Rough draft 

Final 




5/10 Kolesa p.5 typography project 
Description:
My piece is simple with some color. It has a main focus on the words sunshine and shadow. The sun and the cloud have a gradient affect on them and are not completely colored in.
Analysis:
In this piece I used contrast between the fancy font and normal simple font. Also there is balance with the sun on one side and then the clouds balancing on the other side. When someone is looking at the piece their eyes go towards the fancy font in gold first. Another principal I used was texture in the words sunshine and shadows.
Interpretation: I chose this quote from Helen Keller because it reminds us that if we look towards the happier things in life we won’t even notice the bad things that could have happened. It is a good reminder that life shouldn’t be focused on negative things but positive things. I added a sunshine and storm cloud to represent the sunshine and the shadows in life.
Judgement: I really like how this project turned out. I’m glad that I used the sunshine and cloud as examples for the quote. I also love how the words sunshine and shadows turned out and I’m glad I made them pop out. Hopefully when people see it, it will make them remember to look more towards the good things happening rather than the bad things.
