A Look Into My World





Inside thisHUGEbrain o mine, I havean ampleamount o IDEAS, inwhich I planto makethose ideasACTIONS.

I am a stylis t, event plan-ner, event decorator, inte ri-or designer, fr iend , daughter,big sister, mentor, girlfr iend

and fashionista . I am anOVER ACHIEVER. I put mybest foot forward in EV-

ERYTHING I do. I am fnallyon my way to making “My

passion, my paycheck”.=)

WhoI AM...





Who would have know?

Certainly, not I?, That you

can create complete draw-ings out of just lines. The

pictures in surroundenceare of just that, LINES. As

apart of a Computer Graph-ics homework assignment,

I successfully created vedrawings, (three of whichPicture o a tall Drinking Glass

Picture o a largre Tea Cup

Picture o a Juice Bottle

are shown) with lines only.

WAIT, There’s more!!!

We were only allowedto use, 100 lines...YES

you read right, only100!!!! Don’t believe

me, count for yourself.




The BlueprThe Blueprint 10

In contrast to the drawings

on the previous page, thesedrawings were all created

with VALUE in mind. With

these three drawings, I re-ally focused on the viewer

seeing the darkness andlightness of each specic

object. To do this I usedhand smudging, along with

some overlaying of shades

from light to dark. I wanted

the viewer to see the depth of the object. To do this, I made

sure to include the top of theobject, in a oval type shape,

in which I used smudgeshading to darken certain

areas so they could see ex-actly how deep I could see

into the objects. Moreover,

I wanted the viewe

to see the differenshades and values of

the three drawings

The Blueprint 12 The Bluepr




Craft:Using my hand, a computer mouse, a

Mac Desk Top, and Adobe Illustrator I created different stages of the bowl

above. Using the Pin Tool, and theBlack Move area, I created styles of

lines, differentiating in depth, width,

thickness, and length. To create atype of volume to this cup, I used

different strokes of lines, some goingin circular motion while others where

either going vertically or horizontally.For shading I used different hues of

green and red, to illustrate the areasthat were dark and light on the origi-

nal object. To get the images pub-lished I took multiple screen shots

of my screen, and emailed them to

myself. From there, I opened andsaved them to my desktop, where

I took the images from to upload tothis blog.

DrawingWith LinesUsing Hues of Color

DrawingWith Lines

With this Adobe Illustrator createdimage, I really focused on the view-

ers seeing the darkness and light-ness of this cup using tints, and

shades, better known as Grays,blacks and whites. To do this I used

the paint dropper tool along withsome overlaying of shades, and hues

of gray. I also wanted the viewer to

see the depth and volume of theobject. To do this, I carefully con-

structed each line so that it couldform the shape of the object with-

out creating a border line. In theareas that are darker, I also made

sure to highlight them with a lightcolor so that one could see exactly

how deep the objects were.

Using Tints and Shades




What you are looking at tothe left, is my first attemp

at drawing with shapes.This was an in class as-

signtment, that I didn’t get a chance to finish, bu

as you can see from mydrawing and the original

photograph, I was certainly on my way to depicting

the shoe in a very much

realistic way





After much practice, anda couple of indecisive de-

sions, I finally completedmy assignment. Below

you will find, my realistic

copy of the original photo-graph I decided to use for

this project, which is above.




From Start To Finish

For the first draft of this

project, I did a basic reco-lition of my original phto-

graph. I was not trying toadd too much detail, but I

infact did.

For my second draft, I did

some brief touch ups, of the first draft. I took great notes

while participating in an in-class critique, so I was able to

change specific things that mypeers felt would strengthen my

project, such as the backgor-und.

As I did for the second draft,

I again, reviewed some of thepoints my peers made regard-

ing my piece, and continuedto correct them. For instance,

on my first draft, the circlesaround the red pump were

very uneven, and not com-pletely smooth. For my third

draft, I corrected this by using

the Ellispe tool, to create smallcircles and ovals.

Finally, after reviewing many o

the notes my peers suggestedI change and after much prac-

tice, I came up with somethingthat was very much close to th

original photograph. Creatingmore sparkles on the phone,

fixing the background color antexture along with fine tuning

any lines all played apart in

making this drawing what it is.For most of my corrections an

revisions I used the same toolswith the exception of the Grad

ent tool, and Texture tool.

A Look Into My World




I am a Creator Creating art each day

Finding different ways toexpress myself

Without a Word to sayIn light comes dark

Shadowing my brushTo design what I please

Pleasantly, no rush

I’m a loner, a poet A fashionista much moreFrom music to stories

Nothing I do ever bores

Surrounded by angelsGuiding my feet

To that place withinWhere I shall meet

I am an artist A Creator each day

In all that I doIn all that I say

That artist withinWho hides alone

Who stands on her feet All on her own

In the silence a voice

So softly descends,Bringing forth the artist The artist within

I am Heaven Synt Standing out in a crowd.Silently making my debut

Leaving a trail LOUD
