Skate Deck Design

For this project we had to create a skate deck design using vector and raster elements, brand our work, and use a "predator" theme.  The budget for this piece was $30.00 for the print.

Final Product!!!  :) 

Used an old skate deck to mount mine onto.
Although the blue of the snake/ splatter in the background didn't print with the same colour intensity of how i originally wanted it, I think it still works, and turned out great! 

Final Design

Used this texture for the snake's skin

Painting I made, flipped it on its side, and vectorized it for the background

watercolour splatter I created for the background 

Vector illustration took around 5 hours, then 1 hour or so to play around with the colours/gradients.  

Final sketch used to render the image using illustratorCS5

Predator Theme

In the Style of...

The objective of this assignment is to create your own artwork in the style of a specific artist assigned to you. My artist is James Paterson. His website called 'Presstube' shows a large collection of his work, including one of his most recent projects: The Rotten Fruit Tardis.  This is an interactive animation that takes you through different worlds. Your curser turns into a small rocket that is squeezed out of this organic creature that James calls the 'mother ship' http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d9AtXfFuOLE. In this world you can discover numerous amounts of illustrations James has created.

The work of James Paterson is very abstract and surreal accompanied by odd titles for each piece. He also works mainly in pen and ink.

Here are three of my own renderings in the style of his work!
