One of those slow moving days again.
When I say 'again', sometimes I assume you, the reader completely understand. However you could only imagine with the jest of empathy here and there.
A relaxing day, less creative than many on the hike to achieving something interest to post here and there, but perhaps left for another day to create a jest of exciting work.
Work which isn't so based on short-hand art. Something long-term. Something lovely and enjoyable.
Keep ya' posted,
Jack

This post may be bland, but I have passed my theory test today and it has been a great morning in Bristol. New and more interesting work to come, working on a portfolio cover! stay tuned if necessary aha.

LP - Bob Marley and the Wailers
This alternative Photograph is just that little bit different. Something alternative, by why? is is because it uses a LP? and the interest in vinyl is considered to be cool and retro in this day in age? I hope not.
The image is more than that. Its not retro, but uses interesting objects to expose a point of view or direction by the viewer. The negative white black space as the LP reveals its texture only through the white glimmer from the light.
The circle (LP) is off center, to create a gritty feel for old skool objects. Objects which appeal to a majority of audiences in different ways, whether history or interest. This collection of objects does expose a thousand words, and sometimes more. As of course imagery is not limited by language, more so understanding.
The sensual detail of hands create this cold feel of vinyl across the fingertips of the viewer, capturing the texture from the dramatic exposure of this white glimmer discussed previously. Ever so sensual photograph, to be used and abused by Photoshops manipulative powers, and of course the mind of the creator and designer. Me.

Photograph arrangement - Goodbye lemonade can
I took a couple of photographs yesterday of a small pattern using a few unusual items from around my room.
Makes me feel like it is a game show, a presentation of spontaneous items from afar, how many can you remember, 20 seconds go! ect.
The arrangement consists of a print of a old world war poster, a selection of faced-down Tarot cards, a 'shot up' lemonade can and dice.
The beautiful details of the Tarot cards remind me of a form of cultural china paintings on pottery. The use of this apparent style creates a cleanliness brought to the cards, emphasizing the palette of white in the image. The lighting was arranged adjacent of the table so it could create a differentiation between cards and the world war print beneath.
I am currently embracing my theory test over the next few days, so with the enjoyment of these photographs wish me the best of luck.
Thank you,
Jack

Eco Pattern - Reduce,Reuse, Recycle
This continuous order of the projected values (media) of society influence our actions to consume ourselves with products. This doesn't only damage the enjoyment of simple pleasures or our wallets; but our planet too!
The pattern design illustrates my design process in the following link below. It's interesting some advantages that software can have over traditional techniques, i like to combine multiple imagery by experimenting with the hidden incites of illustrator and little touches of photoshop here and there, to generate alternative ideas and compositions.
This is actually the first time also that I touched upon the pattern generator. Had such a interesting time with learning more about all of these tools.
how I reached where I am now with this project -

Wrapping paper design
A small project of mine to create some personalized wrapping paper for presents or to coat the inside of a portfolio case. Had such great fun developing a creative pattern during this production. I have developed all of my productions in separate illustrator files, so check the link below to see how each symbol was created.
I wish to use this work to also propose an environment protection related advertisement, and to user this pattern as the background, hope it turns out okay!
I would love to print some of the paper off so I can document how it looks on presents! will have to update in the future and record it on my blogger so stay tuned.
I also decided to change the colour do create a more playful compliment to negative white space.
Links are as follows,

Together we can!
Just a little graphic I made yesterday for a small project concerning the planet and the increase in C02 released into our atmosphere through many industrial practices and our own carbon footprint made in everyday life.
The enviromental proposal in generally based, as the recycle sign was used to of course represent the cycle of man-made materials, to reduce unnecessary production.
cant wait to get this project all sown together now!
