Your Aesthetic Color Palette
Hi, my name is E3 and I am a freelance art director. I make various artwork from album work to posters, logos, and various goods. When you say “artwork,” many people think that you must have great skills and senses to create them. Not at all!
When I collect what you like and add your favorite colors to your own palette, it becomes an artwork. Why don't you create artwork with me that expresses yourself by focusing on your taste?
Just Remember 3 Things
Go with my favorite colors and objects ~ You only need to practice three big things when creating artwork with your own taste. It's about drawing ideas, combining colors, and layering and editing. I'm going to teach you these three techniques in the easiest and fastest way possible.
Record Your Inspiration and Add Imagination
Express the simple thoughts that come to your mind like writing and graffiti through text or pictures. There is no need to draw well, no need to draw seriously. Just record as the thoughts come up and you will be able to find out what you like and what shapes you draw often. Gather the records in one place and discover your taste! In this class, you’ll learn how to create artwork full of your personality.
Fill Your Images with Colors
When working on artwork, the most difficult thing is color combination. I always struggle with how many colors to choose, which colors to choose, which colors work best, and more! For those of you who struggle with this as well, I will tell you everything from the basics of color to how to create the color of the mood you want. You can use the color correction tool to edit in your own colors! Learn how to edit!
Create Natural Artwork
It takes delicate practice to bring in various images and combine them naturally while making it feel like a single work of art! Learn how to use basic Photoshop tools to pick and combine elements naturally. If you practice with a total of 5 different examples, your skills will surely improve.
Furthermore, we will use the completed artwork to produce a variety of goods that are great for gifts. I will tell you all the tips for printing.
Create a Portfolio with a Clear Concept
Finally, I'll show you how to create a portfolio with your own colors. I’ll show you how to choose a concept that can express you well, from how to develop that concept to how to incorporate it! I'll help you enrich your portfolio.
Fill your artwork with your favorite colors.
