Best Assignment So Far

This is my best assignment so far. I think that this one is my best because i didn't use just lines for the shape and texture and value, i used letters. I never thought that I can draw myself like that with a creative way to do it.

Illustration Blog
http://fineartamerica.com/featured/the-huntress-karin-kuhlmann.html
these incredible computer-art are categorized as abstract expressionism.
they are very interesting and as in the second one, you may see
things that are not there from someone else's perspective.
now they might not be considered cartoons, but these pieces of art are
computer-generated designs that really make you think about every aspect of art.

Illustation Blog
This artist shows his illustrations which are often inspired and centered around a single word.
Illustration Blogs
http://markerbored.blogspot.com/
This first one is a pretty chill blog that I found. The artist does his entire work on a white board. This whole blog is full of pictures of the drawings he has made on a whiteboard. I saw it and just thought it was kind of neat. These drawings aren't just simple doodles, they are the ENTIRE whiteboard. Idk. I really liked it. =)

This second one is pretty sweet too. Everything the author draws is on paper the size of sticky note! It is so sweet! Like drawings have so much detail on sucha small piece of paper. All the different sticky notes just seem pretty sweet.. and some of them are really funny. =)

this blog is very interesting. The designs are all really professional and fun to look at.
This picture was my favorite because it shows Steve Jobs made entirely from Apple products.

My Favorite Illustration & Blog


http://luisices.blogspot.com/2008/03/heavy.html
I like this illustration because the artist uses popart which makes very interest and funny. Also I think that the artist well uses layout. It seems more than one dimension.
My Favorite Illustration Blog
This is my favorite illustration because it gives two different feelings.
The background with the color and the vertical lines gives an urban/city vibe.
The image in the foreground is a tropical looking image and it gives the idea of paradise in the city.

Check Out these Illustrations!
Y'all should check Sarah Mensinga's site out, especially the example of model sheets (we will work on this in class next.)
Here is an illustration based on a Bright Eyes song...it has text integrated into the image (what we are working on right now.)
Here is a great example of exaggeration to really make the viewer understand the concept.
Here is a comic that gets published weekly, and sometimes less, sometimes more. It always has great content.
And for all your robot and monster needs check out Vanhoozerstudios.
Please also find your own comic/illustration blogs, and post links to them for others to see.
this font is very 1800 looking.
VERDANA is a font most used by companies.
LUCIDIA GRANDE is a font that is very comic looking

This font is a combination of decorative and script because it is in the form of graffiti which people draw/write in. It is also serif. It is my favorite because it’s fun and looks funky

This is decorative because on the top of the letters is frost/snow and the letters look icy.
This is script because it looks like someone wrote it, and because it looks like my handwriting: messy and somewhat random.

This is sans serif because it has no lines off of the ends of the letters.

This is serif because it has little lines off of the ends of the letters.

5 fonts

i like this font becaue of the 3d effect that it gives. plus its italic so it looks even cooler
i like this font because its fancy yet gothic, its a blend of the two that i never thought would be possible
starsky and hutch....need i say more?

Fonts
Courier-new: courier-new is a very retro font, it looks as though you're typing with a typewriter. It has smooth letters with smooth serifs.
Verdana: Verdana is a wider font than most other fonts. Its pretty smooth, easy to read. It looks good, but I wouldn't want to read a whole block of text with it.
Georgia: Georgia looks like a classic font that would be good to type papers with. It's a typical typing font such as the Garamond font and Times New Roman.

Vladimir script is a very formal, eloquent font whose
un-capitalized letters (by nature of script font) are very
close together and are connected to each other.
Loft is a very simple, narrow, and THIN sans serif font.
Stemple Garamond is an ordinary serif font. There is nothing
really special about it, and it resembles Times New Roman.
Old Caps is a decorative font the embraces both an old and modern look.
Space Toaster is by far my favorite of all-time. I don’t know why,
but I fell in love with it when I was little and have so ever since.
