'pixlr.com'

Today we were told to use one of seven websites that resemble that of the program photoshop, I chose to use pixlr.com, a simple website that offers very similar tools to photoshop. I used the pencil tool, the drawing tool, and the eraser tool, a total of three tools to create this image that looks hand drawn drawing. This website is really quite great considering it is free. The tools are really intuitive and are easily understood. Compared to photoshop it is quite close, using some of the same ideas and tools as photoshop. I feel like anyone who had a desire to accomplish anything from a drawing to a more serious design could use this site. I recommend this site.

Visual Puns

For this projects we were told to represent a pun visually. I just kinda thought of the individual elements that made up the pun and tried to think of what would iterate the pun, using the four techniques we were provided with, threshold, posterize, gradient map, and overlay. I think I did a pretty great job with everything, though, I kinda wish I used the filters and such more effectively. I love my Buddha one.
