365artwork Flickr Project

One of the first important things I’ve learnt from my ambitious idea to create a piece of artwork a day for a year is that 1 day is not enough to produce something of the level of quality I’m aspiring to every day (obvious in hindsight). Read the rest of this entry »

Mash up.

This piece is part of my 365artwork Flickr project. I’ve been inspired recently by some new photoshop brushes I’ve downloaded and I’ve been doing a lot of tutorials in as you can probably notice. I’ve never really used many fancy photoshop brushes before so it’s fun to discover there are many good ones available for use. The picture has elements of architectural, grungy, 80’s and computer game styles. I think the composition, creates energy, depth and visual movement.  It took me in total around 2.5 hours. The piece is called ‘Gnilo’.

Artwork

A piece of artwork, part of my 365artwork challenge (to make a piece of artwork everyday for a  year). This one is inspired by a bunch of new photoshop brushes I downloaded yesterday so props to the makers of the brushes. It’s an experiment.

Mountain Biking Georgia Website

A design for a website for mountain biking in the Caucasus in Georgia called Georiders.

The idea is a custom logo with a mountain and chainring theme. A bit of grunge with a scrappy border and gaffer tape navigation.

Some nice photos on the front page but not sure whether to have a gallery. Image here is of Polaroid flash gallery.

Design is based on 12 column grid. 3 columns underneath - featured ride, downloadable gps routes, and events.

The footer will contain some sharing stuff, advertising, legal, mini links, perhaps blog posts.

It’s a work in progress, a labour of love because it’s partly my project. Mountain biking in Georgia has so much potential and my priority is to get out and ride when possible!

I will post more updates and log the progress of the site here on my portfolio.

Hi, my name is Andrew Welch, this is my new blog. The idea of this place is to showcase my art, website work and audio. The reason is that I’ve never really had a place to showcase all of my creative work together. Read the rest of this entry »

First Brokerage Property Website
