Haiku: It was time to leave, she emerged from the bunker and greeted the sun.
I choose to use Photoshop, used tools I have never used properly just to experiment. so far I have used the brush tool to create my sunset.
I started by grabbing a image I already had of a sunset and use adobe capture to create a pallet just so I can be using the right sort of colours. I then made the image larger so I can use it as a guide line, by adding a new layer on top I could easily use the brush tool to put the right colours in the right places. I feel like it worked because the sunset colours all seem to complement each other.
From there I then switched to the ”mixer brush tool“ this tool helps blend the colours together. While blending the colours I noticed how it gave an acrylic paint blend look, which I personally think is the perfect look I’m going for because sunsets are normally mixed and blended randomly.
Once blended all the colours I then got rid of the image I was using for the “stencil“ and began adding the city. Adding the city was pretty simple, I just used the ”rectangular marquee tool” for most the buildings. For the bridge I used the pen tool to make the curved lines.
That's my first third of my poster done!
