Product Design

As of recent I've been taking a product design and illustration course and I've really been broadening my horizons from the 2D world to the 3D and making my illustratios come to life for different products. The following are some products I've designed.
This skateboard was done in Spring of 2010-the assignemt was to come up with a design that would work for a certain market-mine was boys 14-17 who would enjoy a nautical themed board. This is on display currently at the Tea Garden in Uptown.
This is a T-Shirt design i did for a T-Shirt project in the same Products & Illustration class-the theme I chose was birds and crazy squiggles.
This piece was done in Illustration & Products in 2010 for a "Stationary" Assignment. I chose to make a set of Engagement Party invites for a couple who enjoy a simple sleek look to their invite. These could also be switched out and used as a wedding invite. The INvite is 5x9 inches-rough paper on top of gold velum. The envelope is black shiny paper with the same gold velum inlay. The bird cages are cut paper collage on both the invite and the envelope. This piece helped me to really push my collage work-and my work for a client to better understand a need for things in a area I don't necessarily specialize in.
This piece is my most recent project in my Products & Illustration class-A Bedding Design. This design is a monster theme for a little boys room ages 3-10. Each monster has its own name and place in the pattern. The bedding is a striped fitted sheet,a monster top sheet and 4 different monster pillow cases to choose from.

This is the final "wow" item of my Final Collection for Illustration & Products.The collection is called "Cupcake Heaven" and includes the bedding (as you see here),A clock,Coat Hanger, Mirror and a Lamp. All themed with the same colors and icons. This collection would fit for any girl ages 3-15 who are fans of pink and the cute cupcake icon.
