This Is The First Part Of The Poem Book I Created As My FMP (Final Major Project) Of My Level 3 Graphic

This is the first part of the poem book I created as my FMP (Final Major Project) of my level 3 Graphic Design course.

The book is called ‘A Poet’s Quarry’, it’s called this because it’s a place that inspiration can be found and extracted. All the poems were written by me through out my life and were finished off for the FMP. 

The illustrations that go with the poems were created using mixed media, such as collage, water colour paint, photography, and others. They were first sketched out by hand, then they were edited and coloured in Adobe Photoshop. Some of the illustration also include the latest version of my avatar in them.

The physical book was bound and put together by me by hand.

The book, illustrations, and poems are all created by me.

I didn’t make the fonts.

This is the illustrated poem page I created for the illustrated poem book, that was sold at our end of year show. It was also a project we had to do for our course, Graphic design Level 3 year 2. We got to choose a public domain poem of our choice, and had to create an illustrated page for it. I chose ‘Rain by Oliver Herford,’ because I love rain, and cats.

It’s a mix media piece that has a water colour painted background, and a inked foreground (the rain, kitten, and girl with umbrella), put together and edited in photoshop.

This is a poem poster I created for a small research project on recent events, I chose the news of Switzerland legalizing same sex marriage. I included imagery that represents Switzerland such as the mountains that are found in Switzerland and their flag. I also included LGBT and same sex marriage imagery such as the LGBT rainbow flag, and the two brides getting married, as well as including colours that represents different pride flags.

The poem was written by me.

The font isn’t mine.

This is a  3D poster that I created for Unit 3 Sustainability of HND year 1. It’s created from biodegradable material, such as card, tissue paper, string, and recycled Easter egg boxes. I cut and glued everything together by hand, as well as plaited the string for extra strength to hold up the poster.

The text says: “Prevent the Change by Making a Change”. The change that needs to be prevented is climate change.

The art piece was created by me.

This is a quote poster and font that was created by me for my typography project for HND course year 1. The brief we got instructed us to design a poster for the Ministry of Sound using a song quote of our choice. 

We had to create a font based on that quote we chose. I chose the song quote ‘Garden of Sound’ from the song ‘rock and roll heaven by The Pretty Reckless’. I created a font based on the garden of Eden as the quote reminded me of it, especially paired with the title ‘rock and roll heaven’. I drew the font by hand with pencil first then inked it with pen. I then edited it in Adobe Photoshop. 

I hand painted the background first, then edited it in Adobe Photoshop.

The quote belongs to The Pretty Reckless.

The Ministry of Sound Logo belongs to the Ministry of Sound.

The font was created by me.

This is an original character that I drew and inked by hand, then coloured in Photoshop for my vintage project of my Art & Design Level 1 college course. Her name is Poppy spitfire, she’s a robot based on the fighter plane the Spitfire. 

I had to change the hair style because it was to modern. While I was at it I decided to give her a fighter pilot hat. The left one is the original, and the one on the right is the one I edited.
