We did it!
Kicked thesis in the butt, enjoyed a nice little break, and then received our diplomas.
Time to be big kids.
My thesis installation.
First and foremost. IT’S FRIGGIN BEAUTIFUL AND I’M SO EXCITED HOW IT LOOKS.
Second, some of the photos aren’t that great looking because when I color corrected it, for some reason my camera took it like a vignette and I didn’t like the way it came out.
Third, I AM FINISHED.
Watercolor weapon studies.
Basically for fun. And I’m in love with them. I wanna make patterns with them and never stop doing this technique for the rest of my life.
Watercolor Weapons.
This was my final project in my watercolor class. It’s supposed to be somewhat a catalog of weapons that I took off of my timeline for thesis. Each comes with the image, the calibur/what it’s armed with, the year created and a quote. The quotes refer to the actual weapon. I plan on hanging these with my thesis.
Made by me.
Gun timeline almost final draft.
I have to change the background of this so that it looks less “paintball” than dirty, but other than that I believe this is finished. This is the second part of my thesis.
72x12in. Highlights an array of weapons created between 1908 and 2012.
Currently working on a timeline of weapons. This is the second run with it, and I like it better than my original, where it was vertical instead. This way I can cut the gun out a lot better and people can pick it up and look at it.
More to come
My midterm installation for thesis. From left to right are my experiments with ice cubes, my watercolor explosions, the quote posters up top, underneath is a timeline on weapons that I’m currently working on, my Good Morning Vietnam posters and above them are blood spatter studies.
My final logo design for Visual Identity Systems. I need to tweak the S but other than that, I’m done.
This isn’t exactly how I wanted this part of my current project to be, but I really enjoy the way it came out so no complaints. Now to get the type to work like this in something other than photoshop…
Anyways, you can’t tell from the image but the colors in the background that comes through the texts are watercolors I did of an atom bomb, car bomb and napalm. And some random blood spatters I did. The quotes are from people who experienced each of these explosions.
