Artwork Portfolio

Due to the fact that the interviewee for my double page spread is a fictional character, I felt the need to create pieces artwork that I can put into my magazine to make it look as though they have been created by him as the character is a graphic artist.

Using images that I have gained and Adobe Photoshop, I have created pieces of artwork that will be used across different sections of my magazine to promote the work of the fictional interviewee Garry Downing.

• This piece will be used for my magazine's front cover. It includes two original images taken by me. One is of the Wearmouth Bridge and the other is of a model that I used for the photo shoot. I merged the two photos together in Photoshop to create a laid-over silhouette look.

• This is another piece of artwork which has been created by Gary Downing. It will be added to the left hand page of the double page spread. To create it, I simply took a picture of some mud smeared on the floor. I then added some filters on Photoshop such as the film grain filter to make the photo look more artistic. I felt this was quite an arty, innovative concept and thought it would look good on the double page spread. It is also actually mentioned within Gary Downing's actual interview and is labelled with the title 'Mud'.
