Compositional Units Deisgn 1


For this project I experiments with space, symmetry, and figure. Was I drawing white boxes on a black background, or black boxes on a white background? The world may never know. After talking with Dennis I was inclined to include several of the smaller boxes at different places in my composition. It took me a bit out of my comfort zone but it ultimately broke up the larger chucks of white and black to create a more interesting space.

Family Tree

This is a family tree of my family! All images were created by me except for the photo of the tree in the background. I experiments with the drawing tools in Illustrator as well as tracing and copying.

Organizational Chart

For this project, our teacher Dennis, walked us through how to use the rectangle tool as well as how to align our boxes on the page. I played around with making shadows as well as creating a flag for the background.
