illustration to support the explanation. I am thinking of using a treasure box and a key to open it, and maybe some dangerous animals for some info which you need be very careful about.

where is sun

I wanna go traveling.

"in search of Nair"

As I mentioned before, I am doing some stop motion animations for my friend who is making a documentary film about her lost mother.

In addition of animations, I have been asked to do typography for the credit and names of the interviewees in the film. We might use some of my illustrations for the credit as well...

Credentials

I have another task to be finished by thursday. This image will be the cover of my CD-R that contains my pdf portfolio. I used there small drawings for my cv, pdf portfolio, and even title of blog! (you can see it on top of blog, yeah?) They are not just random doodles...Each represents part of me. For example, the compass means that I am from a great distance away, and also means my pathway to illustration. Bird is my passion for drawing animals, and the rabbit in the hole is my hidden potential to be revealed...Well I will not explain any more or it will sound a bit too dramatic. But you can guess what the fork expresses, can't you :D

My "the Owl and the Pussycat"

Yesterday, we had the crit for our final project, illustration for short stories.

This project was quite free and I enjoyed making sweets for children's recipe book, but I also had difficult time with photography and editing. (I am still not happy enough with the composition!)

But thanks for this project, I learnt a lot of new things...

Other classmates' works were brilliant!! So many different ideas, techniques!

ok, time to blog!!!

 Haven't uploaded my blog for ages...but it doesn't mean I wasn't doing creative works!!

I've been so so busy, doing 3 different projects for uni, and some other personal projects. The photos above are taken for one of uni projects which is illustration for a short story. Yes, "illustration". Who says you can only draw with pen and ink to tell a story??

 The given story I chose is "the Owl and the Pussycat". Since this is nonsense poem which is about the owl and the pussycat getting married, I decided to create crazy nonsense sweets for their wedding. I made 4 different scenes with different sweets for each, and took about 500 photos... But I strongly feel I need to know more technique for photograph...

Anyway, I will chose nicer of all, and edit to make a recipe book for children. I may add some hand drawings on the images...
