BW to Color

 




Artist Statement:
For my black and white to color photoshop project I decided to use three different types of color schemes; Square, Triad, and Analogous. I really like pinkish-purple colors and I think my favorite scheme in this project was probably the analogous. I was able to utilize the quick selection tool to outline multiple sections of my image including my shirt, shorts, hair, the wall behind me, the reflection on the water, the lights, and as an added bonus, the moon! Having a white shirt on definitely helped the colors on my shirt pop a bit more than the rest of the image since it was taken at night time. Overall, I really enjoyed working on this project and I think photoshop is my new favorite software that we've used so far!

Vectors - Logo Project

  Hi Everyone! For my personal logo project I wanted to create something that was not only creative, but had multiple elements inside of it. Looking at some of my original sketches, I was sticking to things I knew and loved, for example, music, the trumpet, my favorite sport which is volleyball, and my Irish heritage. However, I thought about the deep connection I have to my home city of Providence, RI and decided to start there. My logo features an outline of the Providence skyline with my initials E and M between the buildings, as well as a clover in the middle symbolizing my heritage. Something about this logo felt special to me, as it encompasses a strong sense of home while also bringing in aspects of where my family originates from. I thought bringing a few of the buildings into the foreground would help my initials pop more and make them more noticeable. For my final 3 logo's I used some great brand color combos, featuring a red and black, as well as a baby blue and pastel g...

Tag Brush

  Artists Statement: Tag Brush was a very fun and creative assignment to work on. I was able to experiment with the various layers available to use and see what looked best with my logo. While complex, this assignment gave me great knowledge as to how to create a brush in Photoshop. Above is my basic B/W brush, and then to the left are my colorized ones. This brush worked great when adding my own personal touch to further assignments, almost like an artists signature. I'll definitely be using the skills I learned in this section for future projects and brush creations!

Business Cards

Artists Statement: This was my very first time working in InDesign and while its similar to other softwares we've used in class this semester, it also has its differences. My three logos features various different color schemes which I was able to coordinate with the business card colors. I feel as though business cards should be kept simple and not overcomplicated to keep focus on the logo and personal business information. On the front of the cards I included my logo and on some I included elements like diamonds and circles. On the back of the cards I included the same elements as the front but added in my business information. If I was to choose one card to actually use for a business I would choose the black and red color scheme because I think those colors go great together and looks the cleanest. Overall this project was super fun and allowed me to be very creative with my card designs!
