senior review- CHECK!

so the semester is over and therefore i had my senior review. it was mostly just a check up and a chance to get feedback from faculty other than the faculty of our senior thesis class. i want to take this opportunity, because i have a lot of work to show and because i now have all the time to do it, to post some images. these are the images i showed at my senior review. a few of them are "re-shoots" of prior stories and some of them are new. keep in mind, these are all four-frame stories. sort of like little comics. enjoy!

open with a bang!

im brandon. im a senior at the school of art & design at the university of michigan. im an artist/illustrator/designer. as part of my senior project ill be posting to this blog some of my work, mostly progress stuff, to keep track and to let people see what im working on.

right now im basically developing my ideas and organizing my thoughts. this post is going to just show a lot of photos of the first trial run for my project. the final product will probably take the form of a children's book. but we'll see.
