Mixed Media Third Assignment

I decided for this assignment to draw again. I have not nor do I draw a lot anymore since I mainly use my phone or computer for digital images. Although I have always liked cupcakes and bows and thought okay I can draw something and then scan it into the computer and make the drawing a digital image. Thus using two different medias. I made sure to upload the original image followed by two semi different versions I created from my drawing. I added one effect with a slight swirl and I just enjoyed how it came out, I think because the way the frosting looks.

I first started with just making the frosting pink, but then I thought it would look good if the whole image was pink with the hints of black and make it more of a painting. From that point it was just playing around with filters, hue/saturation, curves and exposer.

Mixed Media Forth Assignment

I wanted to do something different for this assignment from my previous work. I came across an old sketch I had done just by doodling really and I was like hmm I can scan this into Adobe Photo Shop and make it come to life. I dismissed some of the features and details while I was tracing over the pencil lines with the paint brush tool. I did two versions after I colored certain areas in with a pink tint. This is the sketch (Original Image)

The idea of nail polish came to me when my mother and I were talking about how people think that are nails were salon done, when we just paint them ourselves, I suppose we really nice nails, but it gave me the idea for this ad. I wanted to be creative with the name, so I went with my trademark Bowdacious and built from there. As I read in the books, I new I did not want to use many different fonts, so I stuck with a total of three. Obviously you have Bowdacious in the standout font that draws you in and is a font I most classify with. I chose a nice accent font that is in the same family with being pretty, but doesnt clash with the main title. I knew I needed one more font to break up the ad, so I chose a little bit of bolder font and made it white. My focus was more on the text rather then the images themselves, but you need images in an ad to draw someone in to buying a product. The dripping of nail polish coming down from the top of the page implies that is what was used to write...

Image & Text in Visual Arts Second Assignment

I am super pleased with this logo. Again starting from my main base of the mannequin head and using her in a different way, I wanted to create a graphic vector image. A logo, but not a simple black and white that you see all the time. This was actually very difficult for me because I have never done anything like this before. Well I have tried but they always came out wrong and not what I really envisioned. I even posted this on my Instagram because I was so pleased with it. I wanted to just have a simple white background because I was thinking of the accent color font I wanted to use example for the photo-manipulations. I played with the curves of the base mannequin to get rid of the texture and detail of the original image, so it was just white. Although you could not just simply erase it out because I wanted to keep some of the texture from the neck and hair. I applied a cutout filter since it seems to be my favorite, followed by a brush tool, opacity low and a pink glow...
