Picasso Painting

 


In this project I used the brush tool to do many different things in order to replicate the original. I used both the brush tool and mixer brush with the brush tool being used to put the colors onto the right spot and then I used the mixer brush in order to blend some of the colors and add texture and detail to the image. I also used different brush styles in order to make some of the details and changed the scale of the brush in order to make some of the minor details or to make things like the background since it would be easier to make it with a larger brush. I also used the eye dropper to get some of the colors I needed that were close to the original color which was helpful in making both the image and shading relatively accurate to the original image. This part taught me quite a bit as I knew about the brush styles and size changing but the mixer brush was unknown to me. This was really helpful as it allowed me to learn a lot about how the mixer brush worked and while I don't have a full 100% understanding of the tool, I do understand how it works.


The Jacqueline aux Fleurs painting is one of Pablo Picasso's works which translates to Jacqueline with flowers. This piece was a way to commemorate his new wife at the time Jacqueline Roque who was his second wife after his first one passed away. When he first saw her, he saw a resemblance to a women in in Delacroix's Women of Algiers. This inspiration led to Picasso creating the art piece in a classical, Mediterranean style as he saw the beauty in those in Jacqueline.

Branded Print Ad: Reflection

Branded Ad Did Your Logo Do Well In The Ad? I think my logo did do well in the ad. The white color I put on it drags your eyes to it first since it contrasts with the dark colors on the ad. I also think its a good way to incorporate it on there as adding the logo to the bean would seen off and in this ad I'm not promoting one specific product but rather the brand as a whole so it made more sense to just leave it near the top of the ad. The logo stands out but not so much that it is the center of attention and allows you to gradually go from looking at the logo then the bean in the middle and then the text of the ad. If I were to change anything then I'd probably use my logo to promote a product. Putting my logo on a cup of coffee, can of coffee, or coffee bean bag would make more sense than leaving it at the top if I were to promote a product. Did Your Brand Research Help In The Making Of This Ad? I think brand research actually helped a lot when it came to making this ad. The ...

Logo Development

 Pencil Roughs For my pencil roughs, I decided to go with a few variations for half of the names I had because I wasn't really leaning towards one specific name at the time. During this process I spent a few days going over my names and what I wanted to do with them. With the names Torres, Alpine Sip, and Kosmik I had somewhat of an idea on what to do for them. For Torres I wanted to go for a script or transitional font in order to make the word Torres stand. For Alpine Sip, I had the idea of making a graphic of the alpine region. Finally for Kosmik, I decided to do a spacey idea, focusing on the cosmos, constellations and other aspects of space.  I personally found some of these sketches to be fun to make and I enjoyed making while others I didn't know what to do and decided to make something I believed fit the font. I feel like I could improve by taking better pictures of the images and maybe putting more thought and effort into those designs I wasn't motivated in making....

My Brand - Initial Ideas

  1. My brand belongs in the Beverage industry 2. The main product or service would be Coffee 3. The motivation of my brand would be to provide affordable and high quality coffee to customers 4.  Pleasant, Generous, Tasty 5. 3 values are to be affordable, have great quality, and have uniqueness to stick out from others,  6. I would like to have a sort of late modern/art deco/arts & crafts style with an aesthetic that represents Central America, 1–500 A.D. or Iberian Peninsula, 1400–1600 A.D. or Medieval  7. High Quality Coffee for Low Affordable Prices. 8. The demographics would be adults or anyone who enjoys coffee. There wouldn't be a gender limit because everybody drinks coffee and isn't specific to 1 gender. As for age it would mainly be targeted towards adults but also includes teens as there are some teens that drink coffee and while there are some kids who have coffee, it isn't directly intended for them.  9. My target audience would experie...
