2nd assignments

hello. i finally got around to doing another blog post. i decided to do an update on my latest assignments from my electronic and editorial illustration classes.
this was the 2nd assignment for my electronic illustration class. we had to make a menu cover for midtown diner. we also had to make it look old/vintage. we started off in illustrator and did some stuff in photoshop. i started off not caring too much for the illustration while it was in illustrator. but once i put it in photoshop and made it look aged i loved it. i loved it even more once i got it printed. a cool thing happened though, it got put up in a case at school. i'm so happy and proud.
this was my 2nd assignment for my editorial illustration class. we had to do an illustration for a book or movie review. i did mines on a book review on coral reefs by jason chin. i'm going to be honest and say i'm not too crazy about this. i think it's because it's so busy, i like my compositions to be a bit more simple than this. but the picture being busy is appropriate because of the setting. but i do love all the colors though.

midterms went great and i'm looking forward to the rest of the quarter. thanks for reading.

  1. Oh my goodness, your creativity amazes me! I love both of these pieces so much, they're really darling and eye catching <3 *___* !!

    I agree that the 2nd is a bit busy, but it works? The only possible critique I could give would be to use atmospheric perspective to the colors as in they fade a bit the further the object is.
    Your style is just so cute ahhh I want to eat it up c:
