Apple Day 2

We worked on this painted apple again and I just blurred it some more. This is really hard for me as not being so "technical savvy" but it is coming along and that is what I care about. The middle part of the apple is too green so I am going to have to change that because it looks... ugh. And I don't want it to look ugh, but yay! instead

Apple Painting

Since I missed class last time, I never got started on our new project- painting a realistic apple in Photoshop. So today i found a picture of an apple (that was approved)and started painting it. this is hard for me because i do love traditional painting sop it is hard to do it on a computer with a mouse and pixels instead of a canvas with a paintbrush and paint. But i am making my way threw it slowly but it will be finished! Muhahaha!

Wallpaper *face palm*

So today i realized, I never finished a wallpaper. And it was my favorite one! The star-dot one! I didn't realize that it continued onto the next page. *face palm* but here it is now! All done! Finally!

Vocab 3

• Rhythm-continuity, recurrence or organized movement in space & time.

   

• Directional Movement-directs the viewer's eye around or through the artwork, in a way which the artist consciously or unconsciously determines.

• Proportion / Scale-the relation of one part to the whole, or to other parts

• Balance-a state of equilibrium of the visual forces in a composition.

• Uniyt- painting is connected and flows nicely within itself

• Harmony-he pleasing agreement of parts or combination of parts in a composition

• Secondary Colors-Colors that are mixed by using only the primary colors. ex.blue+yellow=green, red+blue= purple, red+yellow=orange

• Tertiary Colors- colors that are created by mixing one primary and one secondary colors. red+orange=red orange, red+purple= red purple...

• Asymmetry-no symmetry in painting whats so ever- lack of symmetry

Finish Apple (I think)

So here is my finished apple. Apparently i had a back spot over they eye and I tried to get rid of it, but I think I made things worse. To me it looks flat, especially around the eye. But I tried my best and did the best i could and that is all I can do.

Started all over

After some time spent on the cherries, i realized (with some help), that it wasn't going to work out. So i started all over from square one, with new pictures and everything. I got farther with this one but still have some trouble with making it look "real", especially the face. I'm trying some different tecnhiques and going back in steps to see where I messed up or didn't complete the steps.

Bad Fruit part 2

Once again we worked on the bad fruit but i am still having trouble with it. So i switched to just doing one head and i am still having trouble with it! I got really aggravated with myself and became very angry at it. I'm gonna have to ask a lot of questions next class.

Food Gone Wrong

Today we started  new project and it is really challenging for me. We have to morph heads onto fruits and it is very confusing. I thought i would try something like this but i think i am getting in over my head with it because i have to morph 2 heads on instead of one. I Am still going to try it but I might go and change it back to an apple and find an easier picture to morph because this is really hard for me.
