Zine : Raw

This semester's graphic design class this semester = chill. We were given a list of projects to choose from, and from there you design what you want/whatever you feel would improve your portfolio. First on my list was this:

SLEAZENATION” OR “MOLOTOV”
An abundance of front line fashion, music and design with added insolence, always for model citizens...


This pretty much sums up everything I'm into, so I decided to make a high end zine. With the assistance of the wonderful photographer Hadar Pitchon, I was provided with the means to make what I had always wanted to. This will be a limited run of 20, which I do not currently have printed, but they will be available at my Senior Portfolio show April 30. And so, without further ado, I reveal a few of my favorite spreads from Raw:



Made up of Japanese brush pen, paint on glass, paper cut-outs, graphite, ball point pen, charcoal, conte crayon, watercolor, markers, and anything else I could find in my stash of art stuff. All drawings and type by me (of course).

really liking the feel of this - the illustration and images work so well together. glad you gave a description of what techniques/tools you used because that shed a lot more light. i'd love to see the whole thing - if you don't have any copies left to sell after your show, maybe i could talk you into pdf'ing a copy!

Thanks! I'll see what I can do for you lady. I'd have no problem sending you a pdf, but maybe I could make you a special copy if need be.
