Week 5: Fireworks, Flanders, and other Flapdoodle

20 02 2009

I might want to use Illustrator instead of Fireworks for part of my project. Although it is very similar, I am more familiar with the former, and want to play with my ideas rather than spend time learning a new (to me) program. However, I did the sample exercise and drawing tools in class and finished it today, Friday. Now I am playing with banner ideas. I love the sculpture at the entrance by Big Vanilla, and would like to use that in my design, somehow. I also long for the dogwoods and redbuds to bloom. Maybe I can use those as the source for my second design, and hurry them along!

Flanders is a stitch! I laughed until I cried at some of his and others’ comments. The websites were atrocious, and I had to put in eyedrops after that Yvette formal shop site. Gack! I will remember the flashing, repetitious, garish, confusing, seizure-inducing bottom ten when I start to “busy up” my designs. I loved this website.
