Home page and Navigation-Sketch

This is my sketch for my homepage and navigation system. I wanted to do a piece that reflects my interests and something very colorful and eye catching.

E-Card Sketch

 This is a sketch that I did via my Ipad using a sketching program, this will be the background of my ecard about global warming.

Here is my final project for this class. I wanted to create something that reflected my studio art work, makeup artistry and digital art work. I also wanted to show my ability to create colorful, eye catching pieces. This class was a lot of fun and inspirational.

E-card Design

 This is the E-card I created for an environmental issue. The issue I chose was Global Warming and how it is effecting us here in New York. I painted the background using a painting application on my iPad and decided that it would work well with this piece. I then wanted to convey the reality of global warming by making the date "December 25" Christmas day, when kids are home and want to play in the snow; however due to global warming it does not snow often from Christmas anymore. I wanted to show that in New York City because of global warming the temperatures have been so mild, that is why I chose to place 75 degrees in the sun, and have flowers and grass blossoming in the middle of winter when it is suppose to be snowing and cold. I added an oil paint filter over the piece to blend it and give the card a textured look. I wanted to keep the message simple and to the point on the inside, as well as the back of the card; I wanted to show an eco friendly design which I was able to find on a google search and it is a butterfly globe. I then added the words 'eco friendly' inside the butterfly to tie it all together. Rather then using words, I wanted the pictures to speak to the viewer and have the viewer find the irony in the piece as well as an awareness of the future.
