Teapot variations

These variations are of the original Coffee cup image. In class, we learned how to select different strokes and change the design of them. We also learned how to change the color setting.

Final Variations


These are the final two versions of Groovy Juice

I learned from the critique that Groovalicious tweak was the bast font to go over the rainbows. I also filled the empty space with white to make it more readable. I also added the green hills to give it more of a hippy and nature like feel to it. Another thing I added was the "drink responsibly" text at the bottom right corner informing people that this is not a beverage for people under the age of 21. I also made two pictures to try out some different Ideas such as the color of the logo on the bottle, the clouds, and the gradient vs the psychedelic design on the bottle.  I added a fill to the clouds on one picture to give it a realistic feel to it. The second picture has an outline of the clouds to make it seem more like wall paper. 

What others are doing


This is a beverage that is created  with the same idea as Groovy juice, other then the fact that it is a hallucinogenic .
Marley's Mellow Mood was created to give relaxation to the person drinking it. 

Text Variation



These were several different text variations created. 
Craft:  These were done in Adobe illustrator using a bamboo tablet and pen. The first step was painting the background blue. From there I drew the bottle and moved it to the bottom left corner and tilted it. After that I used the colors to the rainbow to draw the exploding juice from the bottle. After that I set the colors on the gradient tool to rainbow and used the brush tool to color the he bottle. After that I selected several different fonts to type Groovy juice.
Concept: This is supposed to show a lot of colors and be very vibrant. The pictures are supposed to be an advertisement for a hallucinogenic juice. 
Composition: First you are supposed to look at the bottle. From there you shift your eyes to the exploding juice. After you have noticed everything you read the text that explains what the bottle is. 

Inspiration



These are photos that I used for my inspiration. I used a coke bottle as a reference to how I drew mine. I took the colors off of the rainbow to paint the exploding juice. The middle picture is from an episode of The Simpsons where Homer Simpson gets in touch with his hippy side and works at a juice factory. There is a scene where some questionable ingredients were used to make the juice. This causes people to hallucinate. This is where I got the idea of Groovy Juice. 
This is the digitized first sketch of my original Idea.

Master/disaster

Disaster Piece

This is the pice in the museum that I would consider to be the disaster piece. This was created by Georgia O Keeffe and the title is  Sky Above Clouds iv. I consider this a disaster piece because the white ovals that are supposed to be clouds look more like chunks of ice on the water. On the other hand this can be excused if the main point of this piece was to make an abstract rendering of clouds. If this is the case then I would take back my statement.

Masterpiece


This was  a portrait of Philippe Coypel and His Wife. I consider this to be the master piece because of the amount of time that was taken to make this painting, the part that I want to focus on is the lace on the arm of Coypel's wife. I really like the fine lines and different shades of white grey and white lines. I would think that this would be one of the main focuses of the picture because its the only part that is sticking out of the frame.


Shapes

Craft: Illustrator CC was used for this assignment as well as a bamboo tablet and pen. First I looked for a picture of a coffee cup and uploaded it in Illustrator. After that I created several layers for the background, the saucer and the cup. I used the pen tool to make the lines and the water mark tool to grab the exact colors that was used in the original picture. 
Concept: There is no real concept towards this picture, it was an assignment in which the main point was to learn how to draw a picture that derived from a photo. 
Composition: When I look at this picture my focus is on the detail in the actual cup, first I look at the background, more specifically where it has more shadow. From there I move to the saucer and then I focus on the detail of the cup.
