This is my finished project for the pattern assignment that was due on March 5. My original medium was colored pencils, but since I wanted to add a unique touch to this piece, I decided to take a picture of my artwork and edit it in Photoshop. The three figures were the only elements that I did not use Photoshop to create or alter. The flowers in the center were drawn by hand, then were enhanced by using one of the electronic drawing tablets. The background was created solely using Photoshop. I think this project was successful because of the way the patterns were used to draw attention to the individual body parts of the three figures and the amount of space between the foreground elements and the background were used appropriately to create visual interest. I also think this was successful because of the lack of competition between the foreground and the background. The only thing I think I could do to improve this project would be to make the figures different sizes so that they do not compete for attention.

This is really cool Renee! I'm liking how the background unites all the people together, and the leafy dot things are awesome :)
ReplyDeleteI really like the background on this Renee
ReplyDeleteI like what you did for the background how did you come up with this.
ReplyDeletethe people and the background look almost liquified, like they are in a dreamy part of the universe.
