Shapes Art Activity

           I believe the strongest technical aspect of this work is the how the shades of green are surrounded by the blues and purples. I believe it attracts you and the more you look, the more shapes your will see. The transparencies make different shades if green and purple, and sometimes an orange. I think I could work on moving the circle counterparts better. I found it hard to incorporate some circles with the squares. Also maybe the symmetry and proportions of the squares.
          The easy part if this art activity was just placing the squares and making the overlap nicely. With the tools provided by photoshop, it's easy to line up the shapes and make it even. I found the difficult part was making all the colors work. I went with Jens and I's favorite color combination, Lime\Neon green with vibrant shads of blues and purples. Adding orange or red through off the whole image but the colors that make the shades, make the orange work. Also found it difficult to add circles to my already dominated square image. The ovals left the black spaces but it's still proportionate.
          I demonstrated the objective in this art activity by mostly using squares with fill in ovals and circles. I made the in inner part more bright than the edges. I think these colors contrast good together  and when adding red, it messed up the feel. If I could do this activity again, I would try using more circles and warmer colors. This was a fun put together picture.

  1. Lime green works for me!! This is a very nice design. Love the repetition of shapes and colors. Purple and yellow always look good together. The opacity changes add depth and create a wider variety of interesting shapes and values.
