POSTER FOR A CAUSE

The project this week was to create a poster for a cause without the uses of black and white. This project was very fun. The colors I chose to work with were orange and blue. I used many different values of orange ranging from dark orange to a pale yellow for the main portion of the poster. I used the blues to make the text and image stand out. I used the lighter value of orange/yellow as a light at the end on the tunnel kind of thing.   
I had a hard time starting this project and I was really stuck on the idea of using orange. I think it had to do with the wonderful sunshine we have been blessed will.

COLOR

Our project this week was to make a color wheel and work with hue. I made my color wheel in Illustrator and found this to be a very interesting project. It helped me to understand color better and the mixing of color.

VALUE

Self Portrait

This week’s project was to make a self portrait collage made from materials collected for week 10. This project was quite a challenge for me. I decided to make this collage with Photoshop and many times I found myself thinking that I wish I had done this the traditional way. I spent hours on this and easily could have spent more on it but time is up. You could really fine tune something like this if you have the time. Self portraits are not easy to do but this was a great experience.

ILLUSTION OF SPACE AND MOTION

Illusion of space



Exaggerated Size

http://www.stinkyjournalism.org/latest-journalism-news-updates-45.php

This image is using exaggerated size to make the man appear to be larger than the building. The building is far away in the background and the man is very close to the photographer.



One Point Perspective

This image uses a one point perspective and the posision of the photographer creates the feeling of a very large space. You can tell that the linear perspective starts straight ahead as I have pointed out.

aerial perspective

This piece is an example of aerial perspective it uses color or value to show depth. The colors in the background are lighter and grayish. The rocks in the mid ground are no taller than the ones in the background but the coloring suggests that they are closer. There is use of size in this piece with the close up of the angel in the right bottom corner.



Illusion of Motion

Relative Stillness

http://tucsoncitizen.com/morgue/tag/calendar-movies/page/77/

This art piece is an example of relative stillness. The piece looks like a photograph shot at high speed while the penguins are filing through the air. With the specks of snow flying around the penguins and the fact that they are in the air implies that they are in motion. This piece also uses sizing to imply that each penguin is at a different distance away.



Cropped Figures

http://www.visumation.com/blog/?tag=illusion-of-motion

This image is an example of a cropped figure. This image uses repetition and cropping to create the feeling of movement. This image also give the feeling of relative stillness in the way it just looks like it is hanging there in the sky.





Multiple Image

http://www.diagonalthoughts.com/?p=455

This image is an example of multiple images we see one figure in many overlapping poses. This image looks like the figure is standing and moves into a lying down position or vice versa. This creates the impression of movement.  



PATTERN AND TEXTURE

Here are my 15 pattern and texture pieces I have chosen. I am now thinking that I need something with more white in it. I chose many different fabrics, white birch bark, tin foil, doily, and a filter. I was fun trying to come up with different items that had pattern or texture. 

This is my value scale created with the pattern and texture items I chose.

Shape and Valume

This weeks lesson was about shape and valume. The project due is a black and white image with the negative shape being black and possitive being white. This was a fun project and really gets you thinking about shape.
