Canvas Lanscape

This project I was excited for, I thought it was the coolest thing. We had to create a house, a creature, a flower, a cloud, and a sun on Dreamweaver. This was much more complicated than the last project. I started the cloud first because I figured that would be the hardest, the flower was more difficult.  I wanted to keep my landscape peaceful so I made the background a sunset, rather than a clear blue sky. I also created a large ant for my creature, which I thought was cool because it was very unproportional to the house just like the flower was. My idea was to make it an unrealistic world, where the house and the people were tiny living beneath the bugs and trees.

My Self Portrait

I consider my Self Portrait Project to be my most successful one. I had to decide what clothes I was going to wear and what background I wanted to use. I wore a plaid shirt because I knew it would be complicated, but I wanted to challenge myself. I choose to create my own background as a graffiti/splatter painted look with two of my favorite colors that match my skin tone. Using Adobe Illustrator, I picked to mostly use the blab brush to pigment my skin. I then utilized all the different paintbrushes to get the curly texture of my hair down. Overall, this project made me realize I definitely have some green going on within my face and I'm amazed at what this software can do.

Living Landscape

When this assignment was brought to us, I was very skeptical. I had no idea what I wanted to do. However I knew I desired a night scene, so I just started adding, duplicating, and altering. I worked with body curves, hair, tongues, arms, ears, and muscle cells. I felt I needed to get the light and shadow correct, so I spent a lot of time on that too. It turned out very cool and looks sort of real!

Colorization

Image
I found this project pretty interesting. Making a black and white photo have realistic colors in it was a challenge, but also pleasurable. I wanted to keep the photo balanced with certain colors on opposite sides of the picture to complement each other. I also wanted to keep the colors neutral as if the setting was a big city like Boston or New York. I felt the need to add some nature and greenery to the picture because it seemed too industrial to me. So I created tall hedges/trees in the distance. In general this was a cool project to learn from.
