Pyramid!

My Vacation at the Pyramids of Giza

For my Insertion project I first looked for a photo of myself that was posed in front of scenery. The picture I found was myself in front of the original olympic stadium in Greece. Then I knew I wanted to place myself in a picture that was sunny and warm because of the sun and shadows on my body. I have always wanted to go to Egypt so I thought of the pyramids. The sun on the left side of the pyramid worked well with the sun on the left side of my body. I tried my best to make the images blend but I am still trying to get the hang of photoshop!

Pointe Shoes

Graceful

For this project I knew I wanted to do something that related to dance. I instantly thought of a photograph I had taken during my freshman year photo class. At first I was able to do the legs with ease using the mesh tool and I thought the entire project was going to be a breeze! Then once I reached the shoes with the ribbon I got so confused. I finally realized I had to do each part of the foot separately. Once I began taking more time for each section it all worked out. I really like how it came out!

Business Logo Design

For my logo I wanted to stay with the idea of simplicity. I originally had a sketch with just the word "icing" and cupcake frosting as the top of the "i." With my new design I hoped to include more so that the logo would stand out as both cupcakes and cocktails. I wanted this logo to be visible and recognizable from far away. When I found this font with the highlight on each letter it made the logo look more fun, which is what I would want from a cupcake and cocktail bar. Adding the martini glass as the other "i" made it easy to see drinks were also involved. As for the color, I chose teal because it is my favorite color and I think teal, black, and white look classy and modern together, which is what I would hope for with the decor of my bar. I added the tagline as well so that on the front of the building when driving or walking by it would be know instantly.
