I enjoyed this project, even if I had less time to work on it than the other projects I’ve done this semester. I used a comic from an comedy artist I found named Shen Comix, for my color inventory. For my composition, the color inventory reminded somewhat of nature, so I decided to use the browns for a tree and the more colorful colors for a bird. The colors left over were grays so I gave the bird a tiny hat.

We started this project by learning about Visual balance. Our first step was to use our observation skills to find examples of different color schemes in book cover designs.

This is the part of the project where I used the colors from the color inventory reference.
Deliver
This project was very simple and fun to do and it was also a nice way to end the semester. Unlike the other projects, we did not spend a lot of time doing this project. I feel like we should have spent more time on this project or incorporated this project on another project like the Ways Of Seeing Book.
