GraysonArt strikes again...
« on: December 21, 2005, 02:47:52 PM »
Hiya kids... ;)

Well, it's been a long while since I've shared any designs and/or artwork over in these parts, and since it's the winter solstice and everything ;), I thought....what the hey:

These are a couple DVD covers I designed for a packaging graphics class [had to redesign a couple DVD covers; said DVD's having a common theme throughout - in my case, 2 Grayson films. Then, designed a box to house said DVD's...making it into a boxed set.] Being the odd one in my class, I of course chose: the 1962 "Satan In High Heels," and the 1966 "Who Are You, Polly Maggoo?"





This is just the back cover, spine, and front cover of the box:



{note: the above aren't shown at full size...the DVD covers are approximately 7.5" x 10.5", the box is a bit bigger...}

And for a certain web class, I had to create a personal/portfolio site. My apologies in advance if it takes a long time to load...need to tweak the file size of the pages a bit (sigh.) And I will be adding more artwork in the next couple years before I graduate, no doubt....

I really like the DVD covers you did. They look great. Thanks for sharing them. Don't feel bad about being the odd one in the class, I would always do my school projects with Dark Shadows or one of the actors as the central theme. I did my 11th & 12th grade book reports on Angelique's Decent & Dreams of the Dark respectfully.

Finally, some new artwork to admire!!!  I was beginning to wonder if you'd switched majors to film or something!!!  [santa_wink]

I absolutely love the shades of blue used in the "Polly Magoo" design.

Thanks for sharing...... [8_2_74]

Where can I download the full-size versions of this fab artwork?  The Satan In High Heels one is a vast improvement over the one I have from Something Weird Video!!!

Excellent job, Heather!
I get a kick out of these guys who think they're so clean, when all the time they're trying to cover up their dirt.

Wow...Gosh... thanks everyone; you're too kind!   [santa_kiss]


I don't feel bad about being the odd apple persay (I really should've said eccentric {cough}), in fact sometimes I revel in it. >:D Its just that it can get a bit tiring explaining who Grayson & DS is, over and over, to an unenlightened few. ;) Oh and...my apologies, artwork not available for download yet. [by the way, if I or my cohorts see artwork posted elsewhere without my permission, I will get out the whip...;)]


But, it being the holiday season and all...if someone wanted a copy of anything, feel free to PM me your contact info (email) and I could send you a .jpg or .pdf of said piece. I still think its a shame I can't share some of these things "live" so to speak... [santa_sad]
However, I was fortunate enough to show some of these pieces to a few fellow Graysonphiles a couple months ago at a private get-together. I'm glad I was able to give a few friends an eyeful, for a couple minutes at least.  [santa_wink]  xo
