Graphic Design Pencil

My Personalized Pencil

Pencil in a Can

My Personalized Pencil, Pencil in a Can, and From the Moon to the Sun were pretty interesting to make. I got to learn different tools and options when using Adobe Illustrator. When I got the Adobe Illustrator first set up, I got to learn how to make my own workspace bigger or smaller depending on what is going to be in the workspace.



I started to figure out how to make the right size for the starting shape of the pencil and started using the many different shapes that make up a pencil. I started selecting the different areas/shapes and filled in the certain colors for it. After I got the regular pencil done, I coped and pasted that pencil and then edited it.

For my personalized pencil I found a really interesting pattern that looked kind of Hawaiian or tropical to me. It seemed like a very flowing and relaxed pattern, so I chose that one. To make it look like it was writing, I had the pencil look like it was writing my name. After I got my "tropical" pencil done, I had to think of a personal creative piece.

From the Moon to the Sun was what I came up with. It took me a few minutes to come up with something that would seem creative and kind of simple so I thought of the Sun and the Moon. I had to think of how it would tie into everyday life. So I said,"It is better to think big and bright, rather than dark and small."

I really hope everybody likes my design/project. I'm looking forward to hearing from everybody's comments below on what they thought about it.
