Digital Imagery - Color and Form (Using Photoshop Suit)


Digital Imagery



With the help of Digital Cameras and Photoshop Suit, my students create great art pieces, demonstrating excellent use of the program and using to the max the photos taken with a very regular camera. 



We are looking at:
  Direccion
  Depth
  Repetition
  Contrast
  Form
  Color
  Use of the Space

Students are to be aware and understand:
  Pixels (pictures elements)
  Color Gradation
  RGB
  Dimensions (expressed by pixels)
  Resolution (PPI - Printing good)

Students study and applied depth - perceiving these depths through shapes in order to keep viewers vision active. Seeing means grasping some outstanding features of objects,
like; the color of the sky, the curve of the long tree, the rectangularity of the object to the right, and so on. 

Depth comes from the correct use of the Principals of Art and Design. Through the manipulation of size, hue, focal points, gravity, hierarchy, and repetition. Now, the clever part here is to be completely aware of the space, an electronic flat space has really different characters than a piece of paper. 

Visual Solutions can be "practical" or "pragmatical" and in the majority of the cases, the good cases, you have both working sides by side.




The cameras were quite simple, although the picture has to be adequate for the task in mind, the manipulation has to happen by the correct use of the program.





The Color and Shapes
Expanding space in the search for depth




Students learn to use form and color
creating contrast and the power of the lines
in order to create an imaginary 3D art piece




Images are to be clean, 
balance with or without asymmetrical precision.
Controlling the chaos and inviting the viewer to the story.

Percepciones Significativas en La Visualización del Arte y el Diseño - Parte 1ra

Percepciones Significativas en La Visualización del Arte y el Diseño Parte 1 “Fuerzas Psicológicas” Nuestro alrededor está completamente sobrecargado, bombardeado de imágenes compuestas de color, líneas, formas, figuras y texturas, en espacios planos o 3 dimensionales y que se les ha dado el nombre de “Los Elementos del Arte y del Diseño” por muchos años.  Estos Elementos Artísticos están manipulados por una serie de factores que se les llama "Los Principios del Arte” y que son directamente utilizados y manipulados en la construcción del trabajo visual. Los Principios dan sentido, sentimientos, temperatura, dirección, movimiento y valores a los Elementos.   Podríamos decir que los Elementos son la materia prima y los Principios son las herramientas que hacen de esa materia prima una obra completa.  Cómo entonces es posible que el artista o Diseñador pueda controlar todas estas partes constitutivas y entenderlas correctamente para así ejercer el control de su obr

Triptych - The Meaning of 3 of Us in One Element and More

The Triptych  Students need to work together towards one tell, one element of unity, and 3 in one composition. So the viewer looks from one panel to the next, in order to come to terms with how the art speaks to them and  how they can appreciate three different artworks in one composition. The colors of the three pieces of art keep the artwork interesting.  Students can alter the colors and transition within each of the pieces during  the making of the art This way students are to: U se an overhead projector, to outline the contour of their head/face (Siluet) over poster papers (420mm x  297mm.) S tudents write about their likes, challenges, happiness, or own events.   W hat makes one unique and amazing. L ooking closer at the story they choose meaningful colors    T o then use the elements as lines or shapes permitting the expression of feelings or meanings. S tudents make connections using color, lines, shapes, and repetition to help and  unif
