Value-Added Portraits: Phase 4

From this project, I learn how to use the gouache paint. It was hard for me to use the paint because it is my first time painting with gouache paint. The color didn’t come out as I wanted when it dried. What I can do better next time is to spend more time testing the color when it is wet and when it is dry. However the digital one we use photoshop to make was fun, it come out pretty similar to the original one.

Phase 3

 

Midterm Grade

 

Throughout this course, even up until now, I have learned a variety of things in regards to the principles of graphic design. I have learned about the figure-ground relationship, stable and unstable figures, high-key value range as well as the lowkey-value range and focal points. I was taught how to achieve compositional flows and movement within my projects. I began to realize that colors and shadows can influence a viewer to a specific mood depending on their portrayal of the project. I learned how to use Photoshop for animation mashups and more. What I could have done differently would be time management. I did not emphasize on my time management as much as I should have. I will push myself much harder to meet the deadlines on time rather than late. That is something I will continue to work on as we continue the next projects in this course.
