Logo project

Artist Statement: This is my logo for the illustrator project. I really liked the color scheme here and the way the boxes and different parts of the logo are in different depths. This creates at least in my eye more depth to the logo. The three boxes mixed around the upside down V was something I liked adding because the three boxes form their own uncompleted triangle. for the criss crossing 'swords' and the diamond shield in the middle I took inspiration from old medieval insignia and shields to try and add this to my logo as well. I liked this project because We could work in a creative space to create something we thought expressed ourselves. Here are some simpler forms of the design

tag brush

artist statement

Artist Statement: For this assignment, we were tasked with creating a unique tag brush in photoshop using the logo we created in illustrator. By Layering different paint blotch images and paint spray images over a uniquely cut out section of my logo the final product was created. I'd like to point out I used this greyish blue to create this export but the tag brush can be any color I decide. This was one of the cooler aspects of this project because I can customize the brush to be what I need for each project depending on the colors I've already used.

Portfolio

Portfolio Blog.

Artist Statement: 

First, I just wanted to say that the slides of the portfolio uploaded in a different order and blogger wouldn't let me adjust the order. It is crazy that we are at the end of the semester already. While it was a rough one with all that has been going on I was still impressed with how far I have come as an artist. Compiling all my work throughout the semester made me realize how much I had accomplished and improved. I enjoyed making the portfolio and it wasn't as hard as I thought it was going to be once I set up my layers in my template. From there it was keeping a consistent style and feel throughout. I am glad I got to take this class and am appreciative for what I was able to learn under the circumstances.
