Illustrated Harmonious Moment

IMG_1143Proportional Color Inventory

For this project, we had to make a color inventory and illustrate a harmonious moment in our life.  For the color inventory, I chose a picture of my friends and I after prom.  I felt that the bright colors and the joyous feeling in the picture depicts a truly harmonious moment where everything feels good.  As for the harmonious moment in my life, I chose to draw myself drawing (mind blown!)  I feel like when I draw, I really escape from any problems and just focus on making as good of a piece that I can.  That’s when I truly feel harmonious with the world.  The colors from the color inventory served well because bright colors generally give off a good vibe.  They fit into the drawing where I’m really focused and happy.

Color Harmony Palettes

This project was done to show our understanding of color harmony and hierarchy.  The first piece is an analogous palette.  Since we needed some balance, I figured I’d signify that by drawing something similar to a yin yang circle.  The first color is a light green, while the second and third are darker greens.  I put a muted green in the middle as it was a color  in between the other two, and I think it shows a balance between the two colors.  The second piece is a gas mask because I have this strange fascination with gas masks (don’t judge me!)  This piece was meant to show shades, tints, and progression.  Shades are colors that go from prismatic to black.  In this piece, the violet transitions to black.  Tints go from prismatic to white as shown by the yellow.  Progression has one color transition to its complementary color, as shown by the goggles where the violet turns into yellow.
