Mr. Rogers Layout

This is the final product for my page layout for my project on Mr. Rogers. I decided to use the colors from his sweater and shoes to make the word neighbor and the question mark more of a statement.

Mr Rogers Portrait

I started with this picture of Fred Rogers for my portrait.

Then I began blocking in all the shadows with the brush tool.

You can see how I laid out my layers with the different colors of brush strokes I used.

This is the final product.

Mr. Rogers

For our next project in Graphic Design 2 we are working on a poster tribute to someone that we look up to that is no longer living. For my person I chose Fred Rogers from Mr. Rogers Neighborhood. I used to watch his show whenever it came on TV, and he was actually the first person I thought of when the project was mentioned. I can't wait to get started.

Here are some inspiration photos that I might work from.

Here are some sources from my research.

My original image was a pile of leaves that I took on campus.

I tries to map out my image with the brush tool, but my eye for insane detail really overwhelmed me very quickly and decided to simplify my image using the  image trace tool. I traced the image using the 6 color photo setting, and I thought it came out nicely.

Here is the final product.
