Some Changes

Sitting in the back of a car for 3 hours can be pretty monotonous. Why not make it more enjoyable with some art? I used a previous piece, but I tried to add some cool effects. (i.e. textural overlays and new triangles) I would love to hear any suggestions. I posted both pieces below. Thank you.

In class I have been working on some tutorials that were assigned. Nothing finished yet. Here is something that I did the other day to keep you interested. I drew it on paper, then I traced it using the pen tool on Photoshop.

Titanic Hoax in Honor of the 100th Anniversary

I made a piece for the a project in class. The goal was to make an urban legend. I thought that I would make a Titanic urban legend, an alternative ending to the Titanic story. In my parody, the Titanic survives and is arriving in New York City, after rumors of striking an iceberg. I constructed the newspaper from scratch in Photoshop, the articles I found from wikipedia and I edited them a little to be in the present tense. Enjoy.

Give Me Some Action(s)

In class, our assignment was to use Photoshop actions to create two pieces. I tried two different types of actions. For the first one, I used patterns. I used an action to make 1 by 1 checkerboard selections and the three triangle design on the right.

For the second piece I used actions to make patterns. I made an action that made each quadrant on my piece a different color. Then I created and action that changed the opacity and blending mode and delete a region to reveal part of a picture behind the original.

Twin Brothers - Why are they so similar?

WHY ARE THEY SO SIMILAR?

"Twin Brothers"

Step Brothers + Anchorman = ?

I made a piece that mated the two movies Step Brothers and Anchorman together. I'm playing off the fact that Will Ferrell is in both movies. I'll post the finished piece when I get to school tomorrow. What should I call it???
