Daily #1 chirp chirp chirp





H'ok, so, today is the first post for my summer plan. I'm going to have at least one creative post per day on this blog for the rest of the summer. This is my way of motivating myself to keep workin! I doubt I'll be able to show any internship work, but I'll be doing plenty on the sides to keep the blog busy!

This first post is the start of an illustration project I'm working on. It's an illustration to go with a short story I've written (which I'll be posting shortly). It's gonna be of a mechanical bird, so, to get in a chirpy-mindset, I did a session of sparrow sketching from photographic reference. I'll have to keep these in mind next time I do a flying vehicle, the gesture of these guys in flight is crazy!

This is also the first project for a weekly illustration prompt over at We Draw Cars, our CCS group blog. If you feel like participating, head on over there for details.

Nendo miniature chair garden





concept from Milan Design Week


from their site:

"Giving people a small " ! " moment.
There are so many small " ! " moments hidden in our everyday.

But we don’t recognize them.
and even when we do recognize them,we tend to unconsciously reset our
minds and forget what we’ve seen.

But we believe these small " ! " moments are what make our days so
interesting, so rich.

That’s why we want to reconstitute the everyday by collecting and
reshaping them into something that’s easy to understand.

We’d like the people who’ve encountered nendo’s designs to feel these
small " ! " moments intuitively.

That’s nendo’s job."
