Vector Portrait

This image is a vector Portrait that I have designed of J Cole. This technique was made in Adobe illustrator using the pen tool; the technique involves shapes of parts of the artist's face using different colours to create the outcome. I found this process to be hard at times as there was a lot of mid tones and different colours after applying the poster effect. I was able to overcome this and and create the vector portrait in the way how I wanted the outcome to look. I think this poster can be improved with a little more detail to sharpen up the edges however I like the outcome and believe that it works well.

Textile Inspired outcome

This outcome is a Textile based outcome which has silhouettes of the Artist J cole Performing. The main Material in the silhouettes are Marbling sheets which were made using Inks; these were later scanned in and used in Photoshop to develop the outcome. the effects were very simple to produce and a negative to this was how hard it would be to create a aesthetic outcome. I was able to do this using another mean of textiles which was a button to create what now looks like a bubble effect in the background this helps as it presents the poster in a more summertime scene. I think to improve this image in the future I could use a wider range of colours and tones to bring out certain areas of the image a bit more.

Stencil inspired

These stencils are of that of Meek Mill the image is from his album cover Dreams and Nightmares that is set to be released this summer. I made an attempted use both CAD and hand made stencils I found that the hand made stencil that I made was more to do with negative space and I found that it brings interest to the image, as it presents a different perspective I also found that the outcome was made a little harder to recognise as a result of this more time is taken in to view the work and really get an understanding of what is really going on within the picture. the effects that I have used are spirals and dots these represent confusion/Nightmares the solid coloured areas represent the dreams he may have and how they are slowly taking over. I believe that this was a success because of what it represents and the looks of the outcome.

Typography Portrait Inspired

This is a creation that I made as a result of the Typography poster made of Rihanna. It is made from an image of J cole and the words feature some of his song Lyrics. The process of making this image was to Hue the saturation and create mid Tones I then created J. Coles song Lyrics as a brush Tool and painted the Lyrics into the image I had two outcomes that I liked and was torn between the 2 so I posted them both.
