Photo Show

This is the picture i wanted to turn in for the photo-show. This was actually one of my favorite pictures that i ever printed but i never got the chance to actually upload it for anything. What i like about this picture is that it makes me wonder what she was thinking about. Also you can also kind of the see the rule of 3 because the apple is in the front she is in the middle and the tree is in the back.

EPIC PICTURE

For this project i tried doing something i had never done. i went completely different on this project by adding a red background and making this entire picture red. i really enjoyed doing this project because i did something new and fresh. 

Maya Angelou Quote

I really enjoyed this particular project. this project allowed me to use some pictures that i had been wanting to use but i hadn't had the opportunity to use. i tried to keep the colors on this picture cool and simple so it could help reflect of the quote. i really enjoyed and had fun being creative with all the different brushes. i am happy with my overall project and look forward to doing more of these types of projects.

Winter...Is cold

When i was making this picture i wasn't really sure with what brushes to use. i however found some winterish looking brushes and i ended up finding some on brusheezy.com. i used them on my picture and i like how it looks. 

Ericka Photoshop Brushes

This Project was a continuation of the original photoshop project that we finished the past week before Spring Break. In this project we had to incorporate brushes into our work.

I chose to use splatter type brushes because I really liked how it was presented to me when I first saw it on the brush website.

I chose to make the Brush color orange because I wanted it to match with her scarf. I also chose to use Black splashes because I 

wanted to keep the color balanced.

Photoshop Smoothing Face Project

On this project we had to do portraits of a student in our class. I chose to use Ericka for this photo-shoot because I had been looking forward to working with her and had not had the pleasure of working with her. This project was composed of taking a portrait picture and smoothing out the texture of her skin. It was a fairly simple project and I enjoyed doing it. My favorite part of the project was the photoshopping because I had not used it too much. I look forward to doing another project like this in the near future. 

Elements and Principles of Design

 In this assignment I covered the elements and principles of design. The first thing I did was do some research on both the elements and principles of design to see which one suited me better. I decided to do the elements of design instead because the idea of lines and texture and space caught my attention more. I used a picture of ducks that I took at balboa park to show texture because you can see the contrast of texture between the ducks and the water which I thought looked pretty obvious. I used the the picture of spray paint because it has a lot of color in the picture it shows many different types of colors al in one scattered spot which I liked a lot. For line and space I used a picture that I took at La Jolla beach. I think that this picture shows line because of the light coming through the clouds which I think gives it a sense of divinity. This picture also shows space because of the open area given off by the sky and the ocean.
