Blog Assignment 5

  I think the most significant accomplishment for my midterm project is the idea. I may not use the photoshop technique well , but I think I get a good idea. In midterm I create a scene I play basketball with Allen Iverson ,this is my frst project I put myself i the picture , I am so excited, and this is also accord with our big idea -----Dream.


  I think the most challenging project is create a Movie Cover. Althorgh we can do everything we like , but  I still have no idea at first. Finally , I finish a movie cover about avater and star wars , I think is no a bad job. In this quarter , I think the tecnique I improve fast is the select tools . I know this is a basic tools , but at first when I try to cut somthing from other pictures , it takes me many time to use select tools. Now I can use it very fast and perfect.

  I think the biggest change show in two project is between  the mazagine cover and movie cover . In th mazagine cover , we just know how to put the picture together and marshalling , but in the movie cover , we start to change the brightness and hue , and we have many things and technique to change, too. If we come back to see the mazagine cover , the is no doubt than we can do it better .

  For my final project, I try to create a CD cover , I will try my best .

Blog Assignment #4

  In my final project, I will try to make a CD cover to my favorite Singer ---James Blunt. I think it isn't a easy job because CD cover must be elegant and impressive. I will create the whole CD, include cover and the back. In the cover , I will try to make the cover like a real CD , and list the songs in the back.It will be a new try and I am excited .
  And these three pictures are influenced me to doing my work. 


The First picture I like it's Idea, just like our big idea about Dream .At that time we try to combining many pictures to tell the point idea--Dream ,this kind of cover can make the details abundant.
The second one  I like it is letters , this arrangement is novelty and make people more attention.
The last one I like it is color, I will try but I am no sure I can finish this effect.
And I will try to learn about this effect in http://psdlearning.com/2008/07/cd-cover-design/

Jennifer Losch Bartlett (born March 14, 1941 in Long Beach, California) is an American artist. She is best-known for paintings combining abstract and representational styles.
Bartlett is best known for her paintings and prints of mundane objects—especially houses—executing in a style that combines elements of both representational and abstract art.








  In her works ,I feel comfortable and peace, I think the theme in her works is Optional and express. I do not know  abstract and representational styles well , but I know that these kind of works look easy but do it hard ,it seems like Disorderly painting but we also can see the theme and Specific things.Bartlett gives me a concept that when you try to finish a work ,you must follow your heart , you can not doing a work in order to just finish it. I think I will do works more random and attentively.




Jerico Santander, currently available for freelance or long-term contracts, is a Spanish illustrator and digital artist who beautifully represents the inventive world of post digital media.
Santander possesses a portfolio bursting with vibrant, dreamlike essence. Spilling layers of aesthetic appeal to every image he toils with, his use of salient color combinations, artistic composition and elegant originality amaze all his viewers.




In his works I see The combination of technology and natural, I think this is his theme too. He use Photoshop perfect to combine things which We usually can not think of can combined together.And his works inspire me to more observation of things around , and also Encourage me to learn more about Photoshop. In my final project, I will try to combined more different things in different fields.
