Monogram

This is my monogram. I think it was very successful. A monogram is a combination of letters into a unique symbol, essentially, and in this case, we were to use our initials. This was a very fun project to end on, I love these logo-type assignments, because I think that's where my strength is in Graphic Design.

Site Sculpture

The final sculpture project was site-specific and whatever we made it had to be at least 10 feet tall. My teacher wanted our paper airplane hung on the side of the Fine Arts Center, so we nailed large bolts into the wall.

Another angle, kinda gives it an idea of the size.

This is my favorite sculpture so far, the giant Rubik's Cube. Unfortunately I can't claim any credit for it, but I wish I could. I was also saddened when I saw that both my plane and the Rubik's Cube were destroyed in our wonderful windstorm/snowstorm last night.

Deep

This is THE strongest piece in my portfolio right now, the one I'm most proud of, and it is flippin' tight! Ah! I love the deep, so I was super excited to learn I could deviate from the mainstream of my classmates' subjects; we could chose between making our brochure on the British Natural History Museum or the Victoria and Albert Museum (art), and I took it a step farther and did it specifically on an upcoming exhibit of the NHM: The Deep. I like to stare at my cover.

Inner spread. Much more simplified than my originals. So sweet.

The back-cover. Very nice. My teacher only had a few details of corrections for me in critique just before the BFA review, which was so nice. My cover was also the only one he said really "seduced" him--the ultimate objective that he stressed throughout this project--so that made me super happy. Sigh.

Portfolio stuffs

This is the glory of my infamous shoe-spider. The one I worked on all night long, making go a whole 38 hours and 40-ish minutes without sleep, which was horrible. However, it is done! And it is amazing. I wish I had had time to get better pictures. I love this sculpture!

The whole set-up.

This is the last of the Phi series, the one I redid, since it was positively disgusting before, so I completely changed it and am now almost happy with it, but I had to get it done for the BFA review which was on Friday--that's the super stressful event in which we turn in our portfolios and find out if we're good enough to continue and get into the Graphic Design program. I made it!!! By the way! I'm in Graphic Design! Stress is gone. :)
