Graphic Animals







I love penguins and this project was great to show the difference in there color. The are mostly black and white in nature and these two icons that I made represent that. The can be a symbol for many things. I chose to put two together to show the symbol of a heart.

Expressive Type and Design



For Stodgy, I tried just to use the most boring font and color. I did not do much with the image because it is supposed to be boring and not that appealing.




This one had to be my favorite one to do. I used a font that was very thick and squished together. The best part of this is the use of layers to add the slimy feel to the typeface. I added a dark green to give it the feel like it is ooze. Also I added a drop shadow effect to make it look like it has depth.




For Ornate I used very simple colors and a very eloquent typeface. I added the flower for a feel of peace.



I feel I could have done more with this one. I added the box to make it look like there was something crushing the type.
