blog 16



The feeling of being meticulous is shown in these floorboards.  They are relatively very uniform amongst each and laid every nearly straight with each other.  The person who put these down took time and care and it shows.  Now there are blemishes in it though.  It adds a little character to it though.

This is called Void Space which was created in 2014.  Lines are everywhere on this piece.  The piece as a whole has sweeping and jagged lines.  The piece as a whole is not uniform and seems to "flow" where it wants to.  A closer look shows the very uniform diamond/square form of the cardboard that makes up the piece.  This can be seen better in the picture below.

blog 17..

 

Using only lines show 4 emotions.  Joy is shown by looping lines and bright and cool colors.  Serene is shown by curving lines in the same direction as if a peaceful go with the flow.  Rage is shown with random lines in random direction.  Excited is much like rage but more in control and has some order.


The pecan pie has a sweetness to it but is interrupted by the nuttiness of the pecans throughout.  The peanut butter is smooth tasting but is slow to eat.  The spicy salsa starts slow and is amplified as it goes along as the spicy builds in your mouth.  Pot roast is savory and melt in your mouth.

The orange of Mercer Village sign shows sharp and curved lines.  It also has actual lines.

I personal found Shepard Fairey's work to be very interesting.  I found it interesting that he created the original Obama Hope poster.  His use of a lot of red puts a certain tone on a lot of this works.  I liked the image above the best out of all his works.

I found this on the back window of a car walking to class.  Balance and unity are used in this logo.  Unity comes from the same font being used and the size of the characters.  It is well balanced especially with the box surrounding it.

The designer I chose was Milton Glaser.  His best known work is shown above and is very recognizable.  I personally like the font used because it just seems to fit in the image.  I also like that the heart is the only color change in the image thus making it stand out and have emphasis on it.  And finally, I like the fact that it is simple yet effective.
