Screen Eggs and Ham


My internship is not as busy as i'd like it to be . I am interning with a company called Screen eggs and ham. I recently did my first solo project a T-Shirt design for a Cancer walk fundraiser. I did it from start to finnish all on my own not teachers helped me  and I am pretty satisfied with what I cam up with. I had a few things Judy wanted but other wise I had creative range and control to my self. which was exciting and I feel I did a great job. It was mostly a challenge for me. the feet where hard to recreate and make them look like they were forming a breast cancer ribbon but by adding the paint swash it gave it some structure and form.  I liked they colors after playing round with them and trying different options, some advice from a friend gave me the idea to make the ribbon have more color and not just plain  pink. I like the earth tones they make it unique and I like that. Also the feet needed to gradually fade because they looked like a jumbled blob when they crossed . When it came down to sending it to Judy in the separations that was the tricky part. especially with the feet I had to make them into halftones using half tone swatches and the compound  path and clipping masks for each. but it was a great learning experience and  I made the client happy and that 's all that matters at the end of the day!
