Sketchbook Evaluation 2
I choose this page because I spent a lot of time on it and I liked how it turned out. I just used a mechanical pencil to create the drawing, I started to watercolor it but it's not done and I honestly like it better without color. I was really happy because for the last nine weeks, I really tried to make sure I actually worked hard on every page and I did but because of this I ran out of time and I didn't get to color them. I think if I choose less complex things that still looked good it would be easier to turn things in completed.
Lester Beall
I was an american graphic designer notable as a leading proponent of modernist graphic design. I mainly use bold, primary colors and illustrative arrows and lines in a graphic style. My use of typography was also praised in the U.S as well as other places. I was born in Kansas City, Missouri and attended the University of Chicago.
Design 2 Evaluations Part 2
I choose to highlight this page because I enjoyed drawing it the most. It was fairly easy to draw compared to the rest of my pages yet it has some detail to it. To create this image, I used pencil to draw it out, then a black ball point pen to trace over the pencil lines, then continued to color it in colored pencils. My page is about a video game called League of Legends, it has multiple characters available to play and I decided from the beginning of the year that I would draw every single one of them in alphabetical order. I honestly didn't apply any knowledge from art or design into these pages. For most of my projects I spend time thinking hard about what I want to paint or draw and why. Doing sketchbook pages is one of the only times I get to draw, paint, sketch (etc) what I want to so I really just did this for fun. I did not try any new techniques on this page. I feel that when people see this page they will either say something along the lines of "thats really cool, I love that game" or "what is this...."
