                                                              (Original Headphones)


InCyberARTS, we got an assignment to make our own logo. We had to chose a picture of something that sybolizes who were were as a person. Then we would put that image into Adobe Illustrator and make it look like whatever we wanted. 

Since I'm obsessed with music and listen to music all the time, I chose a pair of headphones. I thought that would suit my 
logo.

 And Since my favorite colours are cool colours, I set that as my colour scheme. I used light and dark blues, dark purple and black. 

I changed the colours of the original by using the "Pen Tool" in Adobe Illustrator, and traced the outline of the headphones. Then I filled them in with a colour. I also made multiple "layers" so that every part of the headphones would be a different colour, and so that one part would overlap.

Typography Assignment


In CyberARTS, our class was assigned to make a Tagzedo. Tagzedo is a website where you can make a wordle with a bunch of words and make a funky design with them. 

For my Tagzedo, I did a pear. I did a pear because they're my favourite fruit. I added words in it that describe my personality, my hobbies and what I like. For example, I put photography in there because i like taking pictures. I make bracelets as a hobby, so that's in there, and i love bands and music, so bands are in there as well. 
On Monday nights, I'm a Beaver Leader, so Beavers are in there. I can be kind of annoying and weird; plus, I'm always tired. 
I'm tall, i wear glasses and Converse high-tops.

I chose the colours because, I just liked them. I randomly picked them and I liked how the pink, red and green looked together with the pear shape; I thought it suited it well.

Class Assignment: School Garden Photos


School Garden Photos


In CyberARTS, we started photography. My class and I took cameras and walked to our school garden to take pictures. After we took the pictures, we uploaded them to a computer, and edited them slightly, to make them look more appealing. These are the pictures that I took:





This photo here I like because it doesn't 
 have anything distracting in the background. It has selective focus, which is great because you can focus on the flower, and only the flower. If you look closely, you can see a little bit of movement in the leaves on the left-hand side.







I love this photo because I just love the way the light behind the sunflower, makes the red show through the other side of the petals. The leaves on the right-hand side have the same effect, which i really like.


This is one of my favorites, because this photo has a great colour scheme of green and red. There is also something about the dirt around the radish that makes the redness stand out, which i love.  



   

                                        
When I saw these little flowers, i just had to take a picture. What I like about them is how their pinky colour looks bold and bright against the dark of the green. The biggest flower has selective focus, which in a way, makes it stand out.





These peppers are great, because you can see the skin being reflected by the light, on the third pepper. The selective focus on the peppers is awesome, because it shows a little emphasis, which separates itself from the blurry background; but makes a cool effect.




These little orange flowers are so cute! I just love how they're arranged; big flower in the front, and smaller flowers, spread out from behind. The way the light orange fades into dark orange is quite pretty. Not bad for a photo taken by me, I think.







I'm not very good at taking pictures, but that's because i'm a beginner. Over the course of this unit, I hope to improve my skills. However, my artist statements aren't too good, so I'm sorry about that ;S I hope you liked my pictures! And you can expect another post in about a week or so. See you soon!
