Photography (DSLR, Film)
Hello, my name is Cobey Pava(design name, Kingdesignz007). I am a graduate of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and an aspiring Art Director and Movie Poster Designer. My goal is to land a full-time entry-level graphic design position. Over the course of my university journey, I have been required to create all sorts of art ranging from drawings and paintings to typographic posters. I use the Adobe Creative Suite to make all my digital art. The top three applications I use are Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign. I have created content such as photo manipulations, typographic posters, package designs, basic animations, taking and retouching photos, video editing, etc.
The art you see on my Instagram and Twitter consists of art created using Photoshop and After Effects, but you will see a wide range of art I have made here. Twitter is where you can find my interests outside of art. Redbubble is where I sell merchandise ranging from various clothing, posters, household items, and more. Fiverr also hosts any commissions that people may be interested in. Click the icons down below to get directed to the page. Thank you for reading.
Artist Statement
I want my work to help someone in some way. Whether that's to calm them down emotionally or to motivate them to make their own art. Whatever that may be, I want it to be a product of positivity and want people to be able to see themselves living within the worlds in my art. Pastel colors are used to show a tone of softness and comfortableness. I believe when artists make art, they should think about who’s going to be viewing it, so I decided to use a color palette that could be easy on the eyes of all audiences across generations. The computer program I use is called Adobe Photoshop. At first, using it was overwhelming. Today, I am amazed at what I’m able to create today. I want people to look at my art and say, "I can do that too."
