1) What are 3 things that you like about your project? You must describe this is detail. Use vocab that we have developed in class. Are they technical concerns (contrast, def indef) or aesthetic (emphasis, color) concerns? I like how the three shapes are splotched together, the two lower shaped colors, and how I used definite andindefinite images. These were aesthetic concerns.
2) How would you grade yourself? Look at the rubric and determine what your grade should be. Explain why. I would give myself a 40/44. My faults were
not adding a layer to every new element and using placement to create emphasis.
3) What was your biggest struggle with this project? Explain why.
My biggest struggle was blending. I didn't know the best technique to blend and was unsure
what paint brush size to use and how to use opacity levels. The blending looking splotchy
and full of small faded dots.
4) What is one area where you could use improvement? How could you make improvement? One area I could use improvement would be the color of the tertiary. I
don't like the color because brown doesn't mesh with the brighter colors well. I would use
a color such as light blue-green.
5) What aesthetic skills did you learn? Look at the assignment sheet. I learned
how to create color contrast, use size, use definite versus indefinite, use placement, and
clearly establish a primary, secondary, and tertiary.
6) What technical skills did you learn? Look at the assignment sheet. I used
a variety of brushes, learned how to use separate layers, and varied the opacity of brushes.
