This is my propaganda piece and defend your color can be interpreted in anyway that you want. the colors can represent you or they can represent ideas or what ever you think of. I made this piece with the brush tool and the pen tool. I played with the colors and one was blue and the other was red but I changed it to being orange because it fit better.

This is my 2nd portfolio piece and my over all theme is lights just like the last two pieces.

W had to take a foreign artist and make a piece that is similar to theirs and I chose Yusaku Kamekura a Japanese artist and I made this piece with the pen tool and some effects that made it look futuristic. the piece was black and white before I made the outlines with the stroke effect.

These two pieces are me playing around with the pen tool, trying to figure out what to do for my next project. The next project is where we have to make a propaganda poster about an idea. I have three ideas right now and I am trying to figure out which one to do. I was playing around with the pen tool and I drew a simple line and it looked really cool then i added onto it and i thought that the other lines where cool too.

This is my newest piece, we had to find an international artist and make an image based on the artists work. I chose Pete Harrison who is a British graphic designer and he incorporates light into his art work. This piece was made with the pen tool and it took me a long time to get everything to work together and get the glows right. I think that this is my best image so far.

I found this flower in red an changed the colors with the color replacement tool. I was going to make the whole flower multicolored but I stopped at blue and colored the outer part blue and then I added the effect to it and it came out looking like this.

This was a tutorial that I tried to follow a long time ago, I stopped at the making of the colors. This tutorial showed me how to make my own brush and how to apply it. It also taught me how to make pieces of glass look more real. I really liked this tutorial ad I wish that I had finished it.

We had a project where we had to take a magazine like sports illustrated and make the opposite so i made laziness illustrated. Where you can be a soldier or a football player who is working really hard at what they are doing, while you are siting on the couch doing nothing. I know I spelled laziness wrong but that is the irony of being too lazy to look it up.
