The image that i created was based on The Riverside Museum. The picture was taken on one of my many visits to the museum in which i attend frequently. I tend to go here when it’s a nice day then take a walk by the Riverside.
To create this image i used the pen tool which helped to cut shapes from the upper building and help to create the jaggered effect. I used black, red and grey as they stand out more amongst the white background.
The image that i created was based in Glasgow City Centre. This picture was taken overlooking the water at the clyde side one of my favourite places to visit in a relaxing and tranquil atmosphere.
To create this image i used the polygon lasso tool which created the white cutting shapes throughout the image. I used black, red and white which made this image stand out with it’s attractive background.

This Silo Design uses mostly grey colours to emphasise the theme. A lot of words are used within the designs to help promote postivity, happiness and dedication to life.
I like this image as the two colours pink and blue contrast well which helps it to stand out. The circles are a good shape to use within the pink background.
I also have chosen this one as a favourite from the collection of designs. This shows an escalator with large print which is used by many commutors.
PETER SAVILLE – Peter Saville (born 9 October 1955) is an English art director and graphic designer. He came to fame for the many record sleeves he designed for Factory Records, of which he was a director
Peter Saville uses bold colours to emphasise his pieces of art. There is a mixture within there images of patterns, bright colours and flowers.
This is one of my favourite images used as it shows many colours within a circle which helps us to use our imagination. It gives off an older feel maybe from the 60s which was a very colourful era.
Another image I have chosen shows a bunch of flowers in quite a dull background. It helps the flowers stand out a little more but the image has more pale colours than bright.

This image shows a woman which looks as if she has been help up by wires. This is a powerful picture which uses large white print. It’s very expressive and reminds me of someone in performance.
This has four different images within the one picture which is a good way of contrasting between certain looks. It’s a very retro vivbe which shows women with big hair and sunglasses. All colours used seem to be pastel colours which give off a summery feel.
EL LISSITZKY – Lazar Markovich Lissitzky, known as El Lissitzky, was a Russian artist, designer, photographer, typographer, polemicist and architect.
Lissitzky’s work was able speak to the prevailing political discourse of his native Russia, and then the nascent Soviet Union.
Lissitzky used color and basic shapes to make strong political statements. Lissitzky also challenged conventions concerning art, and his Proun series of two-dimensional Suprematist paintings sought to combine architecture and three-dimensional space with traditional, albeit abstract, two-dimensional imagery.
Lissitzky uses all sorts of dimensional shapes which somehow turn in to art which has been much loved throughout people’s minds and hearts. It mixes with a bold colour then with beige backgrounds.
This image shows a build up of different shapes in all sizes. All are dimensional with lines, curves and albeit abstracts.
This image shows more diagonal shapes with pointed corners with very dark colours such as red and black. It reminds me of something in space such as the white circle being the moon and the black being the dark sky.

He is best known for his innovative magazine design, and use of experimental typography.Carsons work for the magazines beach culture and ray gun in the 1990s brought a new approach to type and page design breaking with traditional layout systems.
His artwork consists of images based on ray gun and art which perhaps involves beach vibes which all gives the impression of the artist being hip and cool.
This being one of my favourite images from Carson’s work as it shows my favourite colours in it being a sort of blue, aqua which connotates water. It shows text with each letter being spread throughout the picture as if it has been caught up in the wave.
This picture shows a woman with dark eyeliner and white face. This is to connotate the black swan with the words written across her face. Dark text has also been used.

With this image disorentation is used, it looks as though someone has blurred the image to create an unexplanation. The background is pale pink and looks as if a man or women is crouched down in an empty room.
