OUR LAST 2DDESIGN ACTIVITY :(

First I would like to thank Miss Lisa! She has though me many different set of skills that will come in very handy for my degree course and also my work life. 

Second the last activity with Miss Lisa! Well we did painting to music!!! :D  

We had to paint to two different kinds of music, painting to music meaning painting to what we are sensing from the music.

The first kind of music we painted to was the hits that are playing now on the radio. Most of the songs that are IN at the moment. 

Here is my painting!!

I painted this when I was listenning to the Hit musics(The "IN" music) because i feel like the music now is very wild upbeat and fast going, but the next moment calm and nice. So i felt its like a fire, the fire can be wild but at times calm and still. So that why I used red and painted it to the shape of a fire that is spreading.

For the second type of music we did Classical music!! 

And 

And here is my drawing!!

When I was listening to the Classical song, I felt that it was very dull and slow, very saddening and very dark but at the same time calm and relaxing. Hence my drawing, it's all dark and dull but has a view of the moon light and mountains with snow falling down for me I feel that this is a very calm and relaxing environment.

Well this is the last official post from me for 2-D Design class and for the foundation course! :( Thanks for reading and GOD Bless You! :D

BATIK TRIP!!

On the 29 November we when to a Batik factory somewhere in KL. We had to get in group of 4-5 and decide before hand what we are going to design. For my group our theme was to make modern normal day workers into super heroes!!

HOW to make your own BATIK!! 

STEP one!

 Draw the lines with pencil first!
 This pic isn't very clear cause the pencil like is very soft. Sorry for that :(

 STEP two!

     

DRAW it over with wax using a Tjantings!

WHAT is a Tjantings? 

A Tjantings is use to whole the hot wax and then use like a pencil to draw out the outlines on the batik!

STEP three!!

Coloring!!

Here are some pictures to show what did at the Batik factory!

 

Our work will be left at the factory for a few days before they sent to it all to us. They are going to help us touch up the color and also wash off all the wax, before the batik is ready.

Part 2 of the Monogram Assignment!!

We had to design our own monogram. So i Googled monograms to get a clear idea of how one looks like.

Examples of what I found.

 

After that I looked through some books to get some ideas of the font that I can use for my monogram. 

Now the design process starts!!

I went and did some quick sketches of ideas I had and came out with 11 sketches.

Here are the sketches!!

and the last one that Miss Lisa picked!!

but it needed some improving on the angles and thickness. So I drew on a graph paper and picked the colours that I'm planning to use and after a few tries I got this final one.

The pink colour can be changed to any other colour I like but that about the end product of my final design!!
