Assignment #
In this project, our assignment was to create 3-4 icons that 
were simple and to the point. We were to choose from
 a list of categories and then design an icon representing a category. In this assignment I learned to use the shape tools in Illustrator as well as the line tool. I explored my creativity and learned how the simplicity of a design can speak a message. 




Assignment #2 


                                                                                In this assignment we were required to use the pen too to create texture in the form of a grid of vector graphics. We used value and texture with just a plain black and white color scheme. This project showed me that creating texture can make your design look better and have depth and feeling to it. This also taught me that texture requires a lot of patience and attention to detail.











Assignment #3
This assignment we used the principles of color the schemes to create a color wheel. We were required to choose two corresponding
 objects to use in the design of the color wheel. Over all i enjoyed this project, 
it was easy, simple and fun to 
create our own colors. 
























Assignment # 4 
 In this assignment we were required to create self portraits using a specific artist's type of work. We mimicked Andrew Warhol's work and used various color schemes such as complementary, split complementary, triadic and monochromatic  . This project was fun and easy. 


























Assignment #5


                                                                                    In this assignment we were required to create a picture made up of many different smaller pictures. It is called a picture graph or collage. This project was very tidies and time consuming. It was not one of my favorites. 




























Assignment #6
In this project we used different layer masks to create our own version of Stephen Kronigers work. We made our own story book pages and had to be very "out of the box" in this project. I enjoyed this assignment.  


















Assignment  #7  

In this assignment we were required to use 
photoshop and add our selves into an already 
existing picture of celebrities. I liked 
creating this because 
we got to use a picture of ourselves 
and it looks realistic! 











Assignment #11
In this assignment we used photoshop to mix words with a picture and a texture. We picked a poem or song and a picture that we thought went with it. We used layer options to "mesh" them together (the texture, picture, and words). My poem was A Road Not Taken by Robert Frost!


Assignment # 12
In this assignment we were required to create an alphabet made out of different elements or objects that looked like the letters. We took pictures of all the letters then created a collage in Photoshop. I enjoyed this project because we had a lot of time to finish. 


  

























Assignment # 13
In this assignment we used the idea of exquisite corpse, and we did a group project. We each were assigned a part of the body and were not allowed to look at anybody else's. We had to rely on formal balance in order for all of our parts to look good. Everybody's turned out really funny!

Assignment # 14
For this project we were assigned a career and we had to make a career poster. We had to have a description of the career and a graphic that illustrates that career. I used lorem ipsum coming out of the mouth because that is a general term that every graphic designer knows, and my description pretty much sums up the whole career. I really enjoyed this project and I like how mine turned out.

Assignment # 17
This assignment was to make a combination mark logo for one of 4 companies. I chose Three Tree Landscape. I used illustrator to create the logo. We were required to use only pantone colors and only 2 colors. I chose 2 green colors. I enjoyed this project, it was easy and fast.
