Fundamentals Of Design by Eric Torres

  I think that I did pretty well with creating the letters though the serifs and the neatness and the accuracy all need to be improved on. I do think that it turned out pretty well as the word MAX is all connected so part of the M makes up the A and part of the M makes up the X. Like I said earlier, I need to work on neatness and accuracy as I struggle with creating the serifs and also the curves as that is a bit hard for me. Also some of the lines like at the top of the I need to be worked on as I made it the right size but then messed up during the coloring. Overall I think that the final came out pretty well but was a bit time consuming.

  I personally enjoyed this project as it allowed me to utilize type in a way I never have before. I also like how my image came out and how it represents most of my name depending on how you interpret it. I feel like I could work on the neatness of the image especially the C. I also felt like it was a bit challenging getting the letters of the fonts correct but overall I think the image turned out well.

I feel like I did well on this one as I took the most time with it. I like how it came out and how it looks as it’s just how I imagined it would. I don’t think I would have done anything differently as it looks good but maybe some neatness would be fine. I do feel like my drawing skills improved a bit as I took more time to do the work. I feel like I did well and took my time to make it look well. I like how it looks but I think I could work on using more of the blank space. I would’ve probably fixed my issue of not using scrap paper to stop the bleeding. Since I forget the next page and the next drawing has quite a bit of bleeding which ruins the image. I feel like they didn’t really improve from this piece as it is just shapes and not much else. I feel like I did ok on this but I wish I could do something better. I think it looks fine but is too simple and I only did this one since there was sharpie bleeding through so I used the black bars to cover that and it also get rid of a patt...

 Pattern From Textbook  Pattern Project  My process was to recreate the pattern as best as I could and to utilize all of the colors that we cut out. We as a group also decided to change the sizes a bit which would allow us to maintain the repetition of shape while also giving it our own creative touch. In a way I did achieve what I wanted as it is a recreation of the pattern and uses different colors in order to make the pattern. Each person cut out different circles to use in the pattern and we both worked on different sections of the pattern like one worked on the circles on the edges while the other one worked on the inner circles. I enjoyed the cutting process I guess as I never really cut anything and it gave me some practice with cutting out circles which I was always bad at. I didn't really enjoy the whole put shapes on a large canvas thing as I'm not really into things that are hands on in groups. Overall I thought this project was a nice experience and a good way...

This shows repetition as the person is being repeated 3 different times just in different sizes. This shows rhythm as there is movement through the people that can be seen from the smallest to largest or largest to smallest. This shows repetition through the bricks repeating and the lamp posts, the people on bikes, and the houses repeat as well. This shows emphasis in a way as all the white space is being emphasized as the focal point by the brocks and your attention is drawn towards the white space.

 Detachment: This shows detachment as the two parts are separated and no longer connected. I feel like I did well but could work on the neatness. Touching: This shows touching because the two white parts are next to each other and 1 black part touches the white part above or below it. I feel like I did well on this one. Overlapping: This shows overlapping because one set of white ribbon like lines are above the other set. I feel like it came out well but I messed up a ribbon and some sharpie bleed onto the page despite having scrap paper to stop it. Penetration: This shows penetration as the color from one section goes through one of the sections of the circle. I feel like it came out well and there is some slight sharpie bleeding but overall I think it’s fine. Union: This shows union as the two shapes create one whole shape. I feel like this is good but there could be some work on the neatness. Subtraction: This shows subtraction as this white shape is contrasted by the black back...
