This is one of the posters I made for Billy Eliot as a school assignment.
This is our "peace dove" at the end of the corridor that leads to our studio at school. They don't bother to repair this broken window (or any other broken windows), but I just don't mind.
Earlier I posted already three pages from this so-called calendar. We didn't have to construct a real wall calendar out of the images, but rather a posterlike sheet so that we can display them at year-end exhibition.
A small illustration that I made for a spread of my women's weekly magazine. You can see more of this magazine here.
This sole was made as a school assignment. Everyone had received a word starting with the letter "t", and had to make a "t" into an image representing the word. Of course, sole in Hungarian starts with a "t".
Whether in fashion, interior design, graphic design or fine arts, Black-and-white is almost always a very powerful combination. Maybe because our world is very colorful already. Also, this combination gives the highest possible contrast. Black-and-white looks elegant. Depending on their proportion to each other, black-and-white can look fresh and pleasant, or it can look frightful, as illustrated by the above pictures.

PS: I love dots.
I find this simple composition extremely nice. It is not symmetrical but balanced. I like the idea of taking something very simple, like this torn fence and making it into something really artful.
I made these logos at the admittance exam for the university. As I told before, we had no access to computers, thus we had to do everything by hand. I handed in the sketches as well, so that the teachers can see my thinking that went into the resultant logos. I quite like these logos. My favorite is the middle one in the upper row, where the negative shapes form a letter K. The assignment was to make a logo for a small theatre called KAMRA (meaning Pantry).
But let me return to the "drawing side" of life and share with you the above drawings. Barcsay was a teacher of my current anatomy (Anatomy for Artists) teacher, whom I like a lot. Barcsay was a constructivist painter. Still, he took on himself the responsibility of teaching human anatomy to the artist wannabes at the Academy (university), and devised a sytem for teaching anatomy. We still study by his system. You can buy his anatomy book at amazon.com.
Even in graphic design, many times I find the inspiration I need in fashion, especially for color. Whenever I make a moodboard, I would browse the Web or flip through magazines to find the mood that later on I want to convey in my design, and quite often, I find it in outfits or fashion photography.
This image is from the entrance exam for the university. The assignment was simply to take an A4-size sheet, make a 3D-object out of it and depict it any graphic way you like. This was the first ever study picture that I made using felt tip pens. I thought it would be a good challange, and it was. I used two pens, a darker redish one and an olivey green. The challange was not really when to use which pen, but to manage to finish on time, as time was short and the papaer so big. Still, it turned out to be a good idea to depict the object this way, because most everyone used charcoal or graphite, and this was a handy way to stick out from the crowd. All in all, there were some 270 people wanting to get admited to the Graphic Design Dept. of the university, and only 16 were chosen.
An illustration I made for a school assignment. Not a big deal but I still like it. It was not easy to figure out how the whole thing would work out.
