Geometric and Organic Shapes

For this assignment, we created organic and geometric shapes. For the organic shapes, they are very smooth and curvilinear as opposed to geometric shapes, which are sharp and straight. In addition, I used value with color to create a gradient in each of these pieces. By adding white and black, I changed the colors to different tints and shades of the same color family. The further away the color was from the center, the more intense the color got. I created shades of the different colors by adding black, and I made tints by adding white.

CRAFT: For craftsmanship, I think I paid attention to detail with the color choices by making sure that there was a wide range of different colors in the same color family.

MASTERY: I think I could have made the colors a little more solid, just because the strokes from the paintbrush were visible. I also think I should have snipped off some of the white areas a little better as well.

RELATE: This assignment is very similar to the assignment where we painted the grayscale onto the strip of paper by just because we added black and white to create value. Adding black made a shade, and adding white made a tint.
