I am not a big fan of the new Animal planet logo seen below
So I decided to redesign it with out all the wacky lettering and the weird sideways M that looks like a 3. I wanted to create something that was fun and edgy but also kind of cute.
The first project for my illustration class was to draw a silhouette by hand and then apply it to a paper bag, then to come up with a recycled second use for the bag. I decided to make a to go bag for a lobster restaurant that can be reused as two lobster bibs. It was a really fun process and I'm really happy with the finished product. More detailed pictures to come.
I stumbled on this picture of my first hand lettering project and it reminded me how much I love working outside of the computer. I would love to take the time to slow down and really focus on crafting more letters in the near future.
