Thumbprint

Thumbprint_final

Here is the thumbprint i did a while back for a task in class. I like the idea of it but it could have been done to a higher quality so the writing is easier to read.

Thumbprint paragraph

Heres the short paragraph that i wrote for my thumbprint design. The design on the way. 

I am Glenn.  Things that make me. Objects, thoughts, feelings, experiences. These things make the person I am. Who knows what that person may be? Liked, disliked, loved or despised. The things that have entered my life are now part of it and cannot be rubbed away. I cannot go back and change life. I cannot go forward and predict life. I must live here and now. For the moment. I was born in England a country with much history but no particular culture. I was raised by my 2 parents, whom I look up to and love very much. I have grown up with two sisters in my life one older, one younger. Has this made a difference to my person? Who knows? Over the years my interests have changed more and more, until I no longer know what my interests are. Tomorrow they may be different today they are the same. Does that make me fickle? Maybe. I try to keep to certain morals, as it can make the difference between joy and hate. I am very happy with the state of my life. What else could I ask for? Maybe better weather. I like to relax. I like adventure. I like meeting new people. Everyone’s different. I have fears as do many. Will I become successful? Does it matter? Should I keep between the lines? Am I wasting time? Enjoy it while I can. Time flies. So much to see. So much to do. Can’t wait.

Hello all

Ive sadly been missing out on all the blogging life recently seeing as i have had lots of work to do. Note to self, share time out equally! I am currently trying to teach myself illustrator and its making me rather frustrated. With photoshop i feel quite confident but not being able to do the things i want on illustrator is so irritating! Anyways i must get back to what i shall be creating in my CP project. I have decided to go with this idea as my final design for the first assignment and see how it evolves along the way.

 

1 - Get a box.

2 - Illustrate the box with my face from all angles.

3 - Cut corner roughly from box on back left of my 'box head'.

4 - Make illustrations on smaller boxes and personal items of mine.

5 - Place 'box head' on my head.

6 - Have the items falling out of the corner of my box head as if they are my thoughts falling from my brain.

7 - Feel good.

 

Obviously this is a vague overview of my final idea and there will be much more to it but i am quite interested in this idea.

Everyone always says think outside of the box.

How about think inside a box?

Multiple Thoughts

One of the main things that i have noticed about my life in general is that my mind changes a lot. Also i find it intriguing that you can almost argue with yourself over something. I should do it, I shouldn't do it. I should buy it, i shouldn't buy it. Your mind is rarely settled on one thing. It shows that everyone has multiple personalities and these personas fight each other for control everyday. I made this picture using the scans from a few days ago. It shows my mind. <insert more arty chat here>
