Work
I and my girlfriend have been accepted to make a music CD cover for Christmas songs. It’s the “Nāc Līdzās!” organisation, www.naclidzas.lv you can go in and check it out the website. The CD cover must be ready till next Friday, so I must remember to work on it my all spare time. Today I also haven’t listened to Rob Zombie, cause in that music all I’ll do is make everything with sharp edges and some how do it a bit aggressive and that’s not what I am aiming for. So far did 7 alike works in Adobe Illustrator CS5.1. That’s it for now, tomorrow sketching SE XPERIA 8 for school, thinking of how to make an chair from one sheet of metal that hasn’t been done so far and back to the cover. Haven’t got the time to check may email only once per week and that means a good twenty minutes +/- goes away to it alone. But hey, this is the busiest time of this year.

At last!
Hei! It’s been a long journey from my last post. Moved in with my girlfriend, working on several projects on and off school related, lost many data on my PC, reinstalled it and it feels great to live with a legal OS. Finaly I got an 3D software that functions on this old rustbucket and it’s the 3ds MAX 2012 design, oh, and I now have 64bit system insalled. Working on an old project and I am glad to. I abandoned it because of the lack of skils, but now I know what I have to do there. Listening to some great music now, I once put on when visitors came, so they should listen to my metalcore, but now I get all the energy I need from it. Will try and create an 3D and afterwards an actual chair which I’ve designed. WOW, so many ‘I’s! Leaning towards more ecological (not HIPSTER ecological) lifestyle (still eating Meat). O.k. Now off to learn what the new and improved version of Autodesk’s 3ds MAX can do. Also learning about Typefaces and InDesign. In metalworks now I am making my own designed bracelet with gold and silver.
O.k. Now it’s really time for me to go.

In Progress
I’ve been working on a project this whole day and I must say it’s going pretty well. I think that changing my whole internet identity was a huge influence on my recent work. With the internet ID change I also changed style of my work and now it looks more professional. I can’t wait to finish it, although, it will take several months, but in the end it will look great. I miss browsing all the design websites, just read a book called Ecological Design, by teNeues and honestly I was expecting more material. Coverage on how and why, prices and more. Opening a book I expect to get as much learning material as possible.

New day, new excitement
Yesterday I started to work on a new project and I am trilled about it. It will cost me a lot, but what matters is that it will look like nothing I have done. But the step back is that my keyboard broke, I am writing this using my mouse and an on screen keyboard. As I wrote this my new keyboard arrived, so nothings lost after all. So, till later, must plug that thing in and put it to work.

White with shades
Just a couple of day’s I’m thinking about getting a white tattoo with shades on my left arm, instead of a Shogun piece. But we’ll see about that, cause I would like to get some more info on how the white tattoo looks after several months/years, not freshly inked.
If by any chance you stumble across on some images of white tattoos with an outstanding quality after some years since they’ve been done, then simply just send me the link in Twitter: @APadrevics or in #FB Armands Padrevics.

Hamlet vs. Design
I have to read Hamlet for the History of literature and after that Percy Bysshe Shelley’s “Adonaïs” and it’s due to Monday, but unfortunately I after 10 pages stumble upon a new idea or a must to do things for design. At first it was that I have to learn Indesign, not only to have the bundle of Adobes CS5 and use 4 software’s tops. Then I search on for free basic tutorials about that, found them, downloaded them, back to reading. Now another 10 pages passes and I started to wonder if my older ideas could be combined into one multifunctional designed object. Did some sketches, done some small research, fine, back to reading. when getting to the part where Hamlet is thinking of making players play an act so he could see his uncle act, BAM, ideas for my graphic identity for the applied graphic, cards, post cards, cd covers and stuff. O.k. Back to reading. Then I started again to consider to update my genius on iTunes (this doesn’t concern design, but still) so I did it. Now I listen to apples created mixes for me and writing this blog, after that I gonna remove the internet from my laptop and finally finish reading.
PS: On non related subject is there a site where there are graphics and studies that shows how well led lights can be seen trough white opal (white matte organic glass), white and colored led lights. If there is, it would be so helpful if you could share the link with me.

Design Projects
Recently I’ve been putting a lot of thoughts in some projects. One furniture and two electric devices. So far the concept is great, but unfortunately I stumbled on some major problems. Materials are rather easy to find, but really hard to put together the way I want it. The cost is also huge, but manageable. Also schools standing in the way, I go in Rigas Design and Art’s High School, in Metal Design, and well these ideas hold very little metal. But from some teachers I can ask many advises, from where to get and how to put things up. Well as some of you can see, my site isn’t quite ready, cause well, as I been trying to work on some designs I haven’t got the time to work on it. And I just don’t want an usual theme you can take from Tumblr it self. I’ll upload some pictures of work-in progress when I’ll have the time to.

This might be worthy to put my hands on, but could it keep up with a professional and have about pulls and slides?
