I just finished my 7 images of ‘Little Tangerine’ story for the upcoming exhibition! It’s now in my Illustration gallery for everyone to see.
Hahaha, I got a funny story about this project; I nearly had a heart attack a while back due to my discovery that my PC screens give out different colours than what printers and an Apple screens in my university do. This meant it forced me to redo all of the seven images of my book that took me three months to do, now into an intense session of three to eleven hours a day of sitting in front of a computer screen fixing the colours for over three weeks.
Now that they are finished, I just have to finish the editing of the book in InDesign so to get it ready for printing. Next I need to focus on the framing of the printed images and finishing off the rest of the projects in my MA assignments that are soon to be due. For example this website is one of my projects that are going to be graded soon, so give me luck.
HUGE TIP if you are going to do art on a computer;
Before you start creating art or printing out art, check that your colours and images look good in different computer screens for colour tones and see how the colours look like once printed out. So that you don’t have to redo everything all over again. I found out that Apples are quite reliable when it comes to colour exposure, unlike PC’s, so once I got the money I might get an Apple to do my art projects on. Meanwhile my University Apple computers will have to be my main tool for now.
