Fiesta poster dos

This was the second poster for the Fiesta project which I used very vibrant colors to indicate a celebration feeling. For the image I used the pen tool for the solid forms and the paintbrush tools to create texture. In the process I also used the eclipse tool for creation of egg shapes. 

Fiesta poster

In celebration of San Antonio's Fiesta I created an image of the riverwalk using a trace layer of an actual photo of a nighttime riverwalk fiesta event. In the process of creating I used pen tool for the background images with a layer of paintbrush tools over them to create texture. The text arrangement I used to draw the eye around the image.

Valentine

This assignment was an excercise in using the paintbrush tools and text to create a valentines poster.
The background gradient tool was also used to create depth to the painted image created.
