Artist Reflection

The strongest aspect of my work is the way I aligned the capital, cursive J's to form a heart. I then used different opacity's to create a faded look. This is the strongest aspect of my work because it adds detail to my work. The aspect in my work that I could improve upon is the location of the hearts because they were paced right near the center, but not directly in the center. I could improve upon this aspect by by moving each heart over to the right and maybe having the biggest heart go off the page just a little.

The easiest part of this project was choosing a color scheme because I just used different shades of similar blues, which made some colors pop and others fade. This also allowed for some letters to come in front of others. The most difficult part of this project was trying to figure out all the tools and actually getting the tools to do what you needed them to do.

I demonstrated the objective in this project by using contrast, alignment, proximity, and the rule of thirds in my project. I used contrast in my project by using different sizes of the letter J. I demonstrates alignment by placing multiple lower case J's in rows across the top and the left hand side. I used proximity by placing capital J's next to each other to create the appearance of a heart. I also demonstrated the rule of thirds by not placing anything directly in the center of the page. If I could do this activity again, I would explore more of the tools to create more effects on the page.
