Brushes Tutorial

Abstract Brush

Medium: Photoshop

In this tutorial we learned how to add brushed in Photoshop and how to change brushes color, size, and movement.  I love this artwork.  I think it is more abstract than I am used to but I see the emotion and thrill in this type of art once I created it.  The one problem I ran into was remembering to download brushes from Brusheezy instead of just images.  I did not click on the brushes tab and ran into obvious problems when trying to download the "brushes" into Photoshop.  I enjoyed this lesson and look forward to using it in future projects.

I enjoyed this project but if I were to do it again I would choose objects that went with the dolphins movements and left some white space.  I think that my dolphin has too much, and while more is more, the eye has no place to rest.  I enjoyed this project and working with Photoshop again.

Medium: Illustrator

Through this project I learned to love Illustrator.  Once you get used to the differences from Photoshop and Illustrator, you can easily learn and operate Illustrator.  I love the color scheme but I would like to learn how to create my own.  My favorite colors are salmon, aqua blue, and teal.  I kept my color scheme limited to salmon and purple to create unity.  I love this project and love using my new skills to portray myself.

I am more than proud of my sister for being named the CAA Rookie of the Year.  This is a huge accomplishment and I am so proud of hte hard work she put forth the achieve her goals and receive this award.  I love her and she has always been my role model. I know that swimming for Towson and having her team training and cheering beside her drives her love for swimming. I made a photo to represent this. LETS GO TOWSON TIGERS!!

My symbol was a bucket and shovel at the beach.  I am more than ready for summer and the beach!! The warm weather here recently has got me summer shopping and beach resort scoping.  I love the illustrator tools now and am learning so many new ways to change vector based images.

2D Logos

Medium: Illustrator

I found that you can move the gradient by using the gradient tool in the left tool bar.  I enjoy this program now.  It doesn't allow the creativity that I enjoy most like Photoshop but I still love creating 3D and 2D figures.

Medium: Illustrater

The only problem I ran into on this assignment was I could not change the location of the center when using hte gradient tool.  I will have to find out how to get the bar to appear so I can work with it.  I like this and I never knew how easy it was to create a simple, striking 3D logo.  I am slowly beginning to like illustrater.
