Really proud of these drawing,thy came really easy to me. This assignment was fun, we had to copy and study the drawings of master artist “Jean Auguste Dominique Ingres” and then get a friend to pose as one of the drawings and recreate our own! I want to thank Hannah for being my lovely model:) #art #artwork #creative #instaart #artoftheday #beautiful #beautifuldrawings #portrait #portraitdrawing #mastersatwork #Ingres #graphite #graphiteart #drawing #expressive #lineart #graphitedrawing #realism #penicil #pencildrawing #realisticart #semirealistic #sketch #drawings #portraitartist #masterpiece #artclass #model #instadraw https://www.instagram.com/p/Bt4zKo8llrC/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=3l108wmagrzh

Reflection

These are my five final pieces I created for my Sematic Typography assignment in my typography class.The word I chose was elimination. The goal of this project was to come up with different ways to communicate your chosen word to look more visually pleasing. The launguage choice I chose to write the word in romanian(ELIMINARE).I really like my ideas and I think I exicuted them all very well. I am not proud of my line work or finished backgrounds. I came up with more ideas then I expected and picking the best ones were a challenge. I think that I could have still spent a bit more time on the process of this project but personally I think I did manage to put more time and effoert into this one, more so then the others.Considering one of the objectives of the assignment were to NOT include any illistrative aspects to the words Ithought it would be very difficult. Though it still was difficult I still managed to come up with ideas that were new and only played with the letters, and that I am proud of. This assignment though is still a reminder to me to keep my final projects more clean and not look messy or rushed. I have to say though I think I pulled off what I was aiming to do.

Spaced out assignment reflection

I really do think my end result was pretty good for this assignment and I think my idea was pretty smart as well. I chose Centaur because I really like old traditional looking fonts. The font itself gave me the idea of the crown as well because how old and traditional the font looks to me. I think I pulled off my idea very well but I could have added a few more gems on it to make it look a bit more complete. While creating my project a few things did not work out during my process, one of these things being that when I started filling in the negative space in the crown I noticed the ink from the pen for the letters I used began to bleed. I should have tested out my pens before hand to see how they held up against water. I had a few mistakes I had to fix, but I did correct them as best I could. In the beginning of planning out for this project I struggled a bit with the concept as well as coming up with any good ideas. In the end I did understand and come up with an idea I am more then happy with. Their are a few things I would change to perhaps get a better result I am happier with but that doesn't mean I am not happy with the result I finished with.

Abstract- Episode 6

4 great things about this episode… 

 1) The amount of time and effort she has put into her career to get to the place she is today. 

 2) The amount of years she has been a graphic designer as well as the amount of big companies she had worked with. 

 3) Paula Scher is a very well skilled as well as educated designer, she makes her designs with some sort of seriousness but also creative play in her work. Her design and way of work is very fascinating to me. 

 4) When working with companies or groups of people she makes them see her point of view when she comes up with new designs. I admire her persuasion with people to get them to see her point of view.

A) Typography: The design technique and practice of displaying legible language clear, presentable and visually pleasing.

B) Serif : Serifs are the end strokes on the end of letters in fonts, these types of fonts will usually display a more old fashioned traditional look.

C) Sans serif : Sans serif fonts are displays to look more modern with the gothic style. They are most likely used for titles and headings rather then a full body text. They lack the serifs and include a boldness that tell them apart.

Sans serif fonts

1) nevis 

2)Roboto

3)Open Sans

4)Cabin 

5)Code light

Serif fonts
