Mid Term


  • We had to make a semi-abstract composition using new and old images and combining as many different tools as possible.
  • I tried to make a center focus of images I made or old images while desauturating them to show that they are old. I then used modern abstract art images to establish a frame of color.
  • I made this art in order to explain my inspiration as alot of my work including this one is inspired by modern graphic abstract art or 3d abstract art.
  • I'm pleased with the finished product and their is nothing I feel I need to add or should have added at this time.

Thanksgiving Card

  • We were to make a greeting card.
  • I was inspired by an autumn depiction which encouraged me to add thanksgiving images and then I used them together and blended.
  • I really like the ending piece and there is nothing I feel the need to add at this time.

Art Inspiration 2

                Although its a photograph captured through the use of a filter this piece of art really inspires me because it makes the person who is viewing think and admire the beauty captured. This picture makes me want to create art that is also as vast and as incredible. I want the person looking at my work to stop and stare for a little bit and get lost in thought. I need to capture a much more vast approach to my art. This is how this picture has inspired me.

Art Inspiration


                   There is so much going on in this beautiful picture called Mid-day Migration by John Newsom. The vivid colors all blend together to really make an amazing dreamlike garden scene. This picture truly inspires me to find ways to blend as many colors as I can into my images to really make them pop. Now that I've seen this painting I can't wait to find my own style of blending colors in order to make a beautiful piece of art.

Hamlet


  • We were too make a comic strip using the abilities we are given in photoshop.
  • I tried to make a comic that sort of revolves around a pun, this is what I came up with.
  • I kind of like the ending product, there are some mistakes I made while drawing the pig but I guess for the amount of time I had left to work on it I'm satisfied.
  • A pun I came up with inspired me while making this comic strip.
  • I wish I had more time to add finishing touches and make all the images blend together more thoroughly.

Filtered Self-Portraits


  • Create a 3 x 3 grid of self-portraits with different filters applied to them.
  • I tried to make as many variations to each image that I could and then add some effects to the entire grid as a whole.
  • The stylize filters inspired a lot of my work.
  • I am very satisfied with is because overall it seems to blend very well.
  • There is nothing I wish to add to it at this time.
