Design 2- Project 2

So this next project in Design 2 involved a fruit, and a broad explaination. 

My fruit was the kiwi, originated in China but I emphasized on New Zealand which is kinda the second origin location. We couldn't use color, graphics (obviously), or anything too obvious. Basically the project was impossible at first. 

I went through around 8 iterations of my drawings and paintings for this process. Check em out! 

So this one, according to Steven, looked like a dolphin. I had no idea how to paint... So I just shot into the dark with this one.

This next one I actually attempted some geometric work into the painting. I learned to use my ruler to make straight lines look crisp. 

I then started to add some aspects of the actual vegetation, utilizing the half circle as the section of the kiwi.

I was like let's waste money and try a hybrid! Didn't work. But I was able to use this material for the final product. 


After that, I decided to start all over, a new location, much more zoomed out. I thought the idea of less geometric vegetation would increase the rational ideas of my drawings. 



I took the main landmass, brought it down a notch, and then added random lines to give it an architect appeal! 

I fixed some kinks and my professor was okay with the final product for now. There was more to straighten out. 


My professor suggested to change the orientation and lower the hue of the groves and this was my final product. 

I'm pretty proud of the process. 
I was scored a 4.0 on the final iteration of this project and showcased. 


Thanks for keeping up with me!
