Deconstruction

                                               

For my deconstructive image I chose one that was previously taken by me


This was my initial image that I took last year, I felt that it could execute the destructive feel.

I started with picking my textures online!


This is an example of the creases I was going to use as a reference for my piece


My first step was to rough up the edges, I did this by masking a rough edged piece of paper onto the image, I then went ahead and added some holes as well

Using the paintbrush tool, I went ahead and added some value to create some folds

I then decided to turn the image black and white for a more vintage feel

The image itself was too clean in my opinion so I went ahead and added grain, texture, and some scratches

The holes looked a little wonky as well, so I decided to add some burn marks over the image

Finally, I felt the piece needed some color so I added some ink blotches to finish it up



I then put a side by side and it was complete!

I am a bit introverted and love to create things, it can really be anything I just enjoy to have things that I made, even if they're terrible. I also have never been to Tampa before, so it's my first time ever being here or even on this campus, so I hope the remainder of the year is a little less confusing. I feel the rest of the semester will be very interesting and complex with COVID and all but still enjoyable.      I expect to...

Calligram

Image
 This is my very first time using Illustrator so I am very excited! I began with my 3 sketches... Out of the 3 sketches I thought the first one was the most interesting This was the image I went off of for the sketch and calligram  Envelope distort was my go to for majority of this piece  I used that process for the facial features I even started building the face with primarily the Envelope Distort with Top image I also used gradient to show all the values in the face For the hair I tried a couple methods but ended up just sticking to Type on Path, I added more features as well continuing Envelope Distort and Gradient  Eventually it all came together, I even added some more bubbles to fill up the negative space.
