OH&S Assessment Task

Part 3 of the assessment task for OH&S was to design my ideal home workstation.  I thought I'd challenge myself and do a sketch in Photoshop using my Bamboo tablet which I haven't used in awhile.

Learning Activity 02 Black Squares
Part A. For this activity I had to use 4 black squares to create an image to express the meaning of each of the following six words:

1. Order
2. Increase
3. Bold
4. Congested
5. Tension
6. Playful

This is what I came up with.  I found it quite therapeutic and enjoyed this activity as I tried to think 'outside the square' for each word. 

Typography Portraits

In this learning activity, the goal is to create a new nameplate for each description.
My name is .................

Inspiring elements were lizards, trees, camouflage, branches

• J-Bug and I have the hiccups

Inspiring elements were water, air, breadth holding, bubbles lifting

• J-Bug and I am a truck driver

I was inspired by parts of a dump truck, tilt tray and the shape of trucks, hence the boxy lettering.

My Scanner Story

Hi Peeps :-)

Here's my story, had a thought about what makes me and how I can give you guys a brief description.  I've also included things that I love: colour, fashion, trends, sweets, scents, fun & life!

I love Glasshouse candles and one of my favs is Coney Island - as it says it smells of burnt sugar and fig and oh so delicious!!! "Bright lights, carousel music and infinite fun"

And who doesn't like peanut butter cups - yummo :-)

Intro - Cert 3 Graphic Pre-Press

Hi All
I'm a first time blogger so please be patient.  I have no idea what I'm doing, am pretty much exploring and learning. I'm sure that as the course progresses my blogs will get more interesting :-)

Here are the things I am inspired by:
Colours
Shapes
Architecture
Photos
Life stories

These are the things that relate to my inspirations:

How colours are used in fashion



How shapes and objects are used.This is an artwork by a German graphic designer - Katrin Schacke



How shapes are used in the design of buildings



The amazing stories that photographs tell




And listening to the life stories of people I meet, even if I only get to meet them once.
