Hello everyone!

I'm so excited to finally be a part of the Autumn Society! My name is Brianna Gilmartin and here are just a few pieces to introduce myself. First, my senior thesis (the ELY).

For my ELY I decided to do 4 children's book illustrations. I adapted the Led Zeppelin song "Friends" into a children's book because it gave me room to do pretty much whatever I wanted.

So here are three out of the four Just-So-Stories illustrations for my senior thesis here at Uarts.

How the Rhino Got His Skin
The Elephant's Child
How the Whale Got His Throat

First step through the red double doors.

Hey everyone, earlier today was the 2010 University of the Arts' William H. Ely Senior Illustration Thesis Exhibition. I managed to take a few pictures of the show and I'll be adding them soon, but first, I just wanted to post a panoramic picture I patched together of the front room in Hamilton hall.

Congratulations to all the students who placed in the show and best of luck at portfolio day!

U ARTS ELY PREVIEW '09

Identity Design by Lawrence H. Burns

Please come tomorrow to see the University of the Arts Senior Illustration ELY exhibit. The reception for the show is from 3pm to 5pm, and it is all located at the corner of broad and pine in Hamilton Hall.

This post is both a preview and teaser to the shows 190+ pieces that are showing in the main front galleries and the top and bottom level of the back court yard. I hope the artist shown in the photos below do not mind me taking the photos and posting them the day before this amazing event. I rest assure that if you like the pieces in the preview here, they are 5x better in person, plus there is a lot more works not shown in the photos. Like my pieces.

I will see you there!

ELY 2009

Friends and members of the Autumn Society, yesterday marked the opening of the ELY Exhibition in Hamilton Hall. The reception is this Sunday and I invite everyone to come check out incredible work by a group of talended individuals, featuring a plethora of different illustration styles and there will be finger foods. Hope to see you all there! And if you can't make the reception, the show is up until the 14th of April so CHECK IT OUT!

Through the whole Ely experience, I have come to only really like a cropped in area of one of my Ely's. This is that cropped in area that I enjoy so much.
