Mandala Creation

Only been about a week since our last posting and just felt the yearning to return and post yet again. This weeks creation is inspired by the cyclical change of the world in which we live. This weeks creation is entitled Rebirth. This mandala is composed of repetitive patterns that unify to create the symbol of the mandala. The center of this piece is a blooming lotus blossom, the symbol of rebirth, and is surrounded by eggs, or the symbol of the stage prior to an awakening or birthing. Interspersed between thees eggs are stokes of waves or the cyclical nature of the universe in which we live tieing all of the elements into a single symbol of rebirth.
This piece can be viewed on our web page at http://www.vorzie.com/html/illustration7.html, and all of our creations can be viewed at http://www.vorzie.com. Hope that you enjoy what we have brought to you, and please return to read and view our other creations. Thanks again!

Hello Everyboby,

This is the first official blog of Vorzie Studios. Here we will keep you posted on the latest pieces produced and the goiings on of the designer, Jay Vorzimer.

Jay has been busy as of late with implementing SEO strategies with some degree of success. The results as they stand at this moment are Google: 14, Yahoo: 5, Bing (MSN): 11. We he at the studio don't think that is too bad, considering that we didn't even place within the first 15 pages of a search for santa rosa graphic design. This feeling of success is tempered with the knowledge that during the submission process, there was a point at which we were placing within the first page of a Google search. But this was probably the result of our initial efforts of search engine optimization.

Moving on, this last 4 months has only produced two pieces. The first piece is titled Eye and Nail, which many have commented on its simularity to the work of Patrick Nagel. Interestingly, that this image was sketched from an actual image and in no way was ever meant to imitate Nagel's work. The second piece produced in one sitting was an assignment meant to extol the vector tools within Photoshop. Granted, that these tools are available within Adobe Photoshop we have found that the tools within Illustrator are better suited for this purpose. Once the actual vecotrs are in place, the tools within Photoshop really shine concerning small nuances such as highlight and Shadow.

More images from Vorzie Studios can be seen at the companies website at http://www.vorzie.com. Please feel free to leave comments, praise, or even criticism as all feedback is welcome. So please check back often, as we plan on updating on a regular basis to keep you abreast of the goings on of Vorzie Studios delivering graphics and web design to the wine country of Sonoma county and Northern California.
