Grocery Tote

I decided to make myself a grocery tote using one item from each section of the food pyramid.

 Initial sketches

 Illustrator file

Pulled the images into Photoshop and arranged them 


I think I should have tried to get it silk screened instead of using an iron on. *sigh*

The Jumping Cow

Watercolor picture of a cow jumping over the moon. Used really baby/pastel type colors. It's cute.

Illustrator Designs Process

This wasn't really a well planed out project I did. It was was rather impromptu. It started out with the quick sketches below and found myself compelled to flush them out and finish them up. I guess I'm going to end up using them as stickers for my little sister. Either way, it was fun and got me back into working with Illustrator and Photoshop. The characters themselves are from a T.V. series called Gundam Wing, I just made them smaller and cute.


Started out with some doodles with a broken tablet. Well, not exactly broken... just an old one that doesn't register my swift movements very well, hence the images are so jittery. But I kinnda like them this way, they have a certain charm to them.



Flushed out and defined the sketches.


Pulled the drawings into Illustrator and did all the coloring there. Started out with flats and then added gradients as needed.


Finally, I pulled the images into Photoshop and touched up a few colors and objects. Also adding the backgrounds.
