Week 2 Assignment 3

On this assignment we were to make a black & white design using some of the tools from previous lessons. This is what I came up with.

Week 2 Assignment 2



This is my first thoughts on making a design using only black & white, 2-4 circles in a group and the group duplicated 2-4 times. I found out that lines were not permitted so I then submitted the next picture.




I like them both, but I did not like the first one without the lines around the white circles. Only time will tell on the grade.

Design Update



I got a good critique on the last assignments, but I had not used some of the features on the second design that were used on the first design. So I tried again with this design.

I got A's for last weeks assignments so I guess I'm doing okay.

Paris Update



Paris and I play every day. She has a special mouse type that she really likes. If I am not paying attention she ends up eating the mouse. So we play together when I wake up in the morning and again when I get home from work. I think she could be a ball player if there was a cat ball team. Sometimes it would be soccer or football, and sometimes gymnastics. She is a great companion!

2nd Illustrator Assignment



This assignment called for the use of equal amounts of positive and negative space using only black and white coloring. I think I did pretty well with the assignment. I will find out in a few days how well I really did when we get our grades.

Classes have started again!




This is our first assignment for the Fundamentals of Design class. A design exercise using 2 shapes with black and white coloring. I used illustrator to get the project done, since I am not real comfortable with that program yet. I sure am learning how to get around illustrator with the next few assignments.

I am hoping to get a good critique from the class.

Grades Update

Well I got an A in the Concept Development class!!! I have a few weeks to relax for the next class doesn't start until January 12th. Time to catch up on stuff around the house that I have been putting off. Plus being the end of the year I need to upgrade software on the PC. So I will be busy for awhile. Hope everyone has a Wonderful New Year!

Remodeled Display



I had to many graphics pulling the eye away from the flame. I needed more ease of use to pull out the lighters. And I should have had the hierarchy of the Logo more prominent. Other than that it was okay. I hope.
