Design Competition



This is the 2nd image for a pseudo jewelry shop. This is another image that I did in a photo shoot. I took photos of some jewelry pieces I have. From the original image, I selected two areas to highlight in the Estate Jewelry pieces. I kept them colorized by creating a new layer for each one and made a polaroid-style border around them. After that, I merged those layers and warped the image a little to make it look like photos are slightly dog-eared or turned up. Back to the original image, I converted it to gray scale and adjusted the levels, followed by reducing the opacity to 90%. The logos of "Pieces of Me" and "Brown's" were both done in Illustrator.

Peppers




Through Adobe Illustrator, I recreated this image using a variety of tools in Illustrator. I have included both the original file and the recreated file for comparison.

  • The primary tool used was the pen tool. I made adjustments with the Direct Anchor Tool to smooth out areas.
  • In several areas, I created a gradient look using the Mesh tool.
  • I also painted in areas using the Blob Brush Tool.
