“Bent Out of Shape,” 9” x 7.5”, made by Pam Geisel June 2013
The final design element is Shape.
Our assignment was to first doodle some organic shapes in a piece
of paper. Then we divided another piece of paper into rectangles, a geometric
shape. Then we drew one of the simple organic shapes inside the rectangles, expanding
and stretching it to fit as needed.
I started off with a leaf shape, although once I ‘bent it out of
shape’ it looks more like a tear drop to me. I emphasized the shape by making
by highlighting half of the leaf with a lighter color. I really like how the
four pointed ends come together creating a focal point.
