Graphic Design Assignment #6

-Jason Robidoux

Artist Reflection: Radial Symmetry

1. The strongest technical aspect of my work was my ability to have the shapes within the image appear to draw the viewers eye towards the middle. This was done by the use of lines from all sides going to the center of this image.
2. One thing I could've worked on was how the yellow rectangles aren't exactly symmetrical. At each corner they aren't perfectly lined up.
3. The easiest part of this activity was choosing the gradient pattern for the background. This was so because along with the shapes, it brings the viewers eye towards the center. It does this by having a neutral color and eventually changing to warmer colors.
4. The most difficult part of this project was lining everything up so it appeared to be the same line (EX: all the rectangles).
5. I demonstrated the objective in this art activity by successfully making the image radial symmetrical. I did this by using tools such as the square and circle marquee tool, the eye dropper, and paint bucket. I also rotated shapes, overlapped, changed the opacity, as well as putting the layers into 7 folders.
6. To me, this was my favorite project that I completed and the only thing I would try and change would've been how the yellow rectangles are slightly not symmetrical. But, other than that, I would not have changed anything.

  1. Great to see that you remebered how to apply the gradient tool from the first assignment. You did a nice job problem solving this assignment. I like how the bright yellow rectangles look like they are under the gray ovals but above the big blue circle.
