Graphic arts: October 2007 Archives

I've been busy cranking out page designs and illustrations..

This is an annual page design that kicks off our Holiday Cookie contest.
I don't have the story so what you see is dummy copy to give me a feel for the overall design. When, I finally do get the copy the design of the page will change, sometimes it's a dramatic change.

This is an illustration to accompany a story about "When people should quit" or in this case, when to jump ship.

One of the coolest things about working in Adobe Illustrator is the Photoshop like effects that can be generated. Word of caution, using too many filters will slow down your redraw time and could cause your computer to crash.

I had my first Adobe Flash CS3 class at PCA&D. I went to PCA&D and graduated in 98, I think (it's been awhile) http://www.pcad.edu/

The class was great and have already picked up a few pointers.

Another great thing about heading back to downtown Lancaster is the influence of art is alive and thriving.

I went into this really cute, little store called Metropolis.

I ended buying a small toy for my boss. (my review is coming up and I thought it couldn't hurt to suck up) It's created by Nathan Jurevicius.
