Star Calendar

Humans have used turned to the sky at night and marveled at the stars since the very beginning. Every culture has names for them and stories about them. It is from the very movements of the heavens themselves that we derived our sense of time.

These cosmic thoughts were swirling through my mind as I designed this 2010 calendar.

It's a 365-day calendar book. Each page features not only the date and a space to write your notes and to-do lists and reminders and important dates, but a glimpse at what the stars for that evening will be. Thus, the calendar is also a 365-page flipbook that reveals the celestial movements.

I'd love to show off the one I printed and bound, but I need to get it back from my teacher first.

In the mean time, here's some sample pages.





That's it for now. Updates to come?

Poster/Cover

Hey, so that astronaut I was working on ages ago is more or less done. I turned it in for my school's all school space-time themed project, but I actually intend for it to be the cover of a 2-4 page comic I want to write about an astronaut butler/astronaut valet.

Still, here's the illustration:


Whaddyall think?

New Site

I've worked up a new portfolio website. I still need to purchase a domain for it, but until then, you can see it at http://s.homes.mcad.edu/~sruskin
