Tag Brush

 


    My tag brush contains the logo I made in Illustrator. The logo symbolizes me as a person so when people see my tag it will communicate to them that the picture was made by me. I first started by creating a boundary around my logo. I did this to imitate the space seen when a person sprays paints a tag in real life. I then added a spray effect, a scratch effect, and a negative light effect. 

    These effects added dimension and roughness to the tag, making it seem realistic. I experimented with different colors of the tag (see above). I would say white or red are my favorite. However, I will change the color of the tag according to how well it fits into the picture I make. My tag not only shows that something is my work but that I am proud of it enough to claim it.

Autoscopy

       I created this image mainly using masking and adjustment layers on Photoshop. The main idea of the project was to take a photo of yourself and transform it into something you never knew of yourselves. The waterfall, sunflowers, brick wall, and water jug images came from unsplash.com. The two space images came from the NASA website. My composition communicates growth despite a bad environment, which is something I learned about myself this year.      I first started by creating a mask of sunflowers and putting them on my head as if they were growing out of it. I then used the displace filter and "multiply" blending style to mask the brick texture onto my face. Most of the images have an adjustment layer on them so that the colors are more vibrant and brighter. The two space images were taken near my birth date from the Hubble Telescope. I added them to my composition as symbols of myself and to give a  fantasy  feel to the image.  ...

Business Cards

Front Back Front Back                                        Front                                                                                         Back      The idea for this project was to make 3 unique personal business cards that incorporated my personal logo and the color palettes from my logo project. I made my cards using the Indesign software where I made a 3.5 by 2-inch document with 0.25-inch margins and an 0.125-inch bleed. The main tools I used are the pen and type tool. I used the pen tool to make the designs on the back of my cards and the type tool to print my name and a contact inf...

Portfolio

      The final project was to make a portfolio showcasing all the projects I made during the semester. I made this portfolio using InDesign. I had initially sketched a completely different cover, but as I began working I came up with a new cover idea. The idea for the cover was inspired by the Creation of Adam by Michelangelo.  The painting of the Creation of Adam depicts an image of God stretching out his finger to give Adam a spark of life. However, in my version, I am reaching out to touch the mouse I used to make the projects this semester. I made the image using Illustrator. I then added a cloudy background to match the heavenly scene within the original artwork.      The next two pages welcome and introduce me to the reader. I used the colors within the portrait of myself to color the font on the welcome page and the two squares on the corners of my portrait. The index pages utilize the cloudy sky background and layout the sections according to ...
