Midterm 2

This assignment also is related to food, as I incorporated it to where we live, and the places to eat here. I took some logos, some menus, some signs, and some pictures of their food and put it all in one piece. This represents our town in the best way, by representing where the people of Charlottesville meet and interact.

Midterm1

This piece is incorporating the splash effect we learned in the tutorial handout packet. I went to the site it suggested, fotolia.com for images to use. I took a strawberry hanging off the stem, and cut the bottom of the strawberry off. Then, following the tutorial, I added the splash effect to the bottom of the strawberry, making it look like an effect following the strawberry being cut. The only thing I had trouble with was adjusting the splash color from the previous blue to the red of a strawberry. Overall, I am fairly please with how this piece came out.

Summer Collage

This project was inspired from another tutorial I found on how to create a collage. I personalized the project just a little from the tutorial to make it more pleasing to the eye. I used original photos that are all related to summertime to create this.

Opening A Can..


This is a project that I found for myself, which I just learned how to do from a tutorial. The task is to have a closed can, and take the top off and create what the inside of the can should look like. By using the outside dimensions, you can imitate the inside of the can. It is also possible to put things into the can so it looks like it's holding things, but I wanted to leave is empty in order to show the inside I created better.
