Ps HW 3

 


The fact that this picture is an artwork makes it extremely difficult to include yourself in. A major obstacle to a smooth integration are the small details and complexities that the original artist carefully created. Without the artist's knowledge, it is extremely challenging to try to capture their vision and method. Furthermore, there is an additional level of complexity due to the tape-crafted elements. It is difficult to alter without compromising the quality of the artwork because every tape placement is carefully considered and performed. The assignment requires not only technical mastery but also a thorough comprehension and appreciation of the original work. The attempt to Photoshop oneself into this piece of art ultimately calls for a degree of skill and expertise that goes beyond simple editing.


This image's simplicity is incredibly motivating because it uses little detail to express a lot of meaning. Its realistic appearance and calm ambience encourage reflection, making the viewer consider the subject's ideas. The composition's modest style highlights the power of subtlety in art and serves as an excellent example of the phrase "less is more." The image demonstrates how restraint may highlight beauty and force through its subdued yet powerful presence. It proves the great influence of minimalism and serves as a reminder that sometimes the most interesting stories come from the in-between lines.













It was the caption that made everyone giggle, "Yes, Sir." These few words brought up a flood of memories, mirroring my own habit to use them, frequently with a comparison, when I'm frustrated or irritated. It was a lighthearted reminder of my unusual behaviors as a person and the people I cross paths with that could set me off. A familiar dynamic that resonated with personal experiences was captured by the interaction of the person's expression and the caption. Scenes like this demonstrate the ability of imagery to make people laugh and reflect by drawing realistic connections to their own actions and interpersonal relationships.


I am a Pisces, so producing this underwater picture is really important to me. Beneath the waves, it represents not only my astrological sign but also a strong bond with water, encapsulating my own being. A deep feeling of belonging combined with a touch of playfulness drives the desire to recreate this kind of image. Along with being a fun project, it also offers me a chance to be authentic and accept the wealth and mobility that come with it. I want to use this recreation to honor my Piscean side and create a visual depiction of my journey for satisfaction and self-awareness.

From the outset, navigating through the intricacies of Adobe Illustrator to the nuanced editing features of Photoshop, and the layout finesse of InDesign, each phase of this course presented its own hurdles and triumphs. Throughout this demanding course, I've encountered moments of struggle and growth, from the initial learning curve to mastering advanced techniques.

Business Card

Using InDesign, I was able to incorporate deep symbolism into each design to create personal business cards that truly reflected who I am. The first card represents the light I bring into people's lives; it has a captivating eye. My presence brings joy and support, much like the eye is a window to the soul. The vivid green color represents my name, Jaide, like the priceless Jade stone. The second card, with the initials "JG," pays tribute to my ancestry and my great-great-grandmother's name Georgiane. Finally, the third card's bright blue color represents my zodiac sign, Pisces, which is a sensitive and adaptable water sign. These cards were mostly created by hand using InDesign's rectangle tool to create the color backgrounds. In order to achieve the ideal colors and make sure every shade had the intended meaning, the Adobe Color Wheel was essential. Using the fill Gradient tool to provide depth and dimension, the second card's design was a particularly ...

Calligramme

- Jaide Edwards Embracing that I am a Pisces, I am unique because of the difficulties I faced as a baby due to my brachial plexus, which shaped my life from the beginning. Despite experiencing chronic pain, my disability inspired a strong will and led me to pursue a career for public relations and journalism. I tried to incorporate the Pisces symbol into my artistic expression while exploring ways to set it apart from the traditional interpretation. This graphic depiction not only conveys the astrological essence but also the courage that comes from overcoming adversity in life. Using Illustrator on adobe design software, I created this profound graphic that represents my path as a Pisces. With the anchor pen tool, I carefully sketched the picture. Precise sentence arrangement was made easier by the direct selection tool, which improved the visual storytelling. By utilizing the type on path feature, I was able to include text into each layout with ease and create a coherent story. Usin...
