LUCAS HOWLETT 2011-2012 PORTFOLIO
Schoolvetica Hand-made typeface, 2011 The quirky idea for this Back to School ad was inspired by the natural letter forms found in ordinary school supplies. Type can be fun, it doesn’t always have to be made on a computer.
My Lovely Lady Animal representation, 2011 This is a graphic representation of a proud camel. I chose to represent an animal with minimal detail. She is cropped so that her hump is visible, a key feature of a camel. Add some Fergie lyrics to top it all off.
Deborah Forbes Faculty member portrait, 2012 This illustration’s influence was based on the style of Professor Deborah Forbes. Everything from her passion for reading to her fascination with having her own personal stamp are included.
Visual Communications Concept logo, 2012 A clean and clear concept logo expresses that the Visual Communications Program is truly about communicating messages visually. The students in my program are smart and creative thinkers.
Shigeo Fukuda Hypothetical poster exhibition, 2012 Medicine hat is a city in between the prairies and the Rockies, two geological aspects of Canada. An impossible object pays tribute to the legendary graphic designer Shigeo Fukuda, and his excellent use of illusion and perception.
What’s Wrong? Puzzle illustration, 2012 The influence for this image was based on a combination of Adolph Treider’s vintage posters and an image of a cyclist. The image on the right is different in numerous ways from the image on the left. A bizarre but playful piece.
Ten Tree Apparel Graphic media, 2011-2012 18 of 58 pieces of men’s and women’s clothing for Ten Tree Apparel, a clothing company that supports having an active lifestyle and a clean atmosphere by planting ten trees for every item sold. When designing for Ten Tree I try to keep things clean, playful and wearable. www.tentree.org
