Desert Scene
For this project I wanted to try a simple landscape scene that was visually appealing. I experimented with gradients and shadows for the pyramids and uses basic shapes and images for the foreground and background.
Countryside Scene
In this project I created this scene to showcase different perspectives and created a complete scene using basic shapes and gradients. I added a grain texture to give it a unique look and feel.
Polar Bear Scene
I designed this piece to showcase the idea of using shadows as a silhouette in the foreground and created the landscape out of basic shapes. I gave the background added dimension by adding a glow on the horizon line and gave the sky an ambient glow in the full moon. I added a grain texture to give it a unique look and feel.
Elk Silhouette Scene
I designed this as another piece to showcase a silhouette as the focal point in the design. It's more of a midground design but captures the viewers interest with the elk silhouette in front of the full moon and clouds behind.
Birds Sunset Scene
I wanted to create a different type of silhouette scene so I designed a couple birds on a tree branch in the moonlit sky. I used a couple different brushes for the branches as well as the dots in the background sky.
Glass Planet Scene
I created this outer space scene to showcase the use of gradients, masking, and layering to give it a glassy look for Saturn. I added a couple of moons orbiting the planet as well as basic shapes for the background to round out the scene.
