Ok, I can explain......

Hey, It;s been another long time since I have been on this... So where to begin?

I have started Viscom which is my last elective and I have been very busy these past two weeks. Well between doing work for graphics and been extremely busy outside of this! As you know I do voluntary work as a Beaver Leader every tuesday night here in my home town, and Paddies day isn't too far away. We are organising our own float for the Parade in Rathkeale. The children, the other Leaders and I have been busy planning this as well as starting to decorate! I also do a web designing course every Monday night for 3 hours, this is so we can begin setting up our own web sites to help promote what we do. We are in the process of getting our badge produced so I'll post when its complete, I can't wait to see how it turn out.

I'm a busy bee if I say so myself.

Anyways back to Viscom....
Yeahhh, era it's not too bad I don't mind doing my few bits for people, it's like painting. I love painting in my free time, and it's most definitely a hobby for me, well maybe both are!!I haven't really enjoyed these past two weeks as much as I thought I would!!
We had to chose a metaphor and mine was "A recipe For Disaster", and our first week was all about typography. We had to mind map and explore as many ways as possible by using fonts to portray this metaphor. Ill just put up some examples that I had experimented with.

 These will NOT be in order!!!

They are just a few to give you a brief idea!

For this week then we had to explore illustration without using type, however my metaphor was suitable to have some type in it! Again began my mind map and tumnail sketches.

 Mmmmm Magic Mushrooms !!

Ok I tired adding picures here, but of course this silly thing hardly ever works!!

Yeaaaaah it's great having younger Brothers sometimes!! My youngest sibling had great fun with me taking pictures of all his guns and soilders, so I was able to use them for my illustration.


 I was looking into replace the main ingredients you use in a recipe and replacing them with items or everyday things, which of course result into a disaster. I began experimenting with a young couple falling in love, getting married, buying a house, having a baby and of course resulting not hving time to clean the house or sleep.



Its taking quite awhile uploading images so I can't put them all up now, it will be tommorow sometime so not to worry! :).... anyways I'll finish off with the bread that just wouldn't go mouldy for me!!! so disappointed anyways I just used painting and a fine pen for my typography. Have a look and ill keep you posted.
