Good Book Covers

This book cover is great, it really depicts at least the setting of the book. The titles is wall street and the cover has skyscrapers that looks like wall street, so I can assume that the book is about stocks on wall street 

This book cover is good, the title is called The Whale and it has a cover with many whales. Its a perfect cover.

 This is a cool cover as well, and a more obvious cover. Being that the title is Milk and the cover has a bottle of milk placed on it.

Although you can't really tell what the story will be about, the cover is really aesthetic and it caught my eye.
This cover is pretty cool, and gives you an idea of the setting and plot of the book.

What does a good book cover look like?

I don;t think The Taming of the Shrew captures the whole story on the cover. The cover really doesn't relate to the main storyline of the book at all, in my opinion. The cover should have an image of taming a woman, because that what the main idea is in the book, or the cover should involve some type of transformation.

Logo Reflection

The most challenging aspect  of creating my logo design was making sure I included a balance of weights and health. I wanted the theme of working out and healthy eating to be balanced, because the club isn't only just about working out, healthy diets are just as important. I overcame this, by including some fruits and vegetables on the outside of the logo, before I just had the barbell which wasn't really representing the club as a whole. The most successful part was in fact my finally choice are color. I had trouble finding the right colors that flowed well with each other as well as the whole logo itself, and that also represented fitness and healthy eating.

Whatcha Do?

                 Over the break, I went to the gym almost everyday. It was very relaxing, i got to achieve a lot and made all kings of gains. For weights, I got to hit my max bench press of 235 and I also did squats for many reps. For calisthenics, I finally got the achieve a muscle up, which is done by pulling your self up over the bar and pushing yourself up. Overall my break was fantastic. #footballislife

Museum of Natural History



This piece of artwork is located in the Natural History Museum. There are various piece of artwork that have to do with animal life and their ecosystem. For example, although vocal point are the tigers, there were also various organisms within the artwork, which really sparked my attention. They were also very realistic and detailed, it's was hard for me to come to realization that I wasn't in 
Asia at the moment. I know that this piece of work was based of wild life in Asia and it really was well put together and made me feel like I was there.

Finding Typefaces

San Serif
The "SKLZ" text is used to provide in abbreviation for skills, in which the company helps improve. SKLZ makes many item to help athletes better their skills. I think this typeface gets straight to the point and its clear.

Slab Serif
This type is used to give an abbreviation for a middle school: Tompkins Square Middle School, that I attended before MHS. This typeface is appropriate it gets a unique look to the school's shirts and makes the shirt look very aesthetic.
Modern 
This typestlye is used to show off the company "AON" as a sponsor on a soccer jersey. This text s gives a very interesting look to a soccer jersey and i personally love the text.

Old Style
The text is used for display on Poland spring water bottles. This type face is okay, but i feel like it would be better if all the letters were more smooth and more "Old Stylish" than it already is.


San Serif
This is used for tennis balls. I believe this text is perfect to go on tennis balls. The text isn't bland and is has a perfect distribution of creativity. 

San Serif
The text is used for "AXE" items. The text is well blended with the item, the colors and shades inside make it even more dynamic.
