Project 2: Self Portrait and Cover


The purpose of this cover art and self portrait profile art is to have the viewer keep their heads in the clouds. The warm colors represent the fresh, warm weather of spring time. The cool colors represent the fresh, gentle breezes we feel whenever we are outside. The flowers and the clouds represent the unity of an upcoming spring. The focal point is my profile art as well as the flowers coming together with the clouds.

Crossing the Line

I made this piece using a pencil, a pen and paper. First, I drew the picture using a pencil. Then I traced the pencil drawing with ink. Finally, I added some detail to the background. The mechanical lines are seen on the floor and walls. I added organic lines for the hero and the killer wielding the knife. The color is monotone. The focus is on the knife wielding villain and the hero. The crosshatching for the shadows are used to make them look like the scene is taken place in a lit room. The watery texture on the sharp end of the knife is the blood dripping. The piece that I drew, "Trapped with the Killer", is to stand out from the cartoon drawings I have made over the week.

These are the color variations for my profile art These are the references for the cover art that I am making for the project. And this is the cover art I will have for my project. The purpose of this cover art is to help the viewer reflex. It may also give the viewer a peace of mind while they are thinking happy thoughts.

And this is the final result of my profile and cover art.

Adventures of Tony the Yorkie Silky

Image
I made these drawings with pen on paper. First, I went crazy with the scribbles. Second, I draw my avatar in the scribble-like scenery. Finally, I've added some more detail to the scenery. The color for these drawings is monochrome. The cross hatchings of the lines in each drawing are for making the objects darker in appearance. My avatar is drawn with organic lines. The village has a symmetrical balance since it is divided by the valley. The texture for the grass in the third drawing is soft. The purpose of this series of drawings, Adventures of Tony the Yorkie Silky , is to introduce the viewers to my avatar, Tony the Yorkie Silky. In the first drawing, My Life with the Monster , Tony is tormented by an evil entity, which represents my life of torment I have endured under my sister. The second drawing, What Lies Beyond the Beanstalk , can give the viewers a curious feeling of what happens once Tony climbs the beanstalk. The third drawing, Watchi...
