Update
Hey guys!
So my uni work is going well now that I know what direction I’m headed: managed to finish and print off my invitation, worked on my Save the Date (which is actually complete now) so now I just need to work on my RSVP but that’s pretty much finished now too.
I’m thinking of doing more for this project because I’m just so near the end, but then again I...

My Thoughts
I had a little chat today to my lecturer because wow I was stressing out so much about this project. Every design I did just didn’t “feel” right and I didn’t know what was wrong with me. I tried, but I couldn’t achieve that perfect design that I had in mind.
I told her this and she pointed out that my designs lacked character, and that I should do some hand...

You mentioned moving the type to the right a little bit and I would agree. Maybe instead of starting those last three lines on the flourishes of the “O”, start them at the “O” itself.
Yeah, I’m doing that now ^^ Thanks so much!

Forgotten planning
I had loads of things planned for today uni-wise, but now I’ve completely forgotten what those plans were.
Whoops.

Okay, is hard for to imagine that I can be in this situation, it’s the kind of things that happens to you and your brain have a delay of days in order to understand that is really happening to you.

FMP
So I’m trying to think of ideas for my FMP… It’s a bit late because I was supposed to at least have an idea by now, but I’m really stuck!
I was originally going to do some book illustrations for children’s fairy tales, but then I thought, “is that the way I’m going to be going in the future?” Now I’ve been thinking of doing something along...

billysongchen asked: Thanks for following! I couldn't help but read that you need some inspiration. I am also stuck in that stump. I convinced myself to make a piece a day. It keeps me thinking, even if it is crap. I wish you luck with your future projects! - Billy Chen

Trying to scramble some inspiration
I don’t know why, but recently I’ve been finding it really hard to knuckle down and do uni work. I guess it’s all down to the lack of inspiration really…
So I’m going to reblog the crap out of illustrations, graphic designs and typography on my other tumblr page (just so that I could keep this page solely for my work).
Wish me luck!

Restless
When my phone died on me I was finally left to my own thoughts.
I’ve been doing so much design work that going cold turkey for two days has left me restless. I feel like I haven’t done anything useful and that I have wasted valuable time of getting to where I want to in future. It was no wonder that I leaped at the chance when my friend mentioned needing some help in editorial...

Had a pretty crap day today
My project is due in next week but because I had finished all of my designs I wanted to print them all off today. Bought all of the paper that I needed and got my CD Label ready, so it was just waiting to be printed!
I first did the business card on matte paper, but the colours sunk into the paper so it looked really grey, and the lines were jagged. Yet when I printed out on a “normal”...

mikegiusti asked: I thank you as well for following. I'm enjoying your work and find it refreshing that there is another graphic artist out there who knows how to sketch out and draw her ideas. You'd be surprised how little of us exist out there. Trying to dissipate the "cut & paste artist" notion of GDers. If you need any advice or want to shoot an idea across the bow, let me know. ;)

sketchdreamer asked: Hey... I was the one commenting on VisualsGraphic's question that you had about how to price things and post-schooling portfolios. You may also like to read "Never Sleep" by Andre Andreev and G. Dan Covert. I haven't read it yet, but some classmates of mine have and they enjoyed it. It's all about these two guys transitions from school to professional life. (They're...
