Somewhere

 One of my favorite series is Drive to Survive on Netflix, so I snapped a picture of Sebastian Vettel in his support Ukraine helmet. Then I took a picture of myself and with the help of Photoshop I became Alexa "Vettel".  Enjoy

Poster

Image
Hey everyone! This is my poster inspired by one of my favorite series "Heartstopper". This series focuses on inclusivity and the different challenges young people face nowadays. This show portrays a positive view of what the LGBTQ+ community represents, while also talking about topics like body image, dietary disorders, violence, bullying, self-acceptance, and mental health. In my poster, I decided to use the following color palette as they represent diversity while getting people's attention with the colorful brightness. The two people in the image are Nick and Charlie, the main characters. Also, I decided to include the phrase "You don't owe anything to anyone" as it is a phrase mentioned in the show, which talks again about this topic of self-acceptance and being healthy both mentally and physically for your own enjoyment and not to satisfy others. Enjoy!

I chose to illustrate one of my favorite pictures because I think my future self would really enjoy remembering this moment. This was the day in which we got our adorable kittens, I was so happy and in love. One of them got set on the table and decided the flowers in the base looked like something she had to inspect. She stood by the base for what felt like an eternity until she decided to attack. She won and the base ended up in the trash.  That day made me so happy and I know my future self will appreciate seeing this image more than a portrait or something else. I decided to use the font Script MT Bold because even though it is a strong and thick font, its curved edges show a sense of balance and softness, which I think describes me accurately. Also, the contrast between Black and White was intended as it shows a simplistic and elegant concept. Enjoy!  

Letter to: My Future Self

  September 20 th , 2023 Dear Future Alexa, I have so much to say, but thinking about it makes me feel sick. 10 years is a long time, and I am sure a lot has happened. I have so many questions and even though we are excited for the future, thinking about it keeps us up at night. Do we have a family? Or work? Or where do we live?, Did we graduate? How is everything back home? It’s just so much wonder and work, while also trying to enjoy the present. My hopes are incredibly high thinking how you might feel after achieving many dreams I currently have and probably some I haven’t even thought of yet. I can’t wait to experience love, the happiness of finding love, extending family, and just getting to live with all those ideas and thoughts that have crossed my mind at some point. Hopefully, you still rule everything you do based on what your heart says, your passions, and thinking about how your younger self might feel about the possibilities. Do we still like F1 and Heartstop...

Final Logo: Positive and Negative Versions (Explained)

Image
  As mentioned before, in my logo I wanted to capture optimism, I wanted it to be simple, of course, and include my name, and considering I want to work in the sports industry, I wanted to add something related to sports. So I decided on a green color palette as it is a color that represents multiple aspects of my life. It also happens to be the color psychologist associated with optimism and this idea of "enjoying the little things". My name is included as the focus point, with a simple and modern font. The triangles on top and bottom actually form the letter "S", standing for sports. I am pretty happy with my results and I think this logo would work well to brand myself.
