The Steadfast Sleuths poster idea was cool. She didn’t use a lot of colors. The images were not over done. This poster goes to show that you don’t need a lot of detail to get the point across. It inspired me to not use so much. Not saying that it was a simple poster, but … Continue reading Inspiration- Kimberly Roehl →

This inspiration piece hit close to home. The poem that she used in itself, is inspiring. It is true when you are going through dealing with someone who has died and meant so much to you. The image itself is great. The way she maneuvered the words around the angel’s head fits well. I submitted … Continue reading Inspiration- Janelle Pierangelino →

In this design assignment, I created a bumper sticker for my character’s, Miakoda, store The Crafty Cauldron. I figured I would add different crafty clip arts to go along with the steaming cauldron. I like the Blackadder font. It gives it that stereotypical wiccan idea that goes with the cauldron.
