Why I like my graphic design class

Sure its 1:30 in the morning but I got to learn about Pop Art while creating this logo for a fake cafe. Now I just need to come up with fake menu items. I'll need to create the design of my menu for the next phase of this project.

I've decided my cafe will be only about pop art from 1950 -80s hence the logo. Pop art was born out of a sort of f-up to elitist abstract expressionism of the 30s and 40s, the artist took images and objects in pop culture and called it art. So, I was thinking about basic dishes but with a twist. There the obvious like tomato soup. But maybe something like neon green eggs and ham or maybe names of dishes like "Drowning Women" Chocolate Cake. OR maybe play with irony and parody by creating a cow's body out of tofu? hmmm...

Ideas?

Just because

I'm alive!!!

A huge tidal wave or 'things' crashed on me after I got out of the hospital. When your life just stops for two weeks things kinda pile up.

Volleyball started up again (my old team sent me flowers while I was in the hospital), I got assign to two major projects at work and my graphic design class is frustrating (because I dont know photoshop) and exciting, with projects every week.

Below are some of the projects I've worked on so far. Let me know what u think.
