Deadline: Turn in by Wednesday, September 26.
Produce: One complex piece of art per person in the group. (Two simpler pieces.) (Groups of at most two.)
Goal: Art projects should demonstrate a range of functions from the chapter, try to use 3-4 from each category in your whole project.
Methods of placement: beside, above, overlay, place-image, as well as
the “/align
” variations. (Use the variations!)
Changing pictures: crop, scale, rotate.
Shapes: triangles (many!), lots more listed at the end of Chapter 3 (PDF pages 60–61).
Colors: color-database
, make-color
from the internet, colorize
or name->color
.
Remember: This is a short project. I expect you will spend no more than three hours on it, including time working in class Monday and Tuesday.
It is OK to simplify and focus on using the goal functions (see above).
Choose a piece of art for inspiration.
Goal: create two pictures that are challenging or interesting to recreate once they are finished. If you can get someone to say, “How did you do that?“, your puzzle is a success.
