Typography Images

Typography is an artistic technique of text matter. This method makes a big impact with images especially if you add words that are symbolizing the image. It gives the audience a different perspective. From what Ive seen I never saw that much typography around so I'm excited to try this out. Artwork that isn't popular is one of my favorites because the more I see something the more tired I get of seeing something.

One of my biggest challenges was when Photoshop is lagging and doesn't let me finish on time. So Id have to exit to try and restart. Another thing I had a problem with was trying to get the size of the text to look like it was engraved into the picture of our teacher. What helped me is saving my work so that if I do something that couldn't be fixed I would just have the saved file to open up and go back to were I was. My favorite part about this project was stamping on words that described us.  Different words were stamped on different parts of our face depending on what shade our face was from shadows, mid-tones, and highlights.
