One of Those Days

Sometimes the wait on my own critique causes my mind to start drift elsewhere. As I was waiting, I started doodling on the chipboard on my desk. It is nice once in a while to start drawing for my own sake ;it really is a stress reliever. 




That bunny represents how tired I am due to the fact I am taking 18 credits as a senior.

Children Book Spread

I have been working for hours on photoshop coloring and editing a children book spread for two days. It has finally paid off. I did a spread on the Filipino folk story on "The Legend of the Mango". In a nut shell it is about a boy with a sweet heart. When he became ill a fairy took his heart and planted it. When the village people discovered a tree, it's fruit were shaped of a heart and it was the sweetest fruit they have ever ate.
I had to lower the image quality in order to actually upload it. Soon enough, I will make a better site to store my art work in much better quality.

Welsh Corgi

I always love the Welsh Corgi. Everything about them is too cute especially their nub of a tail. It a tiny little pom pom that wiggles on their butts! For my Corgi apperication I made a watercolor of it with puppy eyes.
How can anyone say no to this dog?

Greeting Card

School started and I am already piled with loads of homework. On my illustration class, I picked an assignment dealing with greeting cards. I decided to make a mother's day theme card since I wanted to show my appreciation for my own mother . Once this project is done I will send it to her as a surprise gift-hopefully she will feel the love!

This is the sketch. I decided to remove the butterfly and keep it simple with basic flowers.

 this is the outcome of the sketch in color

Perfume Design Teaser

Lacoste Joy of Pink Template

Pitching a "Candy" idea for my next perfume design

Both the illustrations are for my class on target marketing. My produce is perfume design and target audience is young girl. The Lacoste design is much different than the candy illustration. Both are stylize for different type of young girls. The candy illustration has a large colorful palette contracting the Lacoste limited colors.
