ALBUM COVER
 
 
 
 
REFLECTION QUESTIONS
 
 
 

   The strongest area of my work would be the placing of all the different objects. Now when looking at it you wont focus on just one thing you'll go around and look at all the things within the picture. I can improve on blending the picture better so it looks more smooth and not as cluttered. I can work on improving this by using more blend modes, filters, and using the blur tool.
    The easiest part of this activity would be choosing the pictures to use. This came to be easy  because I had an idea of what wanted to use. the most difficult part would be the place of the different things and having them not look pasted on. This was difficult because it was hard to find a way for them to all flow, work together, and blend.
     The mediums and tools I used are the different move tools, warp, blend, smudge , paint tool,filters, saturation, gradient, and the eyedropper. The smudge, filter, and saturation were used to help blend all the pictures. The  warp, move tools , and selection tools were used in helping with placement. The paint tool and gradient were used to add color and shadows. I demonstrated the objective by putting my two favorite artist in the picture around things I like to help design an album cover for if they were to do a song together. If I were to do this project again I'd try to bend the pictures more and more things to it so it could be more interesting.

The Best Letter Is...


Completed the letter


Reflection Questions

The strongest areas of my art are the use of shadows and layers. The shadows on the sides created more light towards the center making the viewer look in that direction. The use of layers help make the lower case letters look like they're fading and blending into the background. I can improve on composition and using more of the given space. To improve on composition I could put an object in different positions and see what's best for the final look of the picture. I could work on using the space by seeing my hat can be added or needed to fill the area.  The easiest part of this activity would have been choosing the letter and colors. Choosing what letter to use was easy because I knew wanted to use a letter that was part of my name. Deciding on what colors to use was easy because I like using different shades of red and pink. The most difficult part would be deciding on the position and composition of the letters. The position of the letters became hard because I different ideas I where I wanted them.  Mediums used in this activity are the gradient tool, layers, font and composition. I used the gradient tool on all four of the sides to draw more attention to the center. The font was used to style the letters. Layers were used to give the illusion that the smaller letters were fading into the background. I demonstrated the objective by creating an interesting way to show the letter F. If I were to do this activity again I'd add more of the letter in different fonts, change the composition and use more of the space.
