Figure Tracing from Photograph

I am glad that I traced the figure drawings before this sketch because I was more familiar with the media. Tracing a figure is interesting because it is not about every detail, it is about the shape.

Figure Tracing from Figure Drawings

This was difficult because the media was an ink pen. I had to get used to the pressure I needed to use. With the figure tracing it was helpful to watch the paper with the figure drawn and not where your hand was moving. This was to see if the figure would come out the way it should.

Fruit Cross Section

This is a cross section of an apple and tomato. The apple was easier to draw from me because the shape was specific, but the tomato was difficult. I could improve on the line weights of pencil used, and work on my perspective. Light spots are hard for me to do because I try to draw them, but I need to think about what not to draw.

Shade and Shadow of a Room Corner

This is the corner of the lobby in my dorm building. I learned more about perspective with sketch. And the shading was a bit tricky, but you just have to keep sketching even if it looks weird at the beginning because the sketch will come together.

Resume

I was glad to revise the resume I had put together because creating graphics on the resume makes it more professional. I needed to reorganize my resume because I had not done so for a while. Through the reorganizing I realized the knowledge I have about my skills and experience. It was also interesting to work with my logo on my resume I will use.

My Logo Design

I am new to using Adobe Illustrator and this logo was a helpful process of learning how to use the program. I made several logo designs and the one above is one that I perfected. I made it in Illustrator and it took a lot of time to make because I was not familiar with the program. I made this logo again and it was a lot easier to do because I started to understand all the techniques of the Illustrator program. My logo represents me because the first letter of my name is "M", and my last name is Pharmer. I wanted to incorporate the "Ph" sound in my logo instead of using just the letter "P". I also like to design with straight and curved lines; the "M" in the logo is linear and the "Ph" is a circle that signifies curvature.
