Calligram Project


 This is my final product for the calligram project. It was inspired by my love for hiking and the woods. A lot of my creativity and inspiration for the way I live my life has come from the nature I grew up around so I wanted that to be reflected in my project to always keep in mind my beginnings as I embark on my future.

The tools I used was primarily the warp text tool. I used this along with the darker green tones to give the look of pine needles that come together to make pine trees. I used different shades of blue rectangles in the background to give depth and I used opacity to help them blend together. Overall, I am proud of this project because it reflects what inspires me everyday.

Nature has made me who I am today and I realized recently how important it is for me.

Canvas Project!

       Above is my final product. I am very proud of how it came out! This is my first time coding and it was definitely a rough start. It took me a total of 8 hours to complete this design.      This design was inspired by one of my favorite bands, Sublime. I really connect with their music and this album cover (shown below) from their "40 oz. to freedom" album is an image that has stuck with me ever since I saw it for the first time. I knew I wanted to create something at least loosely inspired by it so the paper shown below that is my own interpretation of the original art. https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/5/57/Sublime40OztoFreedomalbumcover.jpg Original Sketch:      A did run into a big obstacle during this project. This happened when I was making all 9 of my rays, coming off of the center circle. I had been making them by putting two separate bezier curves next to each other and then connecting them at the ends. This worke...
