Ok. I lied. I didn't do a lot of work with Maya this month. I was frustrated with the program and decided to try something novel. Schoolwork usually feels like a chore to me, but research doesn't necessarily go hand-in-hand with homework. I was curious about a couple subjects that I couldn't get off my mind. Why didn't I learn anything about the Etruscans but I learned a lot about Romans? What the heck is the Christian concept of the Trinity? I was brainstorming a unique way to make more art, and I landed on infographics. I had never really done infographics before outside of school, and I think they turned out pretty well. I learned a lot about the subjects, and it was refreshing to do research without doing homework. Etruscan Culture Infographic It was cool to experiment with a new art medium, but I also went back to something I promised in my previous blog post. Well, I kinda did.
I was planning to make jersey concepts for the Washington Senators, but I was exhausted from making infographics and unsuccessfully making something in Maya, so I settled on a helmet for starters. I was working in Photopea, so, naturally, I became pretty annoyed in roughly twenty minutes. Photopea's quick select tool isn't the best to say the least, but I eventually finished up the helmet concept. You can see it by visiting the Gallery page in the top right of your screen. When I finally finished it, I was fatigued enough that I didn't even try to make a uniform. Although this month was disappointing, August will bring the long-awaited Senators jersey concept and, if all goes well, a piece or two in Maya. Summary
