King of Kowloon

The "King of Kowloon." This man is amazing, even though he may be a little crazy. Tsang Tsou Choi is an 83 year old "caligraphy graffiti" artist who lives in Hong Kong. He writes on any surface he finds, claiming he is the King or Emperor of Kowloon (a region in Guangdong, Hong Kong). He is a really interesting man. I am working on a book showcasing some of his works and his story. This is the cover so far:

Experiments

This was an experiment I used to make a brochure. The goal was to use multiple mediums to create a design. I wanted to use traditional methods with some help from computers. Ink on paper rearranged in Photoshop CS2 and Illustrator CS2.

Work in Progress

This was created in Illustrator CS2. The project was to create a simple stamp design. I wanted to see how much I can do with Illustrator and this is what came out. It is still a work in progress...

More Posters!


More posters from Foundation Class. All done with Adobe Illustrator CS2. The goal of this project was to take photos of modern skyscrapers and buildings and incorporate them into an engaging poster design.

Foundation II Posters





These are poster designs utilizing only text. The subject is pretty obvious. I had little fun working on these, but I'm proud of the printed versions.
