POSTER


ARTIST STATEMENT: For my poster, I selected a self-portrait of me at the beach, my favorite place on earth. Not only is our world dying but so is our oceans. Garbage and oils and chemicals flood our waters, destroying sea life and their homes. I chose to keep the photo black and white and color the different parts of the oceans blue to people can see the emphasis on the waters. 

                  For the animated look, I placed the image on illustrator and image traced it. Moving from black and white I switched to grey and white and then adjusted everything from there. Trace without lines allowed me to get in every little detail from the water.

P5 Mesh

Image
ARTIST STATEMENT: For my new gradient mesh project, I chose to recreate pink daisy's. Daisy's are my favorite flowers, and normally white I chose the color pink so when creating the mesh, it gives the flower a 3D look. making it look real. I created two types of petals, one having the rows and three columns while the other had 4 rows and three columns. I used the same colors on each point but scattered them differently among the two petals. I wanted to give variety to the flower so each petal didn't look identical to one another. There was no particular placement in which petal went where. I wanted them scattered to look more natural.

ARTIST STATEMENT: This assignment was something I was really looking forward to altering an image and make it look like a different dimension. The original photo is a selfie of my best friend an I at a music festival, we both have scarves and masks covering our face. The color reflecting off our faces is emphasized by the lights but what draws me to this picture is our big and beautiful brown eyes.     For this project, I created masks around our scarves and eyes. I then put a black and white optical illusion replacing the deleted images so it contrasts well off the colored image. The image itself I wanted to make more bright and bold so I toyed around with the vibrancy and saturation. As well as placing a photo filter of purple on the image to strengthen the colors of the pink and blues. I added text in an American Typewriter font that reads, "It's all in your HEAD." I chose to write a quote there so you can imagine that what you're seeing is all in your head. ...

POEM

Artist Statement: For this project I wanted to use my favorite poem, and that's from the film, The !0 Things I Hate About You. The main female lead, Morgan, read this poem to Heather Ledger's character. I felt that his face and emotion would be the perfect picture for this project  POEM:   I hate the way you talk to me And the way you cut your hair I hate the way you drive my car I hate it when you stare I hate your big dumb combat boots And the way you read my mind I hate you so much, that it makes me sick And even makes me rhyme I hate the way you're always right I hate it when you lie I hate it when you make me laugh Even worse when you make me cry I hate it when you not around And the fact that you didn't call But mostly I hate the way I don't hate you Not even close Not even a little bit Not even at all
