Gallery Pics

When walking around i took some pictures of art pieces i liked. I mainly took the of illustrations projects because i really like comics. I chose though i thought were drawn really well or had some aspect that drew we towards them. I like darker pictures so the animal skulls were really my thing, thought the city scene was cool to.






Finnal Day

The END has come. The final day of pre-collage we set up our pictures and posters. It took about 2 hours, but it looked really cool when we finished. The dresses were set up in one room with most of the posters; The other room had our paintings. When the show started at 2 i went around looking at others work. I liked the illustrations comics and the dresses and work other fashion classes made. I had a great time a Parsons and thank all those who helped and taught me.

Magazine Pics

I posted some of the pages of the magazine i made. I wrote about the project and location i used for it. How the color swatches came from the location and how it all translated into the dress.


I also made a page about the accessory and how the wire design came from the wire fencing at our location. 



Some pages are just of pictures taken of the dress that i liked. Different angles and locations.


 

Work DAY

Sooooooo...tiring. Today we had to Finnish our magazine portfolios and print. i finished my magazine by 12 which was pretty early; the bad part was trying to print. First my poster wasn't printing so i struggled with that until it finally worked at about 2:30 (which isn't to bad). My portfolio on the other hand kept having problems and i couldn't get it to print till 5:00. it was torture, i wanted to smash the computer a couple times due to my frustration. I had finished my projects but i had to wait on the printer and struggle to get it to work.
I did learn how to work photo shop, and the printer though. I may not have enjoyed this last computer section but it was interesting to learn about and use.

Gouache or Photo


Finally finished my painting. It's of my dress, took forever. I basically did stippling with the paint for the dress. The rest of the painting is like y usual work. I figured stippling would create the best effect and it's easier to blend paint colors naturally using it; especially when using gouache(doesn't blend well). I think my piece turned out really well and i happy with it.

COVER

In computer class today i started working on my portfolio magazine. We mainly focused on the cover and fonts. I finished imputing all the necessary pics but i still cant find a good font or think of an elegant title. I'm not good at naming so it's kind of frustrating. (still hate the computer!)

On a more positive note i finished my art homework and i'm happy with the result. Its a silhouette piece but painted using 3 different colors but with similar tones (i think?). I chose the colors pink, purple, and blue.




COMPUTER

Portfolio design

yesterday, i learned The basics of the computer program needed for making my portfolio peace. Easy to say it was the most tiring and difficult coerce. I'm still having trouble with it and would prefer power point. We learned how to past pictures using it. Link things and set up the pages properly. After the lesson i can clearly state i a no good with computers.

Dress Painting

In class i also started painting my groups garment. We put our clothes on a model and painted it with a close of our pics behind it. The photo and unfinished peace are bellow. I will post the finished painting when its done.
