Interior Design

Our very last assignment for our Color class was to design our own studio.  My dream jobs are to create my own cartoon show/aminated movies and be a voice actress, so I created my own animation studio and recording studio.

For my animation studio, I decided to make the walls baby blue so I could add some color to the studio, but not too much.  I kept the ceiling an ivory-like color and used the same colored flecked linoleum with blue flecks for the floor because I find it fitting for a studio such as this one.  I also placed where the animation lightboxes, stoyboard, and editing computers might go as well as designed the window with the logo of my future studio called "JAS-Z Productions."

For my recording studio, I left the walls to be a dark green and the ceiling to be sepia brown because I think of a dark scenery when I think of a recording studio.  I made the floors hardwood because I felt they were in great contrast with the walls.  I just left the window to be bright white to separate the light from the dark.

Color System

My next assignment right here was to create my own system of colors (almost like a rainbow and another grayscale).  I thought it would be really creative to make my own color wheel on Photoshop using the gradient tool.  I divided each color into separate slices where the base color would be in the middle, the shade would be on the edge, and the tint would be at the center.  As for the grayscale, I thought it would look pretty neat if I used it as the background of the rainbowed circle.


 

Color Study (Complimentary)

Here's the second half of my Color Study project where I had to choose a photo of a piece of artwork from a year between 1800-2010 and remake them into different ranges of color schemes.  For this one, I chose to work with Photoshop because it is a more modern tool to use that fits for this theme.  The photo I chose was a fruit painting by James Peale, published in 1824.

Color Study (Historic)

For this assignment, I needed to choose a photo of a work of art from any year between 25000 B.C.-1800 A.D. and remake them into different ranges of color schemes.  I chose "Tomb of Nefertari" made by the Egyptians from 1250 B.C. and used Prisma colored pencils because I believed that using a more traditional tool would add in with the theme of this half of the color study project.
