Bonefish Art Gallery Landing Page and Content Page: Air Rider - Deck Art

This is the concept I've come up with for the Bonefish Art Gallery landing and content page. This page was designed for their "Air Rider Deck Art" event where they recognize the creative, colourful and even provocative designs found on skateboards. These pages were modified once before. I originally used a blurred background image of a skate park, with a large picture of my own deck design with a title bar that just had the title of the event on there; it looked like monkey shit.... So I went back and re-designed the entire landing page, and this is what I came up with. I think it looks a hell of a lot better than my first concept. The content page had the same background as the landing page and the same "large picture" concept. I changed that to have a slightly smaller image of my deck with a film strip of other photographs of my deck. The "Our Sponsors" section of the page was not included in the original concept, but after shrinking the image of my skate deck, I had some space to work with, so I figured I should mention some sponsors of the event.

Roy Lichtenstein

On the botton is a piece by Roy Lichtenstein titled "Crak" on the top is my drawing loosely based on Lichtenstein's work. This assignment was done in my Art History class in my Art Fundamentals program when we were studying the different movements of fine art i.e. Pop Art, Surrealism etc.

Graffiti Letters

Some graffiti letters I was experimenting with sometime ago. Agent Orange and Bad Brains are two bands that I enjoy listening to, so I figured I'd write their names in graffiti to loosely conincide with the punk rock attitude.

Artist Research Assignment piece #2

This is the second of the two pieces I've drawn that were inspired by Derrick Hodgson. Original images uploaded by Graeme Nishida.

Artist Research Assignment piece #1

So this is the first piece of art inspired by Madreal a.k.a Derrick Hodgson. This is one of two pieces I've drawn for my Sketching for Communications class. It felt so damn good to draw again, I've missed it so much! Original images uploaded by Graeme Nishida.

Graffiti

Trying my hand at some graffiti art. This was a project done in my Colour Theory class in the Art Fundamentals program at Seneca College. I will be graduating from that program in June.
