Color self-portrait


For this project of the color self portrait, it was easier and more simple since all I had to do was 


select the elements in the different layers as I used the eyedropper tool to copy the color from 


the original picture and color it. I was not going to over complicate myself and restart from 


scratch just to have it in color instead of making it in a grey scale. I did not want to make my hair 


black as it was boring, but in reality my hair is a dark brown so I tried to make it as accurate as 


possible. I made the colors a bit darker due to the lighting in the picture, but at least it is 


accurate enough to show the actual face and skin color as the lighting makes it brighter. 


In conclusion, doing the color self portrait was way easier as the past project of the grey scale 


Portrait saved me the trouble.

3 Letters Final

Image
   The three letters that I have chosen for this final was Garamond, Rockwell, and Baskerville. What I did was that I drew 2 lowercase letters as white, but I colored in the Q black so it wasn’t so bland. Making the sketches was a bit easy since I was able to imagine what I wanted to do for this project, but what was hard for me to do was to draw the curves when the letter had a small curve like the Q has. But the harder letter I had to do was the letter g since drawing it in lowercase looked harder to do. What I would have changed about this was add words at the background so it could look more interesting and not so bland.

Repetition- Emily G

Image
When I was doing repetition of direction, I felt confident on this piece because I had a vision on this artwork where I was imagining a tunnel going all the way down as if the forms were getting smaller and smaller like if it was going down. I like the end results because I was able to complete what I was imagining when starting this and it was more detailed and more focused than the other finals I was doing for this assignment. What I think would have done a bit more differently was to add more detail to the corners to give it more depth and shade. I think my drawing skills have improved a little bit on this piece since due to the more advanced design and detail added into it. r

Point Line Plane by Emily Gomez

Image
This drawing was the first drawing I made was, line. I liked this first drawing when I did it in the rough drafts because it looked like a rose to me in a weird way, so I decided to add it to the published one, and what I did here was just add lines and make it go smaller as I go further into the middle of the paper. but it was a challenge to me because it didn't look like how it was in the draft which was a disappointment for me, but it was too late to change it. I think I could have changed it by fixing the lines and the ends of it. But I think it looks weird and different because of the frame since it looks different on the rough draft. This drawing shows that I've used points on this frame. When I drew this on the rough drafts it was easy for me since I just drew 3 dots and resembled a point since it was basically just 3 points. It was challenging for me since it was easy, but the only thing I didn't have to mess up was the circles since I was doing it with a sharpie. T...
