Apple Inc. Wallpaper using Illustrator

Here is a new wallpaper I made using Illustrator (this program I fell in love with). I first made the background using the custom shape tool. I used distort>twirl to twist it a little bit. Then I've played with the grunge brush to give this spilled paint everywhere. I gave different parts of the paint different blend modes. I finished all that and I found it was a little bit empty, so I made  and added Apple Inc. logo in the center.
Hope you like it :)

Extreme logo using Illustrator

This is my first logo to post. I don't know exactly what xtreme is or what does it do.......but I think it looks good :)

I've spent quite some time making the letter "x" than "treme" :) I had to do lots of adds and divides options of the illustrator to do the shadows of the "x". The shadow of the logo itself was made by copying the logo, recoloring it with grey color. Then I used shear and mask (with black to white linear gradient) to show this gradual visibility of the shadow.

Hope you like it.

Hexagon Bokeh Effect using Photoshop

Here is another bokeh effect I made using photoshop only. Honestly I never thought that photoshop would give me such a dynamic and colorful effect. It's made by the same technique as the previous bokeh effect, but with a different brush shape (which is the hexagon). Also there's the lighting effect made using simple gradient color and changing its opacity to make it almost visible.

Bokeh Effect using Photoshop

Here's my first work to post. I made this bokeh effect using photoshop only. It was really easy to do and really nice to be set as a background. Actually it has been my wallpaper ever since I've made it.
You can find several tutorials for such an effect. You can also make it with different shapes and colors.

My first blog!

Well, this is my first blog......hope it won't be the last :)
The main reason I did this blog is simply to do whatever I want!
Mainly, I'll be posting graphic designs i'm doing. I am always passionate about drawing and designing; whether designing logos, digital painting, wallpapers, ads....etc. I work with several graphic and animation software like Photoshop, Illustrator, Indesign & Flash. I'm also learning other software like premiere, soundbooth & dreamweaver
Besides posting my work, I'm gonna post my thoughts about anything that comes to my mind :)
It'd be nice to know your thoughts too and you're more than welcome to post comments.......NICE comments ;)
