This is my WIP that I presented in class today, without any changes yet. I want to possibly add leave or flowers to the composition. Also, I now know that we can have a horizontal composition, so I may try to use the same technique on simply one word, like revolution. I'm going to add changing line widths as well.
This is close to my final concept for project 3. I split the eagle a little bit more, and also added the finger-hands trying to grasp the eagle and the off-shooting birds. The hands on the fingers are similar to the image of the eagle becoming smaller birds. I also put a cloud inside the eagle because I felt it was an effective use of color and implied sky. A displacement map was added over the entire thing to give the feeling of destruction.
This is an experimentation for our third project. I'm trying to show the idea of something strong and large made up of smaller, weaker, yet similar things.
Click to link to see the composition, DeviantArt won't let users imbed. I really like this piece because it's very much like what we're supposed to do. The background has been scanned it, the animals and elements have been collaged together, then printed and inking was added, then finally scanned in again and other elements added. It's a great work with good color and good composition.
I took this photo as a study for my drawing class, trying to see my grapes close up, and how they fit together. It's not the best photo, but I think it shows a lot of detail with a good depth of field.
