OVERALL

Overall , i think that my progression throughout the 'De Paul' Charity project has improved, due to my use of experimentation and sketchbook presentation. I also think that my work has become stronger and stronger on photoshop using the pen tool to create my inspired Shepard Fairey pieces . 

Final piece.


On this page i have decided to use Photoshop and create a pen tool outline of alex (class mate). On this page i have printed and stuck down the stages of how i have created my art work.

This is my first final piece of the inspired Shepard Fairey art work. In this piece i had picked my own colours and and my own tagline i have come up with in my sketchbook. I chose this tagline because it relates back to the mission statement, "BREAK FREE FROM YOUR OLD LIFE" this tagline has symbolism to the mission statement because it helps people buold a positive future and in order to achieve a postive future u need to let go or break free from your old past or life. 

However , i have then made another illustration this time i have used Shaheim (class mate) as my model. I made Shaheim hold my constructed Modroc pieces agaisnt his face to seem like he is breaking out , so i took a picture and placed it on a page for stages and then went over the image using the pen tool to create a Shepard Fairey illustration. 

This is my second final piece inspired by Shepard Fairey, on this page i then also chose and picked the colours/taglines. 

Finally, this is my third fianl piece.
Overall , all my final piece posters reflect to the mission statement because they all answer the quote of "helping someone build a postive future" all my illustration posters have a good reflection on building and creating a new life and future.

Gate Sculptures

On these pages i have created a number of sculptures made out of different media's, i have used Modroc , pencils , masking tape and also acrylic paint and ink. The first sculpture is a closed gate made from modroc and then painted and splattered with ink and acrylic paint.

This is a sculpture of the open gates symbolising freedom , also to create this i have used modroc, acrylic paint and ink. 

This is my mini sculpture i have constructed out of pencils and masking tape.

Closed mini gate made out of pencils and masking tape. 

Gate desgin...

This is a gate that i had taken a photo of around where i live , i took this photo because it reminded me of the word 'Disadvantage' this also reflects back to the mission statement "To offer homeless and disadvantage people the oppurtunity to fulfill their potential and move towards a positive future" , underlining the word 'disadvantage' i used that to create some designs for my final piece. 

On this page i sketched out two sketchs of the gates, one closed gate and one open gate. The closed gates symbolises someone being trapped as for the open gate symbolises freedom and happiness...

Public advertising

These pieces of experimentations have been done to show how my work will look like in a public space/public transport. To do this i used Adobe Photoshop and a normal template picture from Google and just desgined my inspired image on top of the template. My initial idea was to make the public adverts as interesting and eye catching as possible , for example the use of: colour , layout , and composition on a page/template is really important. However i had to keep in mind that i needed extra space to add the De Paul Charity's logo in somewhere within my designs so i layed then all out in a way that everything is in the right proportion.
