When working on this at first I had no idea of what to do. I started out doing the collaboration “Triangle Madness” because my instructor said it should look geometric but then I branched out to forming my own shapes from previous ones such as triangles, rectangles, and circles.
Working with flat color was really boring at first. There’s no real depth to it, but as I kept working with it I realized I could do a lot that I didn’t know I could by just changing the colors slightly to create a sort of depth. With the color choices I had it was pretty straight forward on the “Leap of Faith” picture. That one was depicting a specific scene so blue sky was necessary and a brown building so no real complications with color on that collaboration. The “Triangle Madness” picture was kind of weird. I originally had four colors in it consisting of red, orange, blue, and green, but than I started using opacity and lighting and darkening certain triangles. All of a sudden new colors were coming in. I don’t know if my colors go well together, and they probably don’t, but it was quite interesting to experiment with the color lightings and making certain ones negative and dissolve and luminescent. With the “Dessert Time” picture the colors were pretty straight forward on what each dessert was but when it came to the background I got a little crazy with different shades of pink and opacity of each circle. I felt like it needed to be cute looking since all the desserts were pretty cute themselves.
