My work is based around Graphic Design, I will be updating my blog by adding my recent pieces of art on here, to hopefully grow as an artist and learn new techniques.
Floral Typography

I printed out a page with the chosen font for my front cover, I then sketched out a simple floral design around the text. I then photographed the image and drew it digitally on my Surface Pro 4 using Photoshop.
My favourite piece of the typography was adding colour as its a contrast against the black font and draws in the audiences eye.
If I could change anything I would trial different types of flowers so I had a large variation.
Dominic Murphy is a British artist who works in a very gruesome and dark art way. Lots of his work is based around Alice in wonderland. I like how he uses a lot of colour but in a monotone kind of sense, making the piece look more gruesome and horrible. All his artwork is very realistic which works well in his favour as it adds more of a weird and creepy aspect to the work. It has inspired me to use colour but in a neutral and with a low saturation through out the book.
The magazine Diesel launched its Issue described as, "the digital Adventure", I like how the image have been manipulated into the models faces/ bodies being dismembered and lots of pretty and bright flowers/leafs are coming out. I think the meaning behind this is the everyone has a creative outlet and to show the audience that digital technology has moved forward and can help us become more creative. I am inspired to try and use this kind of effect for my Feminism topic as women don't always feel free to express themselves, I will be designing a magazine form with information but also eye catching photo manipulation.
Adbusters is a website that fights consumerism brands/people using powerful posters that have a strong meaning/story for the audience. Adbuster shows consumers how bad company's are to the environment and to them. My favourite image is of a baby being breast fed and the mother having a burger painted on her boob, this is very inspiring as it shows that any bad greasy food the mother eats so does the baby, this poster is meant to open women's eyes up to being careful of what they eat when pregnant. This has inspire me to try and develop a certain logo and change it into something bad they do; Pepsi logo being turned into an obese person as there is a lot of sugar and calories in them.
