Mixed Media Mannequin 1st Assignment

For my first mixed media assignment, I wanted to play around with an idea I have always had. I always wanted someone to create, either it be a painting, drawing or graphic design image of me, or something that represented me. So I got to thinking, that I had all the tools I needed to do so myself. I first grabbed one of my many foam mannequin heads I use to house my wigs, grabbed on of my new french pink wigs and a bow, added a choker from my jewelry collection to give it depth. I took a photo of it, then I uploaded the image into Adobe Photo Shop and proceeded to find clippings of real human features and the bratz dolls features and make a face for the foam mannequin head since it was already a blank canvas. I found designer labels that I relate to and made a message that goes down the next saying "Bebe, Go Couture Yourself" its the nice way of something else if ya get my drift haha. Though I did find it very creative in a sense.

The target audience is anyone and any design form is welcomed. I am going to mainly use Adobe Photoshop, it is in fact one of my strong suits and will be able to transform my design concepts below very well. Basically it will achieve what and how I would like it turn out. My Design concept, I wanted to think really outside the box that would make you think.."What the hell?" But yet it is still very appealing to the eye and is very interesting and for most never really been seen before. I guess you could say it is like a puzzle and that is some what I was going for. Yes the design is dark and the color schemes will reflect such. Purple background, with red tongue, brown pieces for the faces and hair. Here are my design sketches:

The Hudson Valley Inn Logos & Business Card

NEW NEW NEW When thinking about the design concepts for The Hudson Valley in, I did take into consideration for the scenery it provided for city dwellers. Although I still wanted to give it a classy cozy type feel also. I kept a color scheme of black and red, I figured a dark red would be a nice contrast to the black but also pleasing to the eye and also easy to read. I know a typical business card is horizontal, but when putting everything together, I felt as though my designs looked better in the a vertical manor. Plus I believe it gives it more of a personal touch. I made sure to have the back of the business card readable and neat, all a business card needs is basic information, and in this case information of the restaurant manager. I also made it a little authentic by having Maines actually zip code. I also added a personal touch and added a filter to the card as a hold, like a card stock with some light ridges.

M5 Website Part Two

I have been playing around with the different templates for my website and I want to stick to something clean and simple. So I have put together some fonts and images I am going to incorporate within the layout. What I have noticed however is that they have multiple links just to contact someone. So I will have a Home Link, but the other information like contact information will be located on the page, and possibly with a send a message box as well. As for people to take a look at my work, since I have been posting my manips within my Facebook and Instagram that will be workable links that you will be able to click on and open in a new tab which I will provide. I want to have a small bio about myself and what I do, similar to an artiest statement I suppose. The color schemes will be pink and will feature bow accents hence the name Bowdacious Designs. These are just some ideas I have been playing around with. I have also been working on things on the actual website. Link to Instagra...
