Pray for Rain

The final in my design class is to create a CD label and cover. Aaron supplied the fake band name "pray for rain" which sounded pretty cool so I ran with the rain theme. The photo's I used were taken  in Pocatello Idaho on a rainy day while visiting Aaron's Grandmother. I color picked the CD scheme from the foggy mountain photo. I'm really happy with the overall moody feel....happy with moodiness, sounds like I'm a 13 year old girl....I'm not by the way.

Family Portrait Project

 
 
I wish I could say that I never run out of creative juice but sometimes I have to come up with large project goals so that I keep up with my art. I decided to draw a picture of every member of my family and when I finished up with that I thought I might as well go ahead and do my extended family as well. I'm still working on the extended family and I have some REALLY cute little cousins.
This one is my first of the family project. This is my husband Aaron and myself while we were engaged.

Diamond Business Card


I love the geometric pattern trend going right now and decided to have some fun making a business card design with it. I used a sunset photo and turned up the saturation and added some art filters in photoshop. I then overlayed a diamond pattern and added it to my handmade text. The color turned out AWE-some!

Photo restoration project - Wendy

I'm taking a photoshop class right now and for my first project I fixed up this photo of my Mother, Wendy. I think it worked out pretty well for my first try. The photo was left in a window and there were hairline cracks throughout the photo and a large portion of the background was damaged.

Hot Mama & Papa

This one speaks for itself....as in, my parents are babes. Also, my dad has a mustache, that is all. *prismacolor pencil*

Gonna Pop

 
My sister, Garyn, commissioned a "pop" themed baby shower invitation for her sister in law and here is the result. I have to say I'm pretty impressed with myself that I came up with "little kernel". I'm loving everything about baby shower invitations right now. I love looking at them, making them, and thinking about my favorite people, the baby population.

Cosmic Dancer


I had a lot of fun with this particular project. I used some NASA photo's from the Hubble telescope and this little beauty below of my darling sister, Olivia. She is a phenomenal dancer and for her the sky is the limit, thus the photo of her taking the cosmos by storm. To make her look more realistic and give her dress some body I overlayed a low opacity image of the original outfit on top of the sky dress.
