We got asked to produce a piece of work based on Kate moross artwork. She uses a wide range of bright and eye catching colours which draw in it's audience. I have attempted to produce some inspired work from her style, I have done this by adding bright colours, multiple bold fonts, illustrations and a squashed spacing between the illustrations. This is an example of one of her pieces of artwork. She is famous for her advertising of popular products, festivals and many more things. -------->Formal Elements:
In Kate's work she uses many different formal elements, these include: Colour - In her work she uses a wide range of colours which makes her work so bright, colourful and eye catching. Tone - With using multiple colours she has added aspects of tone in some of her work. Shape - In some of her work (like her show work below) she uses shapes as well as intriguing patterns and typography. Form - It is clear that she works in a 2D form, but adds elements of 3D looks to the shapes and typogrpahy of her work.
When producing a response I made sure to look further into the artists Kate Moross to get a full understanding of the type of work that she produced, I found that her work was bright and colourful and used some imagination in the use of colours and fonts. We got asked to produce inspired work based on Kate, and by doing this we needed to illustrate things about ourselves in a stylistic way based on Kate. After looking up more about her and her work I decided to get started with drawing illustrations and personal details about myself - such as: food i like, when i was born, words to describe me...etc. I did this by starting off using a pencil; after doing this I needed to go over this with pen (ensuring all paths were joined) and I scanned it into photoshop as a 300dpi TIFF file. Once I had done this I needed to adjust the levels it overly black and white; this helped to make the lines bolder and more clear, also clearing away any obvious pencil marks on the page. If necessary I could of used the pencil tool for any gaps which needed filling, all my lines were joined so I did not need to go through this process. After all these processes in Photoshop were completed I needed to export it into Illustrator and create an image trace using three colours. I need just need to expand it and select the colour and colour it all in, in the colours I wanted. When going through these processes it was difficult to get all of my work completely on the page so some of it got cut off at the top but the colours still got filled in perfectly. The rest of the process went well and were easy to follow. Kate Moross influenced my work as I; like Kate, used bright and bold colours which stand out in an eye catching appearance. When producing my own interpretation and inspired work of hers I used personal details and thing about me which entitled my influential piece to be original and like others as it includes things about me. Kate Moross's work is also very original and creative. I used multiple fonts to create originality and boldness, in Kate's work she has also achieved this in her multiple pieces of work. I like, like Kate; used multiple colours in order to express creativity and originality to my work, Kate Moross also does this, however she limits the range of colours for one word. When making my response to her work I used the same process as what she would have done; I began by using a pencil to draw it all to and then continue by colouring it on computer.
If I was to get a chance to improve it anyway I would try to add more little illustrations to fill up the little amounts of space, this would make it more squashed and compact which is exactly how Kate presents her work; which is how I want to present mine. I could also made it more compacted and added more information about myself and other illustrations and colour. Apart from these I feel as though I have produced a successful interpretation of her work and I am pleased with my final result.
