Gift Cards : Part 1

Gift Card Design Challenge

After completing a tutorial or two on fonts and brushes, the computer art class was tasked with designing gift cards using a limited color palette and of course, custom brushes.

More Light Graffiti

Created these light graffiti paintings using a long camera exposure and some big, fat glow sticks. 

Light Graffiti

 

Stencils.. They're not just for breakfast anymore.. or, uh spray paint. They work really well when painting with light. This is our first round of light graffiti painting. The first three images were actually painted using a cellphone. The rest were painted with glow sticks.

 

Disney Mashup Magazine Cover!

Previously in Computer Art, we create a Disney Mashup. The next assignment the students got went something like this... 

Congratulations! Your Disney Mashup character just made the cover of a magazine! Which magazine? IDK, that’s your job! Here’s the assignment. 

Objective: Create a magazine cover for a target audience that features your Disney mashup character!

Green Art!

 

 

So much of what we hear about in art today is the talk of green art…. Recycled bottle projects and the like. Well, this project is truly green art. Birdseed Stencils!

We started this project today by creating a series of frames and placed them in the grass.

We filled the frames with what else? Fill dirt! Cheap fill dirt from my favorite place to purchase art supplies, Lowes Home Improvement.

 

Next we recycled our spray paint stencils. We placed them over the dirt then sprinkled them with birdseed.

Water well... and wait for it to grow!
