Calligramme

My Future Letter:

Dear future Olivia,

I am currently a Freshman in college writing to my 38-year-old self. I hope by then I have my life figured out more. I have so many friends that I hang out with every day and I really hope to be friends with them still. My friends are Eloise, Kenna, Darby, Tess, Ella S, Kyra, Tini, Ella P, Gracie, Jessie, and so many more. College has brought me out of my comfort zone and showed me that I am capable of doing anything. Before going to college I was extremely nervous about meeting new friends, but I seriously have met some great people here. I hope that you are married to a very rich and attractive man lol. I wonder where I'm going to end up living… Possibly Florida, New York, or even back in Minnesota. Do I have children, if so how many? Thinking about being 38 definitely scares me. My life currently consists of waking up going to class, maybe going to the pool, and then hanging with friends. On the weekends, I go to Caddys with friends and usually go out after. Life is so fun right now and I don't want to grow up. I will hopefully have a job I love to do or at least make a lot of money doing. I want to have a golden retriever and a big house with a pool. I really hope that before I have kids I have the opportunity to travel the world. I recently went to Dubai and it completely changed my perspective. I want to gain new experiences and cultures by visiting cool places. Maybe I will live in another country for a year. I am excited to look back at this and see how much I've changed and grown throughout the years.


My final Calligramme:                                My final sketch:

 

When doing this project I was given the task of writing a letter to my future self and artistically turning it into another form. When creating my calligramme I needed to draw something that had meaning to my life and my future. I decided to turn my letter into a rose because of its strong significance to me. My middle name is Rose, and it also represents me blossoming and blooming into a better and wiser person.

Postcard

Image
My postcard used photos from the solar eclipse in Fort Worth, Texas. I am not from there, however, the solar eclipse was far more beautiful in Texas rather than in Minnesota. I used a mix of fonts to create and colors to create a postcard I believe could be found at a store.

Business Cards

Image
 These are my sketches for my business cards. I used a mixture of fonts and included different art and drawings in my sketches. This is my favorite business card. I created a simple front that includes only a background and my logo. For the back, I lowered the saturation on the background so the words would stand out more. I also made the font for my information different and more bold so it would stand out. Since this business card is lavender I wanted to include a lavender clip art to separate my first and last name. On the back side, I thought it made the most sense to use the black and white logo so that it looks more minimalist. I also made the information on the card a bold text with a white outline so it would stand out. This is my final business card. I really like this business card because I think the background color looks really good with my logo. It is also very simple but clean.

TagBrush

Image
 My Logo: My Logo was inspired by my childhood. I grew up going to my Grandparents house and they had a sunflower field in their backyard. Ever since then i've always loved sunflowers, which is why I chose to combine my initial L for Liv and a sunflower. My Tag Print:  For this assignment we turned our logo into a tag brush. I chose to create a frame with my tag around a bigger tag and then layered a pink tag in the middle. I chose to do this because I wanted to showcase my logo and add a contrast of my favorite color over top.
