Design Competition Final

Design Competition Final

This is my final creation for the design competition project. I started in Illustrator drawing and working with the Live Trace, and then moved it to Photoshop where I applied textures, adjusted brightness, contrast, and shadows. I worked with the pencil, eraser, paintbrush, and healing tools, along with layer styles, masks, and filters.

I set out with my design to create a finished project that encouraged the viewer to look at things a little differently, as Surrealism often does. My end design combines the mixture of both a 2D and 3D view, with the faucet popping while the metal stays flat, but is arranged with shadows to add depth. The use of metal for the waves creates a new perspective in my surreal world.
