Canvas Exercise

The first assignment we had in Art 210 was the "Canvas Exercise". This assignment required the use of Dreamweaver, which I had never experienced before. We were told to create two separate canvases. Honestly, I was not very creative while I was assembling the assignment. I found Dreamweaver to be very difficult to use. I tried my best to follow the rules, but I didn't really care about how good the assignment turned out. However, I think its cool how the first canvas is in cool tones, and the second canvas is in red tones.

Colorization

For this assignment, we had to make a black and white picture in color. I think I did a really good job with the floor the women, with the orange jacket is standing. I wanted this to look realistic. I used colors I think would be where I put them. I made the guys jacket tan because I didn't want it to be black. When I saw the middle girl was in Miami, I decided to use the University of Miami's color. I Like how I made the girl in the back match her shoes to her jacket.

Calligram

The Calligram assignment was very cool. We had to recreate an image of ourselves, using words from a letter our future selves wrote to our current selves. The entire idea is super fun. Anyways, this was the first assignment we really got to be creative with. I wanted mine to look very realistic. Initially, I had many places where I was going to put the letters, however the process is very time consuming. I decided to put the letters in a larger space. I completely dis formed the letters, so that they were unrecognizable. The idea of distortion worked in my favor, I think it looks relatively real (especially my eyes). I chose a blue background because it is my favorite color. The reason I made my hair readable is because I wanted to show that the colors used were still words, even though they don't look like it.

Cut and paste

I loved this assignment. We were told to cut out images of real things, and to put them on a canvas. Nothing that wasn't alive was to be shown. First I picked the old man meme, because it is one of my favorite memes. I put him in the background to be sure that there was no blank space. The I put other viral pictures like Rebeca Black, Kim Kardashian crying, and Justin Bieber's mug shot. Then I put pictures of my favorite celebrities, excluding Trump. I only put trump because I couldn't think of anyone else.
