This excersize was very helpful in understanding different sizes. Uploading different jpeg sizes helped me to see what still looks good at a reasonable size....GIFS, however were a lot more fun to play with because when i messed with them, the image was completely transformed.

Recolor

Balloons underwater
Caulene softer


Caulene inspired by Wallace Nutting and the 90's

I really really liked recoloring these images. They look completely different from the originals, and it was fun to see what they turned into. The girl in these images is my sister who had brown hair when these photos were taken (now her hair is red) and dark brown eyes. I turned her into two completely different people. The balloon images is a photo taken under water with brilliant colors. I turned it into something muted. I like making things different.

Autoscapy

Scanned!

This project was very fun! It let me be goofy and scan my face all smushed against the scanner. It was fun to apply the filters and distort the images until you couldnt tell they came from a scanner.

1st Attempt at Photoshop

1st attempts at photoshop

Photoshop was very difficult for me at first since i didnt really understand layers and the purpose of them. After I messed up a few times, I kinda got the hang of it. It will be very helpful in editing my images, especially of sculptures I have done. It turned out to be fun to edit and warp images that still looked good at the end.

ASCII 1

Self Portrait

ASCII was very very time-consuming. It wasn't necessarily very hard for me, but it was very meticulous. It was easy for me to recognize the different value areas since I love to draw and have taken a drawing class. It turned out pretty neat and looks a lot harder than it actually was.

Me! and First Feelings

Post your first feelings or comments about the syllabus of the class in it. Also post a brief description telling me who you are and telling me what you expect from this class

Wow! This class sounds like a big challenge, and that is exactly what I am looking for! I am so excited about this class because it is completely different from any kind of art I have worked with. I feel like it will help me as an artist because it will open up a door to new experiences and media. I love to learn, and this will offer me the perfect opportunity to learn and apply a lot of different technology. I hope to meet each assignment and problem that I may face with a different perspective and unique way of solving it. The critiques in class will also be beneficial because I will be able to give my opinion as well as hear those of my classmates. Reading the syllabus has encouraged me to feel like I will be challenged, and that it will also give me the opportunity to learn new techniques that will benefit my abilities and allow me more freedom as an artist. I can't wait for Wednesday!!!

 My name is Hannah, and I am on the University of Tampa swim team. I have competed and excelled at the national level, and I enjoy every minute of it. My major is Art Management with double minor in studio art and art history.  I have taken only one "technology" class. ART211 honors. I have mostly focused on sculpture and I really love it! I am also really interested in video installation mixed with sculpture. I am excited for this class to open my eyes and allow me to experiment mixing digital arts with sculpture.
