Still Life


This was one of my still lifes that I could never get to upload and I finally got it to pull up so I could covert it to a jpeg file. Anyways this was a shot I took of just the pitcher and I wanted to make it look like you could see through it.I used some of the other objects at the right of it to try and bring the piece out a little more...I had a tuff time doing this one..

Final Project (Good vs. Evil)




My whole idea and concept for this project was to incorporate in some way or fashion the idea of a left handed hitter vs. a right handed hitter. When we were younger we used to think of the opposite person hitting against us, right handed or left, was the good or evil pertaining to what side of the plate you hit from. So having said that I used the representation of two hitters, right and left, and put them facing each other with the focal point a baseball and the words Good vs. Evil in the middle.

Emotional Word


For my emotional word I had a lot of ideas that I came up with before deciding on using the word Fury. I thought the representation of the word would be the best one to use since I could incorporate the flames and red with the word. I was very pleased how this piece turned out and had a lot of fun drawing the flames for the design.

Asymmetry


The asymmetrical design was based off the same concept as the symmetrical coin design. This time the coins are falling into one focal group at the bottom of the page to the left. The coins represent a concept of a tangible item which can be seen falling into one larger group which i liked alot.

Symmetry


The coin idea was the first thing that came to my head when I was trying to find a concept for the symmetrical design. The design shows how the coins are lined up in the center of the page and continually falling from the center group at the top of the page. I had fun putting this piece together!

Structure Modification


For the structure modification I chose to revisit the piece I did for the ambiguous shape. I decided that I was going to basically use the same feel of the piece but rearrange how the raindrops were falling from the sky. By putting all the raindrops going to one side it was easier to create an asymmetrical feel to the piece. I was happy how it turned out because it showed the same feel of an ambiguous piece but at the same time gave it new direction with how the storm was coming down.

Ambiguous


For This project I decided to use a rain drop feel.The ambiguous shapes were easy to use because the feel of the clouds and the raindrops themselves are typically ambiguous shapes.I liked the way it turned out because it kind of had a natural feel to it like you were looking at raindrops falling from the sky.
