Valued- Added Portraits: Phase 4

For this project, I learned a lot about broad value range and narrow value range, two words at the beginning had no clue what they meant at all. I gained more experience on photoshop since i am a newbie at it so that’s is useful for me and something i can apply in the future. The things i could have done better might have be the painting, since i was kind of rushing it even though it doesn’t look like it, but with more time i could have put into it, the results would have been more better. However, I’m still proud at the end of the finishing of the painting.

Valued- Added Portraits: Phase 2

For this phase of the project, you can tell the different between my images of which one is broad value range and which is narrow value range. For the broad value range, i wanted my figure to stand out with the plain white background compare to the narrow value range that has a black background. The center point for the broad value range image is the three eyes i have since it draws more attentions and how it looks unique and alien like. Meanwhile for my narrow value range image, the focus point is the nose in the column of eyes because its only one nose in the sea of eyes and that my lower face is like a tail, almost like a sea animal that’s alien like roaming the sea. the hours i spent on this was 3 hours max.

Valued- Added Portraits: Phase 3

So here you see the 4 images i worked on for this project. The painting is based off of the broad value range image that i had to glue on paper. while the narrow value range is digital made on photoshop and is based off of the narrow value range i also had to glue on paper. The easiest i have to say was the painting since I had some knowledge on doing shadowing  to contrast and adding highlights to certain spots to bring out the features. This was the most complicated project to do because i didnt’t get it at first and didn’t understand until a little later. The narrow value range is the revision i did with the help of my fellow classmates and teacher and their feedback to how improve my work more. I spent a whole day if you count all the hours invested to each image you see.

Saturation Studies: Phase 2

The things i learned in this phase of the project is to how to apply different colors to effect the saturation which means you can have purely saturated, muted, or desaturated colors. That adding white to it will help lighting the color with a different shade. The hours i spent on this project was 6.5 hours mostly because I had to make sure i blended it right to get the right color which was very challenging for me and new.

Saturation Studies: Phase 1

For the color wheel I wanted to do was based off of roses, different colors of roses. The reason why I chose roses because roses are my favorite flower so I wanted to add that on to the concept of the color wheel of my idea. So I search differently beautiful different colors of roses that are real and mostly fake colors. The hours I spent on this was at least 5 at most because applying the pictures and remembering the step by step was slightly complicated, but I got the hang out of it and was able to finish it.
