Collage

My topic is social problem. With the developing of medicine, anyone can change their face as their idols but some people over-used about this so they can easily ruin themselves if they are unlucky. I used the face of super stars to mix it together such as Angelia Jolie, Paris Hilton, Jenifer Aniston and Chae rim. Besides that, I used brush tool and thread picture to make the scar for mixed face. Moreover, I used hospital picture and added some cool color, brush blood to make the feeling scared for this work. I also added radial blur to make the viewer attraction. In order to warn people, I put the knife and cut based skull and crossbones that are dead sign.

I hope you will like my entry and feel free to comments

Creating a Letter with Illustrator

Hi everyone!!!

This entry I will show you my work that is creating the letter "L" by Illustrator software. I created the 5 letters "L" by using Pen tool. I will count to follow the order from left to right and from 1 to 5

1. That is just the normal letter L. I just draw as a normal capital L letter
2. I tried to draw the special letter L so I drew the letter L as cartoon style. Do you feel it looks like as leg wearing NIKE shoe. Besides that, I also drew wings as a Greek God-Hermes
3. I drew the other letter L and after I finished it I felt it doesn't look like the letter L. (T_T)
4. I drew the other letter L again and I put it eye, nose and legs
5. Finally, I drew it as Vietnamese calligraphy style

Hope you enjoy my work and receive your any comments. Thanks for reading

Gestal Practice 2

With this work, I tried to apply the gestal theory. After I added the text into the flower picture, I used line tool to draw lines and I put it as rectangular. Do you feel your mind will close the blanks between the 2 lines automatically. That is closure. My work looks very simple. Maybe I should try to pratice more...

Hope you comment for me to improve gestal theory. Thanks a lot

Gestal Practice

Hi everyone!!!

With this work, I also tried to apply gestalt theory into it. I used 2 flower pictures, one is main picture and I use second flower picture to cut and paste it into main picture. The color of pasted flower is white and it has same color with the main picture so I change the color from white color to yellow color. When you see this work, which flower are you attacked mostly???Is that yellow flower?

If the answer is Yes, I am successful to apply similarity with this work. Because most flowers in this work are the white so when I added the yellow color, it will make flower easy to identify. Besides that, I also pasted the flower one more, resized and arranged it to center of the yellow color. After that, I changed its color to be green color. I used overlap to make a strongest gestalt.

If the answer is NO. Haizz... I must try to practice more....^-^!

Thanks for reading and hope you comment

Sun and moon logo

Hello Everyone!!!

This entry would like to introduce for you about my work which was logo design for T-shirt. I used Illustrator to do this logo and I am not enough professional about Illustrator so this my work is very simple. The idea Yin Yang to do sun and moon came from Internet. My teacher told her students (of course, including me ^-^) search the Internet to find the idea. I am accidental to see the logo of Aikido which is Yin Yang symbol so I decide to do sun and moon by using Yin Yang symbol

In order to creating Yin Yang, I drew 3 circles, one main circle and two circle have to be smaller than main circle. After that, I put two circles into this center of main circle and erasing the irrelevant lines

***note: two small circles are equal

After I finished the Ying Yang, I began to draw the sun and moon. I just use some tools in Illustrator to finish my work. If you look my sun carefully, the sun is so simple. I just create it by using Twirl Tool. With the moon, I just use pen tool to create the star. Besides that, I used the black, yellow, and white color to emphasis the sun and moon

In general, my work is very simple. I will try to pratice Illustrator more. Hope you like my work and feel free to comment
