I took both of these photos as action shots in some sort of way. The first one is of a junior in high school talking on her cell phone sitting in the hallway. The second is of a guy named Cameron playing the guitar... If you have noticed in a lot of my photos you will notice the different angles I use to make the picture more interesting...
Every single time I look at this picture it turns from funny to hilarious in about .02 seconds. There is something about this picture that reminds me of the Geico commercials, you know the ones that say "so easy a cave man can do it.." It is hilarious what you can find on the internet these days! Honestly I can't tell you why.. it's just one of those things!
I honestly found this project the most entertaining simply because it shows how creative you can be with the limitations you are given. For this cubecraft project I got my inspiration from a youtube video called "The Stash." If you have never watched it, it is a snowboarding video with these wooden figures that look like sasquatch.. however throughout the video you see that there is someone in a costume that looks just like the wooden figures.. This is where I got my inspiration.
This was the second sketch using that pad.. It was honestly kind of tough trying to figure out what I was going to do in the beginning however I found a design based off of my hat. I took this design and altered it into my own creation.. by color, stars and also by adding a bear as the main focus of the piece. I love the contrast of the warm and cool colors. The bear was just something I thought would be kind of fun and edgy.. so I added it.. anyways I feel as though its and overall successful piece.
This is just a quick sketch I did after halloween.. This was the first time I have ever used that sketch pad! I started with creating the ghost.. then added the tree and the moon.. I wanted to add more to the sketch however I felt as if it was going to be to chaotic.
If you have ever surfed, ridden a snowboard, or have been wakeboarding, or anything of the sort, then you know the pain and brutal experience of a wipeout! I tried to capture that feeling in this piece by creating a washed out effect for surfing wipeouts. The thing that really captures your attention would probably be the guy pulling a christ air while bailing off his surf board getting ready to experience the pain of a belly flop. Oh the belly flop, we have all encountered one of those in our lifetime, am I wrong...
What to say other than Chuck "The Iceman" Liddell is the freakin man! In this movie poster I wanted to show how much of a badass Chuck Liddell truly is. I took warm and cool colors and contrasted them in the background creating a split personality sort of feel to the piece. If you hadn't noticed the main focus of the piece is not "The Iceman" himself, but his fist. He may be old but he can still pack a punch when you mess with the wrong side of the caged octagon.
It's crazy to see how you can take the same image and distort it and make it original by simply messing with the hue, saturation, and contrast. Im sure you if you noticed I took a picture from a previous blog and simply made it more simplistic by altering the three distortions.
