Surreal Practice Tutorials

In the desert tutorial we did many things to make it seem realistic. We used gradiants to make it the color that it can normally be and made it pop out. We transformed it so we could move it and then it can seem real and it pops out. We picked a blue for the sky and then made a graidant to make the blue seem real. We also used cloud paint brushes to make it seem realistic but we used different sizes and different clouds. These tutorials will help for future projects because we know how it will look if we combine different things together, and now we know how to make things seem realistic. We can know pop out colors and make things seem like they are real rather then fake.

Artist Statement

My Future

My future quilt represents the future I have aside for my life. I put many pictures together to make a quilt that has a lot of ideas that I see myself in years. I put two universities to show that I will be going to both in my life, which are ASU and UNC. I put a neonatal nurse flower to show that one day I will accomplish my university life to become a neonatal nurse as my career. I blended the pictures together to make it stronger to show that they are all together and represent a whole that belongs to my life.
It shows the love that I feel for myself putting the person who means the world to me and just putting what I can see myself accomplishing in years.

Graduation Program

I believe the back of the program was my strength, I think the pegasus and the words went very well together. I like how the words came out with the bigger meaning words being a different color. I think I could have made the graduation cap and diploma more interesting or could have fixed the effects on it. The graphic design was very hard because I did not know what to do or what to put, it takes time to figure out what I wanted to do. I think the most important thing about graphic designs is the way to make it so it can pop out and be very noticeable to people. The graphic designs play a big role and it makes the people want the product.

Senior Invitation

I believe my strength in my Senior Portfolio invitation is the front. I like how my picture is very bright on the part of my school. I also like how CCHS looks like. I could have made the front picture a little more interesting to make it pop out, and make it say "WOW." But I didn't I just put the picture of the school. I struggled to decide what I should put on my back and front cover, but I had to make my best effort to pick and I picked what I have on it now. I believe I did better on the Graduation Program rather then the Senior Portfolio Invitation because I think it was more creative.
