Instant Gratification Fuji!

I have been saving up for this post and not in the sense of dollars and cents but in the matter of FUJI love. Do not confuse this with my cat, which yes, I am well aware, I mention frequently on this blog. Also, if you are asking yourself “Did she really name her cat after film?” You can pretty much bet I did slash the giant mountain in Japan. So here are some random pieces of my heart as seen by me through the viewfinder of a chubby orange and white Instax Mini.

Cheers!

Monday on Tuesday

A little more cheerful than his last appearance, Monday in autumn.

Digital Wonderland

I have been tossing around the idea of investing in a digital SLR for a little while now and its climbing the priority list. After taking a poll from SLR owners that I know a friend lent me her Nikon D40. It’s easy to say that I love the camera but I still need to make some comparisons before I pull out the wallet. There is also a little voice in my head telling me I don’t need to make such a hefty  purchase quite yet since I am not a purist and photoshop is my friend regardless of what kind of camera I use. I do admit carrying around what looks like a professional camera makes you consider your composition a little bit more before the snap and there really is no denying the photo quality compared to a meek point and shoot.

What really makes me laugh here though is that once I downloaded all my shots, I couldn’t resit the urge to make them look more like film quality by adding vignettes and holga-esque contrast/saturation to the photos. So the toss up here is digital camera to make my images film-like or a toy camera.

West Coast

I declared this song of the day and was puttering around in Illustrator which resulted in this piece. Sharing is caring. Oh, and buy this album it will cheer you up even if you are not sad. Yeah, think about that one for a bit.

Mission One Eyed Masquerade

This is a design I did for an event presented by  Level10. The logo was designed by my good friend by Curtis Elliott. That’s a wrap!

Butterfly Bloom

Spent some time last night experimenting with my new Veer images. Here is one sample of the results. G’night!

Monday

Allow me to introduce you to Monday. He is a little fella who’s got the blues. He never gets enough sleep and he really sucks at goodbyes. Somehow, he still remains hopeful that there will be a time were he enjoys getting up in the morning and starting the week off right.

I designed this little guy yesterday to commemorate Monday but with it being Monday and all I never got around to posting it. So here, on Tuesday is Monday.

RVA Project no.10

I am behind on my projects!! Good thing there are no grades in this class huh? I really enjoyed this one involving crochet. Granny squares are so fun. I am almost tempted to attempt a blanket. Whoa, I just said that.
