Good single cover idea?

For my instrumental solo album, I have a song called “Carpe Diem” and it’s the ballad-y song of the album. Here’s a link to my work, you can hear it there.

http://www.garageband.com/artist/joelcarli

I need art for the single (like an album cover), if you know what I mean, but I have no idea what to do of it. I’m thinking of a landscape of some sort, something a bit ambient and calm, possibly a fantasy-oriented one with no characters or buildings in it. Something that really makes you think of “Carpe Diem”.

Anybody have any suggestions? It will probably help if you listen to the song first (I hate self-advertising XD). It doesn’t HAVE to be a landscape, just as long as it’s a good idea. Thanks in advance!

maybe the figure of a person in the wind with his hair blowing and a relaxed posture( like representing freedom) or some kind of earthy or green landscape could work

Sketching faces?

Hi. I’m a sketch artist. I do still lifes, landscapes and pretty much anything. My drawings are of photo quality and I’m at the top of my game at many levels of sketching.

The problem I’m having is drawing faces. I just cant do it! It’s driving me crazy. I dont have much formal training in faces or human body parts but I am aggressively working on that right now.

Can anyone offer advice on facial techniques? I bought a book on the facial anatomy but it doesnt really help. My eye’s always look GREAt but they never match. My nose / lip sizes are never consistant. And finally, I always make their face too skinny or too fat.

Recently I drew Jack Nicholson (dvd cover from the movie “The Departed”) and while I was drawing it, I thought wow, I got it! But a week later when I looked at it I was wrong. Same ole thing. Shading was perfect but nothing was proportionate.

Any advice? Web sites? How to guides?

Speaking from experience, I am kind of the opposite of you. I love to draw faces, and such. I line out every drawing (you know the outline of the face and draw the cross in the middle and so on and so forth) If you follow that you will get the proportions correct. I always start drawing the nose first before everything because that is the foundation of the face, everything revolves around it. Then the eyes, mouth ears, cheeks, chin, and I usually finish with the hair and details. Another hint that I had problems with is you draw the face with tones. if you really look at a face it is all variations of tones. Shadows with few lines. Defining elements of a face is sculpting with shadows. I hope this helps. Take your time, and get it down. Draw parts of the face, and then put the hole thing together.

Thanks for visiting our site!

What would you consider when designing a dog-friendly home?

Imagine you were designing a home (including exterior landscaping) to be used for several decades by a family that will have dogs (various ages, breeds, personalities, etc.).

Be as DETAILED as possible about decisions/consideration for floor plan, materials, placement of fixtures (electrical outlets, lighting) and even furniture design.
greekman,

Just curious. In your home, are you the one who handles :
* mud, leaves and snow tracked in on paws?
* dog vomit and other bodily fluids from sick dogs?
* carrying young, injured, sick or elderly dogs up and down flights of stairs?
* containing/supervising young, injured, etc. dogs?

OK. Dog-friendly isn’t exactly the right phrase, but it’s fits in the question title, unlike “What would you consider when designing a home that will keep you from pulling your hair out just because you have a dog?” ;-)
Agility Man,
Thanks for all the ideas. The flooring links alone are worth 5 points. ;-)

1. First, the environment around the house.
–big fenced-in backyard that has some provision (mesh beneath the fence, stone/wood border on the inside of the fence) to make it difficult for dogs to dig underneath it.
–yard is big enough and flat enough for dogs to run, have an agility or rally-o course, tolerate several dogs but perhaps also a small kennel (for those times when you have several dogs back there but don’t want all loose at once)
–a backyard spigot (for a house and sprinkler or to set up a kiddie pool for dogs to soak in).
–at least one sunny spot for dogs to lay in and chew bones during good weather.
–at least one spot with some ground cover like ivy (smaller dogs will hide in the ivy and jump out to play/surprise others).
–one area (like a shaded corner) that is an default toilet area so you don’t have a backyard littered with dog feces.
–a shed or storage container to hold agility equipment or large toys or things you can’t leave out 365 days a year and don’t want to bring inside.

2. The house
–one level (especially if you have bulldogs, doxies, older dogs with joint problems).
–a back door that is built to either accomodate a doggie door or easy exit for dogs.
–flooring: tile would be easier to cleanup but it provides bad footing for dogs and also leads to skidding (a problem if the dogs get moving), carpet if you’ve got good house-training.
–wall surfaces that won’t be scarred if a ball or toy you toss rebounds off of it.
–Not a loud doorbell or chime (that you’ll have to train the dogs not to treat as a signal to freak out when someone comes, probably better to just have a knocker).
–short-term confinement areas. If it’s bad weather (and the dogs all need to be inside) and grandma with her walker arrives for Thanksgiving, where can you easily put the dogs so they don’t jump up on her or 3 year old Timmie? So it’s good to have a main-floor room that can easily handle your pack for a brief period of time.
–a basement that serves as a good play area in winter or bad weather that has appropriate flooring (probably some of the rubber mat options that lots of agility centers use–easy on the joints, easy to clean, easy to put down, absorbs sound–websites listed below).
–there would be doors (either through the garage or front door) that would easily handle a travel crate (especially for big dogs) so this might require french doors for easy entrance/exit.
–a garage that has enough width for a car and then all of the stuff to set out for a show/trial/trip (crates/ex-pen/supplies, dog waiting eagerly) without being cramped as you load the car to fit it all in.
–provisions for a whelping room. You have a female who gets pregnant (or is in heat) and you need a separate room for her and the litter) or to keep her away from any intact males. A good whelping room means it needs to be on the mainfloor (think of 6 week old pups negotiating stairs).
–if the dogs sleep inside, then the room they’re in has provisions for running water. This could be a passive solar heater on the roof, individual design, white noise device. But the continuous sound of running water is calming for dogs (one of the animal shelters in my area has running water above the main floor where they keep dogs and you hear almost no barking).
–a good feeding space. Meaning food is close by (and can easily be kept away from dogs like a closet that they can’t damage by pawing at) and floor space to handle bowls that is easily cleaned up if there’s a spill.
–at least a couple of spots in the house that are “sunny” and ideal for a dog to curl up in and bask in the sunrays and dream of cats to chase and bones to chew.
–something near the front door that will accomodate all of your dog “stuff” that you need when you go out for walks: bags, leads, raincoats, small bags of treats, the toys you stuff in your pockets when you walk to the park, collapsable bowl with water bottle, all of the things you sometimes need on walks. Maybe it’s a closet, a shelf, some hooks but you know you’ll need it so how do you minimize the clutter and create organization–that’s the question.
–a main room that can handle all of your pack (don’t know how many dogs you’re talking about) and your family. That means besides your sofa or easy chairs, you’ll need to accomodate a couple of dog beds or beanbag chairs.

what should you portfolio have if you want to go to art school?

pratt university,FIT (NYC). i would be going for photography. should it all be portraits or landscapes etc. And what could you put in for graphic design

When I went with my ex-boyfriend to a portfolio critique thing at an art college in Philly (can’t remember which one, it was 4 years ago) they told him they wanted to see MORE than photography, even though that would be what he was going for. They wanted to see that he was more diverse than that, and that he could do a little more than photography.

Everything should be matted and neat.
Have a wide variety of photos (portrait, landscape, industrial, nature, night, etc.)
Have it well organized (whether it be by date taken or by the type of photo or best to worst)
Make sure you write down all the information for each photo or piece (aperture, shutter speed, etc.) and any special techniques that went into taking or editing the shot
Try some work with photomanipulation or airbrushing to show your skills with post-processing
Make sure whatever you’re using to HOLD your actual portfolio is as nice and representable of you as possible (most of the students had VERY large portfolios made of leather or a water-proof, durable material)

That’s all I can really remember. I suggest you try some more info through google searches as well. Or maybe even e-mail someone at the schools or give them a call to see what they’re looking for specifically?
