MMXI - 365 - "Music Lover"

Here's the 2011 Finale:

Yes, a music lover I am (although I only like one country song, "Red Solo Cup"), 
and for 2011's 365 Drawing/Posting Project, this is the last post. 

This post combines my experience with Illustration and Graphic Design.  This project was done this semester for a graphic design class: pick an organization that serves a beneficial purpose and create a tagline to match it.

The illustration part is done in watercolor neutrals and then digitally colored.  That part is located behind the young musician and between the chalk marks.

The graphic design part consists of the tagline in the bottom right corner which color coordinates with the "Save the Music" logo.  I have the chalkboard background with the chalk showcasing the wonders of music and a young trumpet player blasting away.

I received a high A on this project and it took me less than a week to create.
(2012 will be an any-day-type-of-blog)

MMXI - 363 - "2Faced Purple Man"

 
 
I did this today to test a few new markers and the outcome resembles a
cross between DC Comics' 2Face and Marvel Comics' Purple Man; both are villains.

The Caucasian side looks good as far as flesh tones and considering that I only
used about 4 markers.

Just 2 more days until I will be done with this daily project.
