Kaleidoscope Effect

For this assignment, we used skew and transform tools to create a kaleidoscope effect. I used images of the Eiffel Tower, the Sydney Opera House, and a ballerina. I was inspired by an artsy travel and love photography website. I am satisfied with this work, I think it looks really cool. I would be more careful with getting exactly 45 degrees next time.

Four Square

For this assignment, I used one picture that I took and duplicated four times on one canvas. Then I applied filters and alterations to all of them. I rotated them to give the image a connected look. I was inspired by the awesomeness of Abby's shoe. I am satisfied with this work, I think it looks really cool. I loved this assignment!

Negative Space and Text Warp Tool

For this assignment, we focused on using negative space and the text warp tool. For the first picture, I tried to replace Abby's arms with a picture of wedding rings. Then I posted the lyrics to the song that inspired me yet again, "Walk On" by U2. I am satisfied with this work. Next time I might do something a little more relevant to my life. For the second picture, I took a picture of a bride on her wedding day looking out a window. I used the negative space of her silhouette to portray all of the ideas and feelings she might be having. I was inspired by my aunt and uncles, whose wedding anniversary is today. I am satisfied with this work. The third piece is my silhouette filled in with words and activities that describe me. I only really did this one to fulfill the assignment requirements. I am not totally satisfied with this work because you can't tell that the blob is me. Next time I would pose in a different way so that the viewer could tell what the outline was supposed to be. Oh well. Happy Tuesday. :)

Wordle

For this assignment, we played with the website wordle.net. My words come from the lyrics of the song "October" by U2. I am satisfied with this work. I really like this song and I think it is appropriate considering it's October now! I love fall. :)
