Example # 234 of Techonology Hating Me.

Our last project for Illustration 1 was an open assignment. HOO-RAH. I wanted to represent the major spells cast (in the musical version of Wicked), and take another opportunity to mess around with Painter. I was going to add in the 'ruby slippers,' but couldn't find a placement that didn't seem really awkward.BLAHBLAHBLAH




So the colors on this are CRAZY! Not at all what I started with. EVERYTIME I saved the file all of the colors would get washed out. I'd go back in, adding back where I could, and then BAM. Washed out even more. I don't get it. No matter what I saved it as the file still ended up getting modified without my consent. That bg color? That was once a nice golden yellow. I never changed it.





.....harumph.

For Intro to GIC we were to create a 2 posters for an event, one image-based, a one type-based. It was pretty funny presenting my idea to the class. No one had turned in their ideas ontime, but i had done thumbnails for mine, so the teacher took it to a class vote to decide if he'd let me slide or make me do the default MOMA poster. Thanks, class.

the teacher loved this one

Let's pretend it hasn't been FOREVER since I last posted.
