Psychology in CMYK

Here is the colored version of my latest doodle shirt design. In case you don't know CMYK means Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Key (Black). It is the primary color of printers and to RGB is for monitors. The challenge here is to create various effects in coloring to make it more psychedelic and lively. I hope you like it :D

Morality

Tuesday, June 23, 2009.

Assignment in RS:
Illustrate morality based on your experience.

Morality is basically knowing what is good and what is bad. It is something that we don't have after birth, but is something that we develop as we grow. Our concept of morality is highly influenced by someone who has the authority. As kids, we look up to our parents and follow their set of "rules." These rules determines what is right and what is wrong. As we experience things in life, we also discover the outside world. Our concept of morality is also influenced by our religion, our culture and society. But as we mature, we become more independent. We determine, based on our experiences and the influence of the external forces, our own concept of morality. If you are matured enough, that person in power that influences your concept of morality would be yourself.

just want to share my doodle entries number 48 and 49 in my journal/planner, dated february 26-28, 2009. i scanned it for marejada but d xa ginamit so i decided to post it here n lng.hehe
the first doodle is about our net connection na bumalik after a week of vacation.lol. the second one is about this virus that i thought i had. the week before kc kinagat (ata) ako sa paa ng pusa dun sa golf. di ko nakita kung kinagat ba tlga ako o "kambras" lang sa sobrang bilis ng pangyayari. so the week after i was injected like 6 times ng antirabies para xur.. nwei, i just imagined how it would feel if totoo ngang kinagat ako ng miming(like ooozing scary stuff in my body).

On Chowder and Paisleys

Have you seen Chowder? Oh that cute stupid thing in Cartoon Network? Well, Chowder it the next cutest thing in TV. He is a squeezy toy inspired character who is an apprentice of a chef named Mung Daal. What I like about the show is the style of animation that they used. They used patterns on the characters' clothing or skin, when a character moves, their patterns do not follow, but display as a "static" background.

I also love how they used stop motion and puppets at the end of the show. Anyways, I made this character while practicing drawing in Flash. I used one type of brush and created variations of thickness by zooming in and out while drawing. I created the bold outlines first and then zoomed it to created dots and dashes for the details. The design is inspired by paisley patterns. I colored and textured it in photoshop using this amazing victorian textures [link], of course inspired by the show "Chowder". I named it "Ambao" coined by my sister's goddaughter, Mica, which means daga or mouse. (she is afraid of tiny fury creatures.) Click on the image for larger view.

Ambao the Paisley

Lava Java

Few posts ago, I featured a doodle named "I heart Java" which me and my classmate made during our class. This work is kind of old but I think its not too late to post this. I traced the sketch in illustrator and made a psychedelic portait out of it. I made this because I truly love programming *sarcasm here.* haha. I changed the title to Lava Java cause I think its easier to remember and much cooler. ;D

Primitibo Sketch

This is basically my interpretation of nature and technology. We humans are at the center of all creations. Our task is to preserve what God has created for us. We are so blessed to have beautiful fishes in the oceans, beatiful landscapes and majestic celestial formations. Technology is a gift from us so we use it appropriately. We should not let technology destroy nature, instead let it be a tool for humans to explore and discover means to preserve it.

Meet Nathan and Drix

Nathan and Drix are my fictional characters that i designed for my animation class. Nathan is my protagonist and Drix is his sidekick. Nathan is an 18 year old boy who cannot live without his headphones, pen and sneakers. He loves music and arts. He's a hiphop dancer and he loves wearing retro inspired shirts. He's a lefty, and drawing is his past time. Wherever he goes, he will always look colorful. (He love neon colors.) He is softspoken and introverted but happy-go-luck and optimistic all the time. Drix, on the other hand, is a walking record player. No one can hear his music but the one that owns him. His music changes to the tune of his master's mood. He is such a charming pet and whenever Nathan feels happy or sad, he'll always be at his side.

Pinkadoodle

To be an artist you have to practice sketching or doodling everyday by simply starting at drawing objects around us. Through this, we make our eyes familiar with the basic shapes of things that we see. Toki Doki is one of my favorite graphic designers because of his creative and very simple character designs that is made out of simple everyday objects such as milk cartons or tape recorders. He is a pop artist located in US and is highly influenced in Japanese pop. All of his artworks can be seen in his outfit, from top to toe. Here is one of cszdoodles that is inspired by tokidoki.
