2012 Calendar

Ah, my head is about to burst right now. I finally completed the 12th illustration for this calendar after like what... 2.5 days of wearing my butt off continuously, slaving dutifully away in front of the computer screen. Several times I just wanted to cry, seeing time slipped away and ideas not actualized. I was being ambitious by telling my professor that I wanted to do 12 individual designs for each month, something that I didn't have to, but...

Poster Design 1

I'm in the process of designing posters and video introducing the invention of the incandescent light bulb for my Graphic Design class. So far I came up with this design though I have a few more in mind that shall be simpler. I'm leaning more toward the colors in design A1, though A2 isn't too bad itself. The video is coming along nicely, but it is indeed taking a lot of time because we are required to use either or both Adobe After Effects and...

New personal blog: Uni-Q Bean!!

I've just decided that this blog: Vernal Melody, will solely be used to house my graphic art/designs/drawings/etc. and crafts. All of my rantings about life/entertainment from now on shall reside in a new blog I just created: Uni-Q Bean. Head on there if you're interested :). I know, I know I must have bored some people to tears with all the silly philosophical talks amidst my artworks. Now, you're free of all the dramas if you are not interested ...

Food for the soul

Another old photo, recently edited :D. Not the best compositionally, though it's something new I rarely try, so...(Click for bigger view)Just tried out manipulating a little photo of mine. Supposedly a self-portrait as you can see. With this one I really had a hard time putting in text or typography. Perhaps, it's just meant to be purely self-portrait with no additional fancy meaningless text. I like it this way, exaggerated in a good way. ...

Feel of Spring!

So spring is finally here so I guess it's about time to start taking some more photos again :).These are just some old pics I took last summer, but didn't have the time to edit them yet. Really, editing can make a difference (I have a before and after pic below for comparison).I'm only an amateur photographer, thankfully there's Photoshop. You can click for bigger view, and please do because the bigger pictures are better ...

Toy Camera - VistaQuest 1015 Entry, hm...

My brother recently got me a toy camera from Japan called VQ 1015 Entry (thanks so much bro!!) which is a little bit smaller than a credit card, but much thicker of course. And here I'm just testing it out. Not the best because I haven't done much outside shots when the weather is favorable yet, but since it's getting nicer lately I believe either this weekend or the next I might have some new batches. So far, I don't dislike it... I mean, it's...
