Photomanipulation

Untitled

This is latest graffiti image i did in photoshop. I wasn't sure what to do with this one, but I wanted to make it more humorous then serious, like the boy. I tried to create a design that was interesting enough to the viewer. I didn't take this picture though, I asked a friend if I could use it. Unfortunately he wasn't very pleased with the end result. He thought that there wasn't enough perspective in it. Can't argue with him there.

Monster

This is the first one that I did. A lot more successful then the other. The idea was so natural, I think that's why it came out so well. It got me the most views on deviantart.com 123 http://ravaggio220.deviantart.com/art/Monsters-Gotta-Eat-Too-131358040 Again I didn't take the photo I just changed it. The photographer loved it, I'm so glad. I wish I could do more but finding inspiring photos that your allowed to use is hard to come by.

Well that's it for now. I really need to upload more though, wish I wasn't so lazy. Night Night

Interior

This was a piece I did again for my Design l. He was probably my favorite professor that I've had at Towson so far, Jim Condron. Anyway, the purpose for this assignment was to create an environment that had a meaning behind it. I chose my dorm room, only because that was really the only environment that I had at hand. I used my bed and my desk.

To me those are the only things that I need. A place to sleep and a place to work. We had to do use complimentary colors and analogous colors. I chose blue and orange and green, red-violet, and red-orange. The bed and the desk were the compliments and the wrest of the environment were the analogous.

My favorite part is the lamp.

A Dream Differed

So I had to interpret a piece of literature for a project in my Design l class and I chose Langston Hughes A Dream Differed . I know the fact that I took this deep meaningful poem that is suppose to inspire and invoke pride and all that jazz but I put a playful spin on it because thats more my style. I did this on watercolor paper with Prisma Color Markers, Sharpies, and paint pens. I really like the end result and this is the first time I had done anything with markers. Now I cant get enough of them.

So since I haven't done a very good job of keeping this up to date I'm going to add 1 piece a day until I'm all caught up with what I currently working on. Here's the first.

Drawing l Final

The objective of this assignment was to incorporate yourself into an environment. I chose to show my self creating the environment like a graffiti artist. It was done on 18x24 paper and I used graphite and india ink. The parts done in graphite were like the skeleton of the buildings, and the inked part were the finished environment.

All of the figures are me. I am the creator of my own environment.

I Wish I Was More Like You

So I just took a look at one of my very good friends blog and I can't get over how much she's done in such a short amount of time. I'm very jealous. She's so niffty, and organized. Not at all like me. I wish I could just sit down and organize my life, but O well guess it just wasn't meant to be.

Great Job Catherine.

back to work now working on something new. New Year New Me.

Better Quality Image.
