Adobe Shape CC

By Anonymous



Hi guys! So recently I happened upon this app in the app store. What it does is creates vector shapes from pictures you take on your iphone/ipad. I'm not sure if this app is available in any other app stores, but it's in the apple app store. It's free and pretty easy to use. The pictures above are screenshots of me messing around with it, on the left is what it looks like when you use your camera to take a picture (which you then turn into a vector shape). The green outlines are what will become the lines that make up the shape. You can mess with settings to change how detailed it is, and you can refine the shapes after you take the photo. You can also use photos from your camera roll instead of taking pictures live. The picture on the right is of a finished shape vector of a dollar bill. Since I'm only in DMA 1 and I haven't used Illustrator yet, I'm not sure exactly what all this means or how it works, but I thought it was pretty cool anyway. I think it'd be pretty useful when you want to transform drawings done on paper into digital art.

This is my last blog post for my senior year, so I'd like to say that I am so glad I took DMA classes throughout high school. I've learned so much and I wouldn't be where I am today without my experiences in the classes. I will be attending the Savannah College of Art and Design this coming fall and I couldn't be more excited. I'm thinking about majoring and working in the film industry, however, I will be pursuing all and any forms of art in the future as well. From a fellow artist: take the opportunities that you are given and work hard doing what you love.

Malena Bozzini         Malena Bozzini is a sophomore college student studying psychology. As her passion she is an artist. Her work is so original and abstract in order to dramatize her figures. She creates art out of emotion and uses her feelings to choose color and shape. One of the most interesting facts is that all of her pieces are done with colored pencils. Her art is so expressive that each piece gives out its own vibe. What makes her art unique is that it is inspired by motion and gestures. It is amazing how she developed such a style at such a young age.  Instagram @ malenabozzini

Project Runway designer Erin Robertson

Last week, I watched the season finale of one of my favorite shows, Project Runway. I have always been a fan of this show because they push people out of their comfort zone in hopes to expand their imagination and work with the potential they have o create amazing fashion pieces. The winner of season 15, Erin Robertson, was one of my favorite designers the show has ever been because she wasn't afraid to take risks and be herself even if it posed the threat of her going home. A couple times a season, the show does what is called an "avant-garde" challenge which is used o show the judges what new perspectives and ideas on fashion the designers have. Erin, described the term "avant-garde" as wearable art, which I thought was really cool. Here are a few of her avant-garde looks as well as a few of my favorite pieces from her this season.    Episode 11 "Bold Innovation" required the designers to create an avant-garde look with unconventional materi...
