Week 2: Compound Word Peer Feedback & Revision

Feedback

• Either have a solid background or a gradient
• Have the snake sitting on a rock

I received feedback on my rattlesnake, and for homework I need to revise my illustration. I don't have to apply all the suggestions, but I will probably put a colored background in.

Revision Process

This is the original drawing.

#1 Revision (Final)

#2 Revision

For the revised illustration, I used Adobe Photoshop. I added a rock for the snake to sit on, a blue sky, and a shadow underneath the snake. Both revision illustrations are the same, the only difference is the color of the sky. In the #1 Revision the sky is darker, while #2 Revision is lighter. The darker colored sky provides more emphasis on the snake for both the rattle and snake really pop out. Also, it is kind of difficult to notice but there is a slight texture added to the sky. In Photoshop I added a filter (distort) to the sky and it made it look as if it was painted on a canvas.
