Virginia Festival of Fine Arts Poster

For this project, we had to make a poster for the Fine Arts Festival. There was certain information that we needed to include on the poster as well as the picture that was selected for this year. We worked in partners to complete this project, my partner being the infamous John Wilder. It was a pretty easy and fun project to do. Here is what we came up with for our poster:

250 Years of Charlottesville

This was for our midterm project and it was to represent Charlottesville. For my project, I started out by doing a clipping mask of the rotunda in the words 'CVILLE' and a picture of the blue ridge mountains behind it. I then decided to try and put an effect on the background and I did a mosaic tile pattern. I them tried to make the letters a little different and I ended up putting a different picture in each letter. It was actually a pretty fun project. Here is all three of the versions I did.

Designs on Paper--Photo Card

In the spirit of the holiday season, this project was to create a photo card. Instead of going mainstream and creating a Christmas or Holiday card or New Year's Card, I went with making a card for a less well known holiday. This holiday is called Appreciate a Dragon day and occurs on January 16. I made a card for my friend, John Wilder. I got some pictures of dragons and wrote a little note on the card. It was a pretty fun project just because it was so obscure of a holiday!

NOH8 Campaign Poster

For this project, we worked in partners to make a NOH8 Poster for the GSA Campaign at our school. My partner, John Wilder, and I, made a poster featuring a girl named Mackenzie. We put her picture in the top right corner and then made a border around the other three sides. We then put the campaign info on the bottom and a quote on the right side. I think that it turned out well and it was actually a pretty fun project to do.
