Process Poster

For the creation of this poster, I had to show the process of how I made my Medieval textile. In this Poster I had to add my geometric pattern, pictures included in the geometric pattern, my 10x10 and 30x30 textile, and the pictures included in the textile. My skills have improved dramatically, I had so many obstacles in creating this poster and I over came them all. I have improved in IN Design and my attention to detail.

Resume

This resume was created in IN Design which needed to have an organized, readable layout and include my logo I had created earlier. I decided not to put my logo in the top left hand corner, instead I wanted to use it as the background. To use it as my background I had to enlarge it and lower its capacity so it has a fading effect. I have grown more familiar with the tools IN Design, I can use and create many documents for my future.

Logo

This logo was designed to symbolize me and to be creative in illustrator using different tools that I learned how to use. After creating this and various examples I have grown more experience in Illustrator, IN Design and Photoshop. Illustrator was the newest to me because I have already been introduced to Photoshop and IN Design. In Illustrator I can create different logos and even make my own pattern palette. I am looking forward to learning more in Illustrator.

Sketches

 

 These sketches were done over a variety of weeks. Every time I sketch something it improves my ability to draw and sketch faster. I like to sketch because it's simple and when I sketch I can draw anything I want too. My weakness with sketching is that I erase a lot, and sometime I'd like too sketch something without erasing at all.

Reflection:
These sketches are a collection of my skill and progress of sketching over several weeks. Before you look at these I want to remind you that these sketches are not perfect, they reflect how well I interpreted the assignments. Even though I tried my best, some are a little odd. Each time before I started drawing I would read the assignments, think about what I would draw and interpret them. Some of the assignments were hard but I still tried my best. For my progress, it is a little hard to tell whether I made an improvement or not because some of the sketches in the front of the book are better than some of the ones toward the back. But to me, I think I made a tremendous amount of progress. I learned so much during sketching such as, good strategies for shading, lighting, and what pens and pencils work best. I will take what I've learned in these sketches and incorporate my knowledge into my future project. I hope you enjoy looking at my sketches.

English Medievel Textile

I created a textile from the English Medieval time period. When I think of the medieval times I think of princesses, princes, cupid and love. So for this textile design I wanted to add a princess, prince, cupid and a rose to symbolize their love. I like this because, to me a typical textile is just a pattern not an actual picture or "scene". My knowledge improved not only in Photoshop but in In Design as well.

Geometric Pattern

For this project I had to collect 6 images that reflect a English Medieval time period and distort them so they look unrecognizable. I liked creating this piece because there is no telling what the images looked like before I distorted them, I really made the images unrecognizable. I've used Photoshop before but after I completed this piece, I learned about twice the amount of knowledge that I had already known about Photoshop. My weakness was fitting the pictures in all the little shapes because there are a lot of shapes in this pattern. But creating this piece was really fun and my skills have really improved.
