anzac day adventures

Here is a family photo , we went on an adventure to the King Valley in Victoria. From Tatong, to Tolmie, we saw Kelly's tree. Where one of Ned Kellys gang was shot. Then to Powers lookout, a great view of the valley. Station Creek Winery, where we sampled some reds and whites. A game of bat and ball at Lake William Hovell and then it was time to come home again. The kids gave the day a thumbs up kind of day.We all had fun.

Easter box 2006

This is the Easter box I made for Hugh's child carer's 2006. I made a pattern for it then input colours and recreated eggs, bunny and flower using Adobe Illustrator. Then put photo inside the bunny head.The carers like them, even if Hugh didnt.

vintage viewing grape logo

This is my other logo to promote the wine label exhibition we are doing as part of our graphic Design course.

Vintage Viewing Logo

I took this photo , using Binoculars to create the round shape and then had the camera looking through the binoculars with the bottle in the distance. Then put a filter over it in photoshop. This was for an assignment for an upcoming wine label exhibition, we all had to do a logo to promote it. I have 2 logos, the other one having grapes and a photo in the grapes.

April update

I havent added to my blog for a while, but here are the two latest assignments I have been working on. The next one incorporates a wine exhibition logo, and wine labels. So it should be big.
The last couple of weeks have seen , the school holidays come and go.
We spent a week at Mt Beauty , and saw my Grandmother who is 95. I then came home and created a photo album for her to remember what she did while she was visiting Victoria. Then it was back to school and the fun of it all over again.
Purchased "Long Way Round "dvd 's for my husbands birthday, about Ewan McGregor and Charlie Boorman riding motorbikes around the world. Worth a watch if you come across it. And was speaking to a friend today and her son was glued to the tv watching it as we spoke.
