week 2 "prepare" artist chosen introduction


 he was an illustrator whose work lives on in the memories of generations of Americans who read and loved Little Golden Books. This particular book with its wonderful and funny pictures, Little Peewee or, Now Open The Box was written by Dorothy Kunhardt in 1934, but illustrated by Miller as a Little Golden Book in 1948. 
Why that image inspired you
Only I can say the reason I choose this artist work, it is let me remember my childhood, and it is just like child dawning, colorful and lovely.
What aspects of that artist's work you intend to incorporate in your own efforts
I think only I can do it is try to make the act funny and cute.




It is time to post the second word "prepare".

First, we should know what it is "prepare" about. The word prepare is used as a verb. It has its origin in Latin and is taken from the word prepare. Old French adapted it preparer and as prepare by Middle English. When someone prepares something, he is said to make it ready or arrange it. For example: their teachers prepared the students for the tests. Prepare could also mean to put together or mix various substances or elements to form something different. It could also mean 'to manufacture or compound.' For example: He prepared a sweet dish for his mother. He made it ready for someone or something.

Prepare could also mean 'to fit out or equip'. For example: he prepared the car for the forest trip. It means that he fitted the necessary things into the car and fuelled it. In musical context, prepare is to lead to a pitch and soften the impact. Example: he was prepared for the interview. Here, prepare is used intransitively.

Here it is some idea come from:

The frog prepared to catch the bug.
He wants prepared to add some furniture
It could also mean 'to manufacture or compound. For example: He prepared a cake for his mother.

In there I try to think about to prepared to the race, the three letters it is means to count down, and then people speed up to run out, and large space to show it is a big race.
FINAL

This it is I try to make the image, like which he did, make like child dawning, hopes the act it is fun and cute.





Note: take some comments for those post, I don't know what I did it is ok or not, almost what I did just an Illustration.

In here, maybe I will post something new on my Tuesday class.

After, there will post final, or maybe thought something new and post here.


FINAL
Still same idea for the footprint, but used Richard small image idea    




Show work in progress and explain my working process.

First, we should know the word "grounded" what it is meaning   as the word, it has so many meaning. Grounded is said of truth or ground realities which have been established or proved and which have been in existence for a long period of time. A child or a teenager is grounded by his or her parents as a form of punishment. Grounding a child or teenager is defined as placing restrictions (for a short period of time) on the normal movements or privileges he or she is entitled to. A person is said to be grounded if he is down to earth and does not have an ego problem.

Above of three drafts it is to explain the word "grounded" what it is meaning and create three pictures of the word. First, it is a child lock at home by someone, second, some logos to show because the road problem, the plane it is "grounded". Third, just show feet with some footprint so show steps with no problem, a grounded step

week 1 "grounded" artist chosen introduction
Richard Gates
This smallish 1954 hardcover, discarded by the Hamilton School Board library department, is the sort of thing that really transports me back to Grade One. The crinkle of the plastic-wrapped dust jacket, the smell of aging glue and paper, and most importantly, Richard Gates' stylized illustrations, all remind me of when I first glimpsed, through books like this, an impossibly perfect Davey-and-Goliath world that seemed to have existed a decade before my birth.
Gates employs an interesting technique I haven't been able to entirely figure out. Is it part crayon resist? Part silk screen? Watercolour with drizzled rubber cement?
Whatever it is, he manages to achieve a lot of fantastic colour layering that needs to be seen at full size to be truly appreciated.
Of course, there's absolutely no information to be found on Richard Gates, but the back flap of the dust jacket suggests he illustrated quite few "True Book(s) of..." for Childrens Press of Chicago so with any luck, I may turn up more of his unique and wonderful work.

Why that image inspired you
Used small image to the front, and large image to the background, this idea inspired me, and the idea easy knows what the idea, what's the target to. Also, at first you need to catch the eyes. And to see the small image as much as like logo first, and then go though the background, we find what they want to say, to send massage. There it stronger eye contrast, eye follows.
What aspects of that artist's work you intend to incorporate in your own efforts
His idea it is more powerful and useful for many design works, the idea to use small image to the front and large image to the background, catch you eyes at a point, and go though the point, we seen the big picture, as he want to say "trees give us fruits." I think I have learned it is this idea, I would think how to use it in some project.

Hello!  This is my new blog and I'm going to show you my graphic designs here.




Ok, here it is the time to post the design assignment on Monday class. This it is assignment about international women day.





In this three color image which it was I chosen from AI parker, I chosen those image because it is complete to show up that how women happy and beautiful.











Above of them, it is my idea about international women day. First draft it is about title what it is look like, think about fonts and space what they want use. Then, in the second page, it is the main body will looks like, here I get three idea, first it is like what I chosen that three peoples, one women, one young lady, and a girl, and the action it is they are dancing in ballet, and second idea just simple, three different happy smile face with three kind jobs, and many flowers around face, but there are not good idea, but go thought of them, I have idea came out, well, still three women, in three really representative women jobs: teacher, business women, and house wife. Although, they are not any famous people, but I think if it is for international peoples, that means to all the people, all women, not just for some one, so I chosen this three women's job because it is sample to show how women's life, and those three group peoples in the social it is more big than any others.

Well, there it is a question, if like what I did and the end to say, or to introduction something, it is easy use software to do that, but as you say we will do it on paint, then how can I make the fronts?
