New blog site - feeds updated

I have revamped my entire website and this blogspot.com page will be dormant from this date forward. I have updated my Feedburner to the new blog feed: http://beezeyeview.net/feed.

Please visit my newly designed Word Press photography site and get comfortable ~ I look forward to the new changes and seeing you along the way!

I can't help it!

I don't know how the average business handles marketing, logo design, and the "look". Well, what I mean... how can they keep it the same for so long? I am one of those people that change my living room around every few months (at least the smaller items if I can't move the furniture). I am so thrilled that I have the chance to change my blog and website whenever I want though! Sigh...no, it doesn't fit the norm to change your branding all the time. But I can't help it! I just cannot help but to change... do you like it?

Oodles of Projects

It may seem as though I have not been around, but I have been busy! I thought I would post a few samples of the small projects I have done over the last month. The demands for my graphic design have steadily been increasing, so it's nice to work artistically outside of photography for a bit. But, I do miss getting behind the lens just as much!

Here is an existing generic clipart that was requested as part of the church logo. The original colors of the cross were too overwhelming to add anything to them, so I toned them down, changed the coloring a bit, added a few elements, and polished it up.

Here are a couple recent bookmarks - these seem to be all the rage now. They are a great way to advertise, use as a short program or schedule of events, or even have them folded and use as a unique business card!

I am learning to become more proficient in Illustrator and hope to get some intense training in over the summer. Meanwhile, I often start off with some free vector elements that are available on the internet and learn from them. These two I did for my local church.

The woman figure on the far right is an original creation I made (hence the copyright symbol). It is often hard to find this type of "dignified" artwork. I hope to offer this type of elegant, wholesome, female artwork for those seeking it.

Lastly, this one is an on-going "test project" that my kids are designing with me. I hope it sparks their interest to learn more artistic software programs as well! I'll post the final design when it can be revealed. *wink*

I hoped you enjoyed the "gallery" ~ I do hope to get to snapping some pictures again soon and I'll do my best to get them posted. Wow, I just realized I never posted any pictures from my cruise last month. Oh no! Well, I will post my absolute favorite of my hubby and I at the beach for now.... (didn't get to have fun editing them yet).

And another one of my hubby - no, he's not Mexican, but I thought the picture was THE best! And lastly, the ocean view as we sailed home the last day with high winds. I don't miss the sea legs, but the cruise was amazing!


Until next time ~ happy spring!
