book covers

For a book I have read I chose someone like you by Sarah Dessen, it's one of my favorite books, I enjoy all of Sarah Desssen's books that I have read so far. The second book cover I made was for Lock and Key that I have not read by Sarah Dessen yet. I decided to make the covers simple, but still nice to look at, since I haven't read Lock and Key yet it was a little harder to decide what to put on the cover so I just put a jeweled lock and key hanging from it. For someone like you I found a cute picture of a couple holding hands because the book is about a teenage girl being in love with her boyfriend and losing him in a motorcycle accident.

Dr. Seuss how the grinch stole christmas

For this project I decided to do one of my favorite Dr. Seuss stories, how the grinch stole christmas and it fits because it's almost christmas. Instead of making a page from the book i chose to do a new cover for the book. I wanted to make it creative and fun like all of Dr. seuss's books, i think it turned out well.

LIFE

My favorite LIFE magazine cover is the cover with Jackie Robinson on the front of it. Jackie Robinson was a hero, and someone that changed a lot of people's lives, people looked up to him. I like the way the picture is in all black with gray and white. He stands out from the background.

Kaleidoscope

For this project i took a picture of the senior mural Aladdin for spirit week. I picked my favorite part of the mural and cut out that section in a triangle and duplicated the part to form a kaleidoscope. Im very pleased with the way this project turned out i  think it looks very good.

Homecoming Ad

For my second ad I created an ad for this year's homecoming dance on October 22. I wanted to make the ad stand out from others and encourage people to go to the dance so I thought of using blue and gold disco balls since western's school colors are blue and gold. I put images in black of people dancing and having a good time on the disco balls. This ad has a theme of blue and gold for western. I really like the way it turned out, I think it's one of my best projects I've created.

 

my kaleidoscope

For this project I had to create a kaleidoscope. I took a portion of a picture and put the same part of it together several times to create a square kaleidoscope. I made the image bright and put two white strips through the images. I loved the design and this was a really fun project.

avatar

For this project I had to create an avatar of myself. I started off by making myself look like a cartoon then wanted to give myself the look of an avatar so I added layers made my skin glow blue and green. I wanted my personality to still be in my avatar so I decided for my avatar not to be an alter ego of myself. I really like the way it turned out I think my last project was one of my best and favorites.
