Title: Wine Corkscrew
Year: 2007
Medium: Prismacolor markers, black and white colored pencils, ink pens, graphite, Adobe Photoshop CS3 (final)
Format: 11″ x 17″
Class: Graphic Visualization (CDES 333) at CSU, Chico
Details: For this assignment we had to redesign a common household object or appliance. The final was to be a comprehensive rendering of our idea, printed out digitally in color on 11″ x 17″ paper. It had to include a title, a short description, images of the product in use, elevations (“flat” renderings of the product), and possible other colors (optional). For the final digital composition I scanned, and then layered in Photoshop, pieces of the studies I had done (displayed at the bottom of this post) instead of re-illustrating the combined items by hand.

Title: My very first tablet drawing
Year: 2007
Medium: Digital
Format: 300px by 331px
Details: Be nice! It’s my very first shot at drawing with my new graphic tablet on my computer. It’s pretty tough getting used to using a pen instead of a mouse, even if you wouldn’t think it would be. I’m very excited to have one though, and it’s been fun learning!
