Series of Greeting Cards. 

materials used is a hand made sisal strings paper which is put together in different colors, card boards not so thick not so thin which is shiny and  off -  whitish color. 
As for the envelopes are hand made as well , picked each color accordingly and ribbons and cotton wool  for decorations  .  first i cut them into the shapes , then using super glue i stuck them on the card board. in order to give it a 3D effect i doubled each papers.  additional decorations for the sock , i used cotton wool giving it that xmas look and blue slim ribbon for the birthday boxes . As for the  texts the fonts i used normal hand writing in order to maintain the theme of hand made.  simple colored pens can be used for texts.

assignment 7b - group work - color wheel.

COLOR WHEEL.
A color wheel is an organization of color hues around a circle , showing relationships between colors considered to be primary colors, secondary colors , complementary colors etc. the wheel also shows more and more mixtures between the colors, such as red- orange , yellow - green and so on . therefore a color wheel shows the relationship between colors accordingly.
                                                 

                                                          INITIAL IDEAS.










we finally came up with this idea of making a ape man like and a bubble but with a zig zag pattern . 
and also to show our colour transition from left to right in a up to down zig zag way. 
we used wood and we sprayed it white in color to let the colors stand out. to give it a rough  texture we used rice . we first glued the rice and then painted them accordingly.  and we mounted it with a black frame to give the rectangle shape.

colour - assignment 7A

COLORS











                           



I chose the subject matter to be a face. and i also decided to do it manually as i wanted to see what it would look like  when using cool colors and warm colors .
from this activity i learnt the hue concept . also the different shades of colors.
however , being more particular on mounting the work including spacing would give it much better effect. note: when mounting anything using spray glue is much preferable results to neat work without leaving any unstuck part of the paper.

FonTS - exercise





I have learnt that , for every color there are different meanings to it , and therefore the fonts we use are related to it as well.  however in design i  feel it is very important to know what does each colour represent in order to come out with great designs .


Taking the first page ,
 The first word which is BROWN in color , this color represents stability calmness, cousy . therefore i have represented it using the font - zeyada, and the word used here is " comfortable''
next word is Cinderella, i have represented this in PINK  and the font used is Janda Fabulous. as pink represent feminine , cuteness and so on , i have used a fancy ,girlish like font for it . 
the third word one this page is my name ALYA, i have used YELLOW colour to represent it , because yellow shows cheerfulness , attracts attention and more, and i feel out of all the colours this one is quite good.  and the fonts  i have used is A Charming Font Expanded.


Second page , 

The first word is passionate which is shown by the color REDwhich shows different emotions like love ,  dangerous ,  power and so on, and the fonts i used here is elizajane.
The second word is confidence , i used the colour BLUE to represent it , because this colour shows boldness, trustworthy , serenity and so on .  the fonts i used for this is Empire State NF.
and last word on this page is elegance , i have used  BLACK because this shows sexiness, stylish , black also makes people look slimmer,  maturity and formal . the font i used for this is Louvaine.


Third page .

The first word is Innocence this is represented in WHITE which shows purity , see it as angels. and so on , the fonts used are elizajane2.
The next word is witch craft which is represented by PURPLE which shows mystery , magic , and so on. the font used here is YouMurderer BB.
The last word on this page is depression which is represented by GREY which shows dull, low profile like thing . the font here used is  Haettenschweiler.
To conclude , through this exercise i have learnt about each colour and their meanings. how they reflect on different emotions and how the fonts are used according to that .

This  paper cut art work shows symmetrical and balance composition , i used pink colored paper on a black mounting board to complement it ..  and the design  i used for this is just random pattern that came into my mind  while making this  work .

PAPERCUT ART 2









This piece of work shows space and dominance , i have used different colors to make it look bright and eye catchy , i used a black moth with yellow  to make it look outstanding . and i also tried to make it look 3D , by sticking the middle part on the board leaving the petals hanging . 







Rule of third-Shoes
