About me

For my tag brush, I started off by using a black-and-white image of my logo. My logo represents who I am because of my initials. In the black-and-white image, I started by using the pen tool to outline my logo. Then once it was outlined I added the spray, scratches, and negative files to the logo in Photoshop. Once everything was put together I was able to make it into a tag brush.  I used my tag brush to create another image of my logo on a new file in Photoshop. The tag brush also allowed me to put 3 logos with different colors on top of each other which you see above. I chose red and blue because they are my two favorite colors. The tag brush being placed on top of each other gives a cool visual effect.

I used the pen tool and shapes to create the features of my face. once I fully traced my face I gave it color to bring it to life. I used the "we want you propaganda as inspiration to create my pet peeve propaganda. I traced the soldier using the pen tool and gave it color. once it had color I put my traced selfie and army body together to create a full soldier with my face.  My propaganda is a pet peeve of mine when new drivers drive slowly. I chose a soldier because it is more intimidating. I used different layers to have certain features and give them color. The solider is pointing at a slow driver telling them to drive faster. Illustrator helps me bring this propaganda to life.
