ART219

_week : 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 |

HOMEWORK:
Using Adobe Photoshop, you will create a document (300 ppi); this document should be about an artist you admire.
- I'm recommending 17in wide by 11in tall
- Using rulers & guides, create a 1 inch (white or black) margin.
- Imagining that you are designing a 2-page spread, divide the page in half.
- One page should be filled with an image, the other side should have information.
- Pick an artist that appeals to you
- On the informative page, include a title/header.
- Write at least 2 paragraphs about the artist and their artwork.
Note: You can have as many images as you want. You can use 1, 2, or 3 columns of text.
*Save both a .PSD file, and a .TIFF copy.
