LDN2012 OLYMPICS

man...it seems like i did this project FOREVER ago! i guess it has a been a year and a half, but man, ive done so much work in between that i almost forgot about it! anyway, this was the first project i ever worked on involving WAYFINDING. it is something i knew nothing about, but have grown to absolutely LOVE.
we had to do event symbols and some other stuff revolving around the LONDON OLYMPICS in 2012. it was such a huge and exciting assignment and, in just a few weeks, i got a little carried away hehe. at the end of the quarter i told my teacher that i wish this was our only assignment and we had the entire quarter to work on it...i had too many ideas and not enough time to sort them out.
so yeah, my skills were a lot crappier then, but i think the concept still holds up. looking back, i wouldve taken time to focus my ideas a little bit more, but i was also totally inexperienced with this kind of thing. i'd like to think that nowadays, i would be able to bust it outttt. but i like this project and it popped into my head while drinking ice coffee with my dog this morning, so i dug it out of the external, erased the photos of my embarrassing model, and decided to post it. an oldie but a goodie...i guess its a personal fav because it got me really interested in a new kind of EGD.

MY SEEESTER'S WEDDING

awhile back i worked on my sister's wedding invites, and guess what...this past weekend she had the wedding! she and her hubby live in seattle and held the ceremony and festivities at the LAKE CRESCENT LODGE on the OLYMPIC PENINSULA. that place is pure magic and i HIGHLY recommend it as a vacation/exploration destination. anyway, the colors were cocoa brown and lavender, and everything was handmade, by her bridesmaids, using local, natural things. there are a TON of lavender farms up there so we had those flowers everywhere, and i was asked to paint some rocks and drift wood for a little extra decoration. i busted these out really quick, but i think they are super cute. also, the groom is a beer freak so he made a list of his top 10 local beers and held a beer tasting at the reception, so i made a sign for that as well...that one is now happily hanging in their kitchen. oh and i carved their intials (while it was pouring down rain) into a nearby tree cause, well, i think its kinda cool. congrats, guys...i really could not be happier for you two xoxoxo

HEART RATE RAPID
