You People.

Explaining to the client that my questions were not to frustrate her but to get a better idea of the project:
Client: “Don’t worry, my daughter is very artsy, so I’m used to dealing with you people and your train of thought.”
Oh no, that client di-int! I find that kind of funny though.

Date Auction 2011 + Process
AASIA is hosting their annual Date Auction on Friday, March 25th. Proceeds will go to the Blue Dragon Children’s Foundation (http://www.bdcf.org/). I’m looking forward to all the schools’ performances. This year’s theme is Disney!!. The featured movies are Snow White, Pocahontas, Tron, Lion King, and Aladdin. Hopefully it’ll be a great turnout.

Artsy Fartsy Friday
Ugh, I know it’s Saturday and it’s the second time I posted late… But hey, better late than never they say.
I’ve been pretty busy with other things - meeting up with crazy clients, doing schoolwork that involves an actual client, taking pictures for my photography class, designing flyers for upcoming events… All with taking care of and spending time with my wonderful...
Artsy Fartsy Friday
Okay, so technically, it’s Saturday but I started working on this before midnight stroke so it still counts as Friday! =) I present you this week’s creative.
I used Photoshop CS4. And no, I’m not that full of myself. I just that thought this photo was taken so well, and my friend TahJah brought it up that it looks like it belonged on the cover of Dance Central or something...
sw!tch
This is the name of my group in my senior design class. Our first assignment was to come up with a name and develop some logo concepts that will represent us. The idea behind the name sw!tch is that we as designers are able to “switch” our clients’ work into other concepts (or something along those lines… I really can’t remember).
For this post, I will share with...

Logo Process.
My friend Tiffani Tran recently opened her own salon soon. I was honored when she asked me if I could help her come up with a logo. She also asked me if I could design other print materials that include her business card, two different loyalty cards, a coupon, and a price list. I’ll post the print after it gets printed. But for now, I’ll show the process I went through.
Please keep in...

Quick Update.
Hey everyone,
I apologize for being MIA for awhile. Life has gotten a tad bit busier now that school is back in session and my son is growing so fast.
Artsy Fartsy Friday will be back this week so watch out what kind of creativity will pop up.
Also, I just finished with what felt like a project over the weekend. It involved developing a logo, designing a business card and more. I’ll share...
The End is Near.
Next week, I’ll be starting my last spring semester. I will miss LSU terribly, but I know that I can’t stay in school forever, even if I had the means to. Graduation will be bittersweet.
I’m not sure what to expect this semester, except that I have to prepare myself for the “real world” and deal with “real people” and where I will no longer have summers...

Artsy Fartsy Friday
So I had this idea where I can be creative on a personal level and share these creations to everyone. I first came up with this idea when I was living in Baton Rouge. I would call some friends over on Fridays and we would do artsy things, be it drawing, painting, dance, or even makeup. Unfortunately though, it didn’t last too long. Eventually, everyone had to tend to their own lives and had...

Big Dreams.
I have one more semester till I graduate. Six credit hours left. Two studios.
When I came across this picture while Googling (I don’t remember what I was searching), so many thoughts came through my mind. And it also brought motivation that I’ve been needing.
My main thought: One day, I want to have my own space, where I can let my ideas scatter all over the place without...

Yet Another Blog.
I’ve gone through plenty of blog sites. I am pretty content with blogspot, but a friend of mine suggested that I should make an account on tumblr for the purpose of posting my artwork.
But then, I also have accounts on other sites to show my artwork, but I guess I can write about the process of a project, the challenges I face, the solutions I come up with, and things of that nature.
