Self-Evaluation

In my artwork, I did not edit much on my photo because of want to keep my artwork in originality. Basically, I had learn to use different tools to make my artwork looks more attractive and I should have learn more other tool edit it; however, I feels not much comfortable on my artwork because it is almost like a printer to print all the picture we had in website resources. On the other hand, I had learn a lot of way to use the tools just like my classmate in intro to design class.

Self-Evaluation

From this 18 sketches, I realize there is quite important for us to know that how does color can make the picture more sharp and impression. Besides that, there is require a lot of creativity and imaginative thought to generate the idea to draw a sketches. Firstly, I do not know anything about communication series but I do know a lot of different communication style such as family communication, animal communication, and human communication after I had explored form the websites. Color and drawing skill are playing an major role in this section because it require a lot of work to coordinate the eye and hand movement to complete the task-oriented however I learned a lot of way to apply the color.
