Creativity with Digital Art

Creativity flows through my mind on a daily basis. Creativity is what helps people think of abstract things and it also helped in advancing towards the future. I can confidently say that I have a creative mind because it feels like a whole new world inside. My mind illustrates and provides an illusion of a world in which I am the main character. These thoughts are usually depicted from previous movies, videos or scenarios that happened in real life to cause my brain to begin working.

The most of my creativity comes from either superhero shows or musicals. My brain created two separate worlds where I can either be the vigilante who isn’t really a superhero, but has the “cool, bad boy” persona or a world in which is filled with music which is basically derived from High School Musical. Either way, my brain will often create these narratives and unique stories that is very hard to explain, but very interesting to contain. It’s been like this for years now and it still continues either after finishing a movie, or listening to music. The creativity flows through these activities and that brings me to the assignment.

For the assignment, it requires students to put their creativity to the test and translate it to digital artwork. Now I could have attempted to bring the illustrations my mind creates into the digital artwork, but it would take too long so I opted to focus on a future.

My mind instantly went to the basic thought process of what I really value and would want in the future. Automatically, my brain thought of a Cabin. For some odd reason, I really like the look of a Cabin. Even though, movies have depicted cabins as a dangerous place to live in. I am more of an introvert rather than extrovert so a Cabin would definitely resonate with me. I like the quiet, ominous feeling towards Cabins and I feel like it speaks to me more than the typical mansion. Also, during my thought process of what to focus on, I found stickers and stumbled upon a sticker of Michael Myers. I thought the clever thing to do was add the sticker of Michael Myers stabbing a pumpkin into the photo since Halloween is nearby and movies that often have Cabins are horror films.

The next photo I chose from Pixabay is a Money picture because in the future, I want to be successful. My definition of being successful deals with money. Money does not buy happiness, but it can dictate your life. I added a sticker that says “get rich or die blogging” only because it was a funny sticker to me and then I added a gif of an animated cartoon looking character holding money.

On the third photo which should have been first now that I think about it, I put family up there. Not family of my own, but the family that I have right now. They are the most important people in my life and I am still going to try my best to make them proud in the future. The sticker on the pic is the marvel character Deadpool making a heart sign with his hand.

After the pictures, I started checking the other tools. I learned that you could change the font and the colors and so that is what I did for the heading. Firstly, I moved around the heading and added a shape of a heart underneath. I then added random shapes next to the headline which I still can’t describe, but after turning the background page Black, I decided to just call it Stars. In terms of the Colors within the heading, I remembered during class about the discussion on “what’s your favorite color?” My favorite color is Red, specifically Dark Red just due to how it looks. I definitely favor the colors over the rest and I prefer it over the lighter Red. So in conclusion, this was my creation of dream future.
