Assignment # 13

For this assignment we had to use 3D paint to paint a 3d image. It was not to hard. I really enjoyed and feel like this is program is something I should really learn.

Assignment # 12 Communication Cards

For this assignment we had to make communication cards for people with very limited verbal skills and/or do not know English. This cards will be used to help communicate via images what the people want to convey. I was given four phrases that I made into images. It was not to bad but due to many thing in life my time was very limited.

Here are the Phrases:
1. It is time to Shower
2. It is time to go to group
3. It is time for your appointment
4. It is time for you blood draw

I don't think I did to bad.

Assignment # 11Website Template

For this assignment we had to change a website template that will fit our art work. I used this very simple template and added my pictures. It was actually very easy to do but it requires that you think about what artwork you want to showcase.  This template allowed me to easily change texts.

Assignment #9 Brush sets

In this assignment we had to create our on set of brushes in photoshop and illustrator

It was really easy. All you needed to do was draw something save it and add it to the brush tools.

Above you see my set of brushes for photoshop. I made this scribble and this spray paint drip cloud.

I used the brush set on this photo I took of an emergency box on campus. I made it look like someone put graffiti on it.


Here are the brush set that I made in illustrator. I made this swirl and a scatter brush that looks like confetti.

Both sets did not take very long.

There are many tutorials on line that are just on making brushes. I guess the internet is also to learn things other then just going to check my facebook.

Assignment # 10 Online Galleria

Assignment was to create an online gallery to display our art.

Thanks to the help of Marcus we used "Fillzilla" to upload  all the HTML ah stuff.

Assignment 6 Create Uppercase Font


The assignment for this week was to create our own personal font starting with the uppercase letters.

I am fan of fonts that look like it's written by hand. That was the look I was going for.

I used a brush in illustrator that looked like a stroke of a pen.  I ended up using "Type Tool 3" import the letters I created in illustrator.

I think the end product was not to bad. This being my first time ever creating my own font. 

Let's see how lower case will look?

Assignment 1 Video Yuk

I never used flash so this is really awful. Sorry. Enjoy the second of your life being taken away.

The Flambouant Peacock - Assignment 3 Using Wacom Drawing Tablet





The assignment required that we use the electronic drawing tablet, use all washes with no solid color fill.  The topic was our choose.

I used the tablet to do the line drawing of the peacock in Illustrator. I then opened up the line drawing in Photoshop. I created the background in two layers. One layer I got used a brush tool that had a water color effect and covered it with purple water color marks. The second background layer I used the gradiant tool and used a seafoam green and dark pink to cover the layer. I made sure that the purple layer was over the to toned layer.

Then I selected the line drawing and locked the layer. I opened up a new layer and coloring the lines with pinks and a feather textured brush.

I think it looks really cool and it has sort of a very amateur Picasso feel to it.
