Art Portfolio: Collaboration Task

Milk advertisement,                                 

as a part of the mini group project with Michaela and Francisco.

The aim was to create a simple advertisement. It was a perfect possibility to evaluate the initial skills in presenting the product. We included a poster, product design and elements of graphic design. 

Brainstorming process we persuaded online, so we do not have a sheet with ideas.

- makes you strong, bodybuilder

-smile

-nature

We agreed that I will make a cow design, Michaela will make a poster (background etc.) and Francisco - product design.

My first idea was mostly about energy and movement. To create an unusual thing for the eye. I think it is a part of the advertising. I came up waving hands and milk-spilt titles ''work flow''. I just imagine that with a simple blue background. 


But it was my concept. When we gather lately to combine ideas, we had a different point of view. We agreed on the roles and aims of the project. We split up as well as the progression route is. My work was to create the cow image. We wanted to present her in the city. To emphasise the rush and everyday challenges. The second option was placing her in the meadow - natural habitat. But still in a rush with features like a hat or briefcase. 

I made a few sketches, it strongly reminded me of the scene from the Monthy Python Flying Circus. I know that it maybe is not a shining example. I only hope that it can remind someone of this scene. 

Here is the link to the video.


I started with sketches inspired by the walk 'motion'. 





We have been looking at other famous milk campaigne and food advertisements site. 

As we pointed out, there is a general outline of the project. 

''We will create an advertising poster for Milk. Which will include illustration and design of the product. We will use vector graphics for this project. The brand of Milk will be fictional and the idea is: Milk that gets you to work! Our progression routes are Illustration, Product design and Graphic design. ''

Here is my first approach to make this poster. 
Michaela made the overall look. I only changed the design and inserted my cow.
We discussed that this theme should encourage people to buy a carton of milk with a smiling face. Like in a lot of other companies 'milk from happy cow'. I changed the title to exaggerated the positive kick to start a day with a... milk!


In the end, we concluded to make two possible variations. This one above I made, and below is made by Michaela.


Francisco made a product design. He inserted the carton of milk on the mockup table.

    Really good effort on this project, you seem to have worked really well as a part of the team with Mia and Francisco. Interesting that you mentioned Monty Pythons Flying Circus - I'm surprised that you made that connection.

Set Project: The exact reason why and sketches

 I have not straightened why I chose to illustrate the lyrics. As you may have noticed, I know quite a lot about music from the last century and always dreamed about the connection with visual art. Especially in this case, when the album is laid out as a story. Therefore, taking advantage of this opportunity I intend to make something familiar using illustration. You see, songs have a lyric - a story. And I want to share with those, by giving my version. In fact, Primitivism is related to the 60s pop culture and the insights I will publish gradually. The album that I chose is unique in terms of the tracklist.  Sgt. Pepper Lonely Hearts Club Band  has no gaps between tracks. Therefore they made an album that sounds like one continuous song. ''Highly debated it is considered as a one of the first concept album'' (The HollyHobs, 2020). Some of the songs had been established according to the newspapers headers/stories.  The reasons why I chose this relation to the theme ...

Set Project: Sketches and coming back to the first plan

In the last days, I concluded that I should focus on the reasons why I choose this topic and the style of this project. I think I started to be weak and not sure what I want to do. I think the reason is in a large number of researches. Same with techniques and artists to look at. I summarise that I am not capable to mix various inspirations at once. I came back to my first inspiration Anto van Hertbruggen. Because I always wanted to make art like that, no matter what's it gonna take. Here I will discuss the elements which I want to use to combine this pice in one. Here is the whole work with the background. As I mentioned before, I looked at how Anton work on his illustrations. He usually filling few sheets in drawings (as layers for one illustration).  First, I found a great view on google maps. I am interested in the territories of Canada and the northern landscape. The place is in Northwest Territories, in Yellowknife.  click I sketch this place on two sheets of paper. Then...

Welcome to my blog!

Tell me something about yourself:  I am a young artist studying IYZ Art&Design with Graphic Design BA, in De Montfort University. Live in the Leicester city centre. My pathway started since I have been influenced by a close family by Claude Monet’s works. Paintings made by my uncle’s hands were great copies. Those pieces of art have been surrounding me still. I have been studying at Art School in Bydgoszcz, were I gain helpful skills and workshop.  I would like to explore more possibilities to share my skills. The significant key of my artworks made by oil paints is the variously, including different textures and mediums. I’m sure that our expressions and feelings made us artists. In my artworks, I’m trying to take after my deep feelings of research and my inquisitiveness. Furthermore, I’m fascinated by the 50’s and 60’s century artists. Especially, Futurist artist like Boccioni, Silva, Gonzalez. Their appearance have been a tremendous impact on my art.  Claude Monet...
