My class deals with graphics and the basics of working with Adobe Illustrator which I like, Adobe Photoshop (which is more difficult for me) and who knows what else. I'm starting to get the hang of the programs. It's a good class and I'm learning buckets. I'll put some of the exercises I've done for view.
I also entered an art show and the opening is Friday from 6-8. I'm going to try to go to it. With my leg being difficult these days it's always hit and miss. I love looking at other peoples works. The exhibit is for works 12X12 or smaller. They allowed me to enter one that was 11X14 which becomes 12X12 if you squint your eyes. I also finished another piece which I will post here. Photography takes time I'm discovered. Especially since I've been doing work on ETSY. I take 40 or 50 photos for that alone, editing them in Photoshop and then moving them to the shop. Very time consuming but hopefully worth it.
Alright so the visual I added wasn't exactly one for class. I will add one of those. This is a poster I did in response to the Occupy Austin support group for the Occupy Wall St. I used all the stuff I learned in class to make it so I feel pretty good.
I've learned a bit more since but I think I did okay.
I'm such a Luddite. (actually I'm a little more progressive than Luddite but you get my drift.)
In class if something can go wrong with my computer it will. My poor instructor is so very patient. I think he thinks I'm a bit humorous and well odd. he's right of course.......
