type

When I sat down to find something that was type in graphic design, this is one of the very first ones that i saw and i loved it. The designer takes words and creates an image just out of the words. you can see what the shape is supposed to be right off the bat when you look at it but it shows it in a different way. Pixelprotest isn't just one designer, it is a website where all different artist can come to sell their designs. You can sell your designs on t-shirts, stickers and posters. I thought that was more interesting then looking at just one designer. this is a way a website and showcase up and coming artists and give them a chance to sell their work.

in the water



When we were given this assignment to find a picture of movement, color or depth form, movement stuck out in my mind. I just think of how difficult it would be to show movement in a picture. Art is very difficult for me, and I don't have the most creative imagination so I can really respect these art pieces that show movement. 


So I decided to stick with the water theme and look at a few different photographs that show movement with water. ||All pictures came from this website http://www.stockvault.net/blog/photography/beautiful-photographs-of-movement-in-water/ ||



The middle picture of the little boy puts a smile on my face. I loved being outside and in water when i was a kid. This just reminds me of being a kid and not having anything to worry about, just playing in the sprinkler outside on a hot summer day. 

And of course the last one is my favorite! the picture is just beautiful. the way the red dress flows in the water is just beautiful! They did an amazing job on capturing the movement in the water.

LOVE!

I love looking at photographs and works of art to get inspired. Many different things inspire me. But one website in particular has made it so much easier to get inspired by many different things. whether it is to organize my room, eat healthier, dress cuter, add a touch of paint in the house, or cook an amazing meal for dinner, and that website is Pinterest. I am a Pinterest FREAK! I am always pinning when i have the chance! And you can usually tell when I'm trying to study because I have been pinning a lot to avoid studying (: 

But anyway back to the website, Pinterest inspires me to do and wish for a lot of things. Being a girly girl like I am, I can't wait to get married (well I can in reality, but i can't wait to plan a wedding!) and pinterest lets me do that! So my wedding board is filled with "inspiration" for my wedding one day....hopefully soon. (hint hint maybe my boyfriend should read this ;)

 now this dress is everything I think a wedding dress should be. It is the ULTIMATE dress-in my eyes. Its elegant and sexy at the same time, and timeless. Now I don't know if I could ever have the guts to pull it off, but WOW a girl can dream and be inspired to plan a elegant wedding just by looking at this picture!

Heres another one that I would die for just for fun! Man all this wedding dress looking is making me get that wedding fever. :) ANYWAY! Although Pinterest does let my inner girl come out to plan my dream wedding and create a baby board for what my kids one day will wear and what their rooms will look like, it also has many pictures that are not about fashion or love or babies, but that are truly inspirational. I have a soft spot for the elderly and love, and pinterest is full of their sweet pictures.  
I love "old" couples who have been together for decades, and i think their love is inspirational. Love isn't easy, and isn't perfect, but just by a simple picture I am reminded that Love can last, if you work at it.
