Digital artist inspiration project: Takashi Murakami
- Click on Image to view presentation.
For this art project we were asked to choose a contemporary or post contemporary digital artist/designer and find in depth research about them and then recreate an art piece that is similar to the artists. I chose to do my project on Takashi Murakami because I have seen a lot of his work while researching but I never knew who created the art pieces until now.
For my project I decided to use lots of various shapes and colors. I made this design in Photoshop. The way that I start this project was by sketching out the main design out with the pen tool and then filling in the whole design in with various colors. This art project took a long time with lots of attempts and failures. This was my first time using Photoshop since last year and I probably should have tried something more simpler so that way all of my previous knowledge with Photoshop would be able to come back to me. But Overall I think that this was a good first project to be able to try something new and for me to show my improvments from this first project to the upcoming project in Adv. Digital Arts.
