History of Piercing







This was my recovery attempt from the tattoo poster. Piercings are the next best thing and the variety of images was much greater. I did not have time to do man sketches at all because it was ver last minute. I did most of the editing in my head and directly on the computer which may have it's negative effects. Overall I am pretty happy with it. If I had been smart and given myself more time I'm sure I could make it better, but it's a large improvement at least to me from the horrid tattoo poster. I'm so optimistic haha. I believe it is effective though.

History of Tattoos











At first I was very enthused to work on this project because I love tattoos, but the ideas in my head were harder to transfer to the computer than I thought. I became extremely frustrated with this poster because I could not find images that were compatible with my ideas. I ended up abandoning it, like a terrible person. I hit a dead end.

Shmeat Logo, Container, and Print Ad

















This project took a lot of time, effort, and frustration. It was a huge challenge to have to create three different projects in one, and there were a lot of thumbnails and sketches that came from it. I tried to meet the needs of the target audience by making the look of the label simple and clean with non-traditional food colors because after all, shmeat is not exactly normal. I liked the result of the label but I ran into issues with my ad. I wanted it to be more proffesional but I was semi satisfied with it in the end. It was not an easy project though. I prefer real meat.
