Today was another GREAT day… came in thinking I was all ready to start a new project, maybe even something for me and Mr. Magers decided that the flyers just were not working out. I was not disappointed or aggravated because I knew whatever it was it would be minor. Because we had done these flyers like 4 times already. He just wanted me to move some things around on the page so that it would not feel so “cluttered” to him. Honestly I thought it was a little cluttered myself but it had all the info he wanted put into a more artistic eye catching layout. I’m having a hard time not working in color because I cannot contrast and fade those colors. I feel like its limiting my ability to be the creator of perfection. I have realized that it is actually helping my ability to work with color because with the absence of color you can envision what might be there and use grays, black and white to portray those colors. I am having a good time making these flyers because I can see them hanging all over the school and even though nobody knows I did them I know that its my work on the walls. It feels like people are actually taking notice and it feels good to be recognized when you have been the kid who sits in the back of the class your whole high school career. Guess I’m just expressing myself through my art.
