Open Project: Process

My idea is to use different images together to create a final image in the collage style that I found myself enjoying this semester. I want to use meaningful images that capture the growth I've had since the beginning of 2020, and how I've become the person I am proud of today. I am going to include some hand-drawn outlines in the style pictured above, with funky, fun backgrounds that are lively and exciting.

Project One - Process

Image
  The object I chose is a retro fridge! There is one in one of my favorite stores back at home and they use it for storage, which I think is really neat. When I first worked with it, I found that I did the whole thing with the doors closed. Because I want to develop this into a fantasy appliance, I realized I needed to leave it open in order to show what is inside, which is where the "fantasy" part of my project comes in. I'm enjoying working with the tools and developing my skills in Illustrator and am excited to move forward to work with the background once I'm done doing this!

The Cyclical Nature of Things: Process 1

  For this first iteration, I am working with blending modes and masks to combine certain elements of some of the objects and images I captured. I want them to interact with the background, which was an image of the sky with a house at the bottom. Right now I'm liking the colors and idea, but I want to develop it a little more as I add things. Considering this is only combining four of my images, I have a long way to go before I'll be trying out new ideas-- for now I want to just add onto this and incorporate as many of my images as possible.

The Cyclical Nature of Things: Process 2

Image
  This was my first image. I included a few transparents that I made with masks and collaged them onto a square canvas size.  I developed the first image into the second image by adding a few more layers and removing what I thought was too busy. The concept for this part is images that remind me of my past, whether its my childhood, my adolescence, or the past few years. It is a good mix of many things, and to fill in the empty space I included lyrics to one of my favorite songs, which happens to have to do with time passing. I messed with some blending modes and curated an image that I actually really like.
