My new background of the sheep characters

I worked more with the color guide on the background of my sheep characters, as the previous one was the shape and colorful. I want to make a contrast of the relationship between the charcters and the wall, the floor and ceiling. and now I felt more comfortable.

Myself



I’m crystal and I’m from Hong Kong, I came to U.S two years ago and I’m an international student. I'm majoring in graphic design but I love fine art a lot. The reason why I major in graphic design because I believe there will be more job opportunity for me when I under graduated. I hope to designing movie’s poster or packaging if I got the chance. In this semester, my biggest wish will be learning how to use illustrator and Photoshop well in order to success my dream.

Artistaday


In Artistaday, there’s a photographer and retouch artist called Erik Johansson who I appreciate a lot. By combing his own imagination and the photograph skill he got to make the unreal effectively real. When I saw his artwork, I got attracted by it immediately. It’s different from the other artworks I have ever seen before; it got its own style and personality. Most of the inspiration was from the things which surround us daily, we see it and what it is, but we never thought that it can be that playful. His works are all from his own imagination, its fun to be looking at and I smile every time I looked at it.
