Painting2Music -ass6

The day has finally come.

What I've always wanted to do.

What I've waited 18 years for..

This.is.it.

PAINTING2MUSIC ON CANVAS DAY!

It was my first time, but my god did i love those 2hours.

The magic and joy of feeling colours and just flowing to the music on a breezy morning next to the lakeside.

Magic.

Classical   :    Modern

Beyond words.

Mood Board -ass5(b).artdeco.

So I was all done with making mood boards.....or so I thought..

BAM!

Assignment 5 part B!

Yeah, didn't see that coming..But I absolutely love Mrs.Lisa's ideas though. Playing our client this time, SHE was the one individually assigning projects for each of us to design on a mood board. Nervous yet excited, I quickly went on a search to find out what I'd be designing..

Le List

Yes, my face was quite similar to the image that I've roughly drawn above. :O, followed by, :), CHALLENGE ACCEPTED. Even though I didn't know the first thing about Art Deco, or kitchens for that matter (how embarrassing, heh).

---------after much researching---------

~Art Deco~

Kitchen&Dining Room

            A little touch of modern with a 1920's feel.

Matching apron, details here and there, funky utensils and your classic cobalt blue picture plates.

You feelin' it? ;)

Before I go off I must congratulate the great designers of my class for winning this weeks best mood board.

Spot my monogram yet? ;)

Mood Board -ass5.

    

 Another exciting assignment :)

     So we have to create a mood board based on whatever we want from designs in fashion, interior, graphics.....  Okay, so I had no idea what on earth a mood board is. Luckily, this is when watching 'Kimora: Life in the Fab Lane' unexpectedly comes to good use :D . 

     Kimora Lee Simmons is an American fashion model and was the president and creative director for Phat Fashion (hotstuff, check em out) so in her show, the fashion designers are always creating these mood boards which are basically a collage of images, texts and samples which develop their design concepts and help communicate with other designers and clients.

Here are some different types of mood boards..

Web page design

Interior

Fashion

cute

     Although I'm more into graphics, I decided to change it up a little and create an interior based mood board design. At first I was leaning more towards wedding themes but then thankfully decided to design a candy shop! Now that's more like me than a wedding c:

My Monogram -ass4.finalprint

     Got all excited for stencil making class, then fell terribly sick that very morning :/
.................Didn't stop me from making my stencil though!

Got Blackmill playin on loud cz his musics so chill man you gotta love him.

---------- few hours later ---------

     So apparently its A LOT more complicated than it looks..my first couple tries was quite a fail, but I tried covering up the mistakes with a milk-like design *facepalm*. Well heres my picture frame..

Progress

Picture Frame

Milk-like design

   

 I tried experimenting with different media's from nail polish to poster paint to plain glitter. Basically got very messy up my room :P

Think I'm starting to get the hang it now thought..slowly slowly..

Ma logo yo

My Monogram -ass4.attempt1.

   After having a lecture about what makes a good monogram/logo and discussing the designs of some famous logos and absolutely genius monograms...it was our turn!
We were given around 30 minutes to come up with at least 10 different monograms for our names.
I'd say I got it a little easier because of all the A's and M's in my full name..

 : Amal Abdulla Mohamed Al-Montser :

My first 10 monogram attempts : 

As you can see, Ms.Lisa ticked the what she thought would be the best 2monograms to expand.

Sooooo after expanding thoooose, I came up with these bunch:

And again, as I've circled out to make more visible, Ms.Lisa picked the best 2monograms to expand and enlarge (because in reality these monograms are extremely tiny on my paper). But just as I was enlarging monogram#1 we decided that it was the one!

After a few tiny adjustments, I got an APPROVED stamp from my lecturer and got straight to work on my first sample stencil print from cutting tracing paper..

Voila. 

It almost looks like a flower in a way doesn't it? Or a paper plane....hmmm cant wait to get even more creative in our next weeks official stencil making class!

not bad :)
