finally!
One of the best things a design student can do (besides eventually getting a real job) is enter her work in competitions and hopefully recieve good reviews. Getting work into shows and competitions is something that is highly regarded on a resume when applying for positions out in the real world. This has been one of my personal goals of my senior year. The Art Director's Club of Houston has now helped me achieve my goal! Two of my design pieces were accepted into the ADCH show: the book cover for An Invisible Sign of My Own and The Hold Steady poster, posted back in April. Horray!!! Now we wait to see at what level they judge the work...Gold, Silver or Bronze. I'll keep you updated :)

Book Cover
My book cover for An Invisible Sign of My Own, by Aimee Bender (in unfolded/flattened form). This is a book about 19 year old Mona Gray who is hired to teach math to elementary school children. Mona has a history of excelling at just about everything but begins to quit everything she is good at when her dad becomes ill with a mysterious disease. Mona seeks solace in numbers and their finite equations and the answers they provide. She develops OCD tendencies of knocking on wood out of superstition as well as eating soap to try to fend off uncontrollable feelings when her love interest tries to become intimate. The book is about her struggle to abandon her calculated world for the more unwielding path of love.

The Nest
The Sweet Life
A direct mail VIP invitation for the Austin Museum of Art's annual fundraiser La Dolce Vita. The idea is that this will be hand delivered to a small list of select Austinites, foodies, and media personalities. Each batch of pasta sauce will be made by a chef from a restaurant represented at La Dolce Vita - which is indicated on the top. The tag on the basket points out how lavish this special event will be: "This isn't going to be a picnic"
