I'm always looking to improve my skills as a graphic designer and create new and better work. I find the best way is through projects, especially ones that I can show off in my portfolio. The more realistic the project, the better. While on my way to work, I thought of a project idea that truly excited me.
The Project
As I put my focus on my drawing skills, my hope is to create fun, beautiful illustrations that others will enjoy. To give my illustrations multiple lives, I would love to open an online shop, selling products like t-shirts, pins, stickers, etc.. What better project to focus on than my own mock online shop with a grand opening campaign.
The Plan
In the coming months, I will begin by reviewing and updating my brand, creating a style guide to give it focus. Next, I will create and choose my best illustrations to put on products to "sell". Finally, I will create a mock online shop, and create a mock campaign for the grand opening of the store.
This will be a large and involved project that will take some time to create. I'm excited to work on something I'm truly interested in, and will lead to a future purpose. It will lay the groundwork for the store I envision and give me a look and feel that I want to go with for my brand. I can't wait to get started and share with you my process and the final project.
