Hi! Welcome to FMX 210 blog. Warning I have little to no idea what I'm doing but I think that makes it as fun as it is frustrating. Enjoy and be nice :))
As my final blog post, I am publishing a complete portfolio. This is a collection of all my works from FMX 210. I will always look back on my time in this class as a time of self-discovery and self-improvement. I became more tenacious, patient, and better at problem-solving. The portfolio still incorporates fun yet subtle colors that I think incorporate into all of my pieces well. The shapes in the background of each page were designed to draw the viewer's eye to the work. At first, I was concerned that I'd make it too busy, but I'm happy with the way that I was able to maintain my colors and focus on the works being showcased. Throughout the semester, I have been immensely inspired by color, words, and my past relationships. I am very passionate about taking those inspirations with me to future projects I intend to complete outside of this class with the new skills I have obtained It was a difficult semester, with COVID-19 preve...
Final Product Layers Autoscopy is the images of one's own body or one's face within space, either from an internal point of view, as in a mirror, or from an external point of view. I chose for mine to be an external point of view of what I am striving for. I recently came to the conclusion that I have a hard time relaxing, which is new because I used to be a really laid-back person. Since starting college though I've held myself to a much higher standard and am told I am too hard on myself. This may be because I am in such a close-knit community where I can easily compare so much about myself to others. I recently made a promise to myself to not be so uptight and be nicer to myself and this came from the encouragement of my best friend, Grace, who is the other person in my autoscopy. As a matter of fact, this past Saturday she and I got matching tattoos of the smiley face (as pictured above). Mostly because that is the dorm we lived in freshman year when we met, Smiley H...
This is a photo of my brother and me. I enjoyed this project because I was able to explore photoshop so much more and I learned how to do things that I may even use for my own creations outside of the classroom. I feel if I had a different picture I could have done something similar to Andy Warhol's Marilyn Monroe portrait, especially with the Double Split Complementary palette. The vivid colors give it a pop art feel. The first attempt is the bottom image and I used muted colors which make it seem almost unintentional. For each of the three versions, my favorite element to color was my romper because I think against the black stripes the other color stands out and catches the eye. If I were to do this project again I would choose a different image, one with fewer elements, so that the colors could be more vivid and not as transparent. I would also like to incorporate more black elements in the original picture. I know this because I like the way my black purse looks agains...
