My thought process as a designer doesn’t just formulate in my head and then jump onto the computer. I always have to get my sketchbook out! But honestly, I’m not that great of a sketcher!

 So I do a ton of writing! If you look in my sketchbooks you’ll see a lot of writing, I guess that is just how I get all my ideas out of my head.

 Then, I draw my crazy boxes that no one will really understand except for me.  :)

 This picture I’m sharing with you guys is THE most detailed that I’ve gotten with a project! Seriously! I never draw cute little shapes and ideas like you see above on the right. Its usually nothing but the crazy boxes on the left side of the book. :) And color swatches! Always color swatches. Either from pencils, markers, paint, or cut outs of something.

 For graduation I want these Pantone Books: Yes Please!

 I’m debating on just buying the used ones… They sound like they are fine.

 Oh! So… those sketches above ^ turned into this:

 And now I’m off to work on a website, an ad, business cards, and a self portrait.

 May 10th will be here in less than a month!!
