T: The use of simple shapes and colors really stands out and expresses your 'flat' design style, its very on point!

A: What intrigued you about this style in particular?

G: I could suggest that with your fruits, you can space them out a little bit to incorporate more balance.

1. I would say i was more so drawn to this piece because of the contrast of the greens that you have in your piece, green is one of my favorite colors personally. The text is another thing caught my eye right away. The way the text is wrapped in and out of the designs you have in the background, with the comic like superhero guy on the top right its all very cool and ties in very well together.

2. What was your thought process when making this piece, what styles were you going for?

3. i would say your piece is overall well done and just say keep up the good work.~ Marius Beasley

I love the use of different colors to give it a hypnotic kind of effect but my main question is what kind of style is this? My suggestion is to also add some different words in some of the text, but other than that it's pretty good! -CJ Jenkins

Ken I like the way that you use the blue pictures to fit your background and the misc plus the chess patters makes it look great.what made you think about this.i don't have one

My favorite part of this is the flat, geometric shapes. Is the type used for the word "moodboard" the only type you would use? My suggestion is to really get those colors unified, each element is sort of different.

Alanna- I love the contrast of all the colors! The dark background, the bright red text, the off-white person, all bring together the vintage look. The simplification of the person makes it so they are all white, and further pushes the vintage design. I was wondering what "elements" means in this photo? I recommend adding something in the light spots, maybe even sharp shading to the woman to convey lighting. The lighting could be one color, to continue with it's look.

You used lots of shape to bring the board together, its very cohesive and the color scheme brings a nice balance. Why did you choose blue as the accent color? Maybe figure out more ways to lead your eyes around.-Rayla Giblin

My favorite part is the colors! even though they are all over the rainbow, they are still coherent. My question is: what are your inspirations? My suggestion is to check your spelling before going in with color.

T: It's very well done how you used colors because, despite most of them being very similar, you made your colors stand out amongst each other using tone and shade.

A: How does old internet aesthetics make you think of Psychedelic and/or grunge?

G: The only thing I'd recommend is possibly making the background a bit more psychedelic using distorted images or textures, because this seems to lean more on grunge and retro.

I like the usage of warmer colors and the shading. How did you come up with the colors did you use? I think use the green and blue for pants and shoes for the person in the bottom. -Remington Hang

Noah Anderson - (T) I really enjoy looking at this! The colors mix super well and work great with the psychedelic theme. It has really great patterns like the two mushrooms at the bottom along with the five circles of color. I also love the graphics used here as it fits the theme really well and draws your eye. (A) My questions for you is what makes something psychedelic? I understand the eye and hands and the purple but what about the internet symbols? And what about the planet? (G) My suggestion for you is maybe consider making some things pop out more. Everythings seems to mesh together but if you had certain this pop out more, it may add even more theme to the graphic but you did really good!

# data[].attributes.body
T: Your expression of personal style really shines through in this board! the colors and pictures go together beautifully.

A: How did you come up with this specific style?

G: I might suggest adding more overlapping layers with the pictures or shapes/symbols :)

-Parker N

Alanna: I love the unity in this board! The Photos, text, and shapes all come together and add something to this board, every detail feels important. Is this style focused only on brutalist architecture? I recommend making the cyan brighter so it contrasts better.

When relaxing you are mainly care free and it's just the person relaxing and nothing else to bother them. Was the character hand drawn? Could change the font of Relaxing into something else that could match the vibe. -Remington Hang

I enjoy the way you used shape, it really helped lead my eyes around. it also helped provide emphasis to the cat. Why did you choose that color scheme? I think you should make sure all the colors are cohesive though to allow the design to have more unity. -Rayla Giblin

# data[].attributes.body
T: I love the 2000's internet style you were going for, it's one of my personal favorite kinds of styles

A: What's with the little mushrooms in the corner? It just seems kind of there

G: I wouldn't really suggest much, it's pretty good!

# data[].attributes.body
T: The execution of minimalism was greatly done because of the way there is the bare minimum, but the blue highlight behind your name and the slight shadow behind it make it pop out in a very appealing way.

A: What made you go for minimalism?

G: The only suggestion I'd give is maybe less opaque (more transparent) so we can see the blue a little clearer.

-Spencer Hang

The background was really relaxing,chill and the use of the person relaxing in a bean bag was really cool, my question is how did you come up with it. My suggestion is make the font match the vibe of the art - Joshua Lee

# data[].attributes.body
T: The use of the bright and bold pinks, purples and blues really represent the psychedelic style

A: What gave you the idea to combine the styles of both psychedelic and grunge

G: I'd suggest add more pictures and textures that represent the grunge still because the pictures you added that are more "tech" related it makes it have more of a technology/futuristic feel to it

-Ace Shimek

Using the blue to bring in the viewers attention to the name was very nice idea. How did you add the shadow affect to the words? Could add a gradient effect to the background white --> gray. -Remington Hang

# data[].attributes.body
Noah Anderson - (T) I really enjoy what you did here. It adds a lot of value to your art because you performed really well. I love the shapes you put over the pictures and how one takes up the whole side and the others take up some. The colors fit super nice and I love how you add red with the black and grey colors because it makes it interesting rather than having it feel like everything is a background. (A) My question for you is do these pictures actually connect to anything or were they just used for the art? Was there a message you wanted to drive out with them. (T) My only suggestion would be to make the text pop more or have it draw your eye a little more. The text "Shape Photography" was almost missed by me because it blends with the color behind it and is small. Good job!

# data[].attributes.body
Alanna- I love the details and textures of the hands! It really fits the "psychedelic" vibe. You also utilized emphasis really well, my eyes are naturally drawn to the hands and the writing helps that out. I wonder made you decide to repeat the words "trippy" "pop" and "art" specifically? I would recommend changing the background colors to more colder colors/contrasting colors to fit with the psychedelic vibe.

# data[].attributes.body
My favorite part of this is the little pops of color, i believe black, white, and a single color works very well. Is architecture a key feature to this style? I reecommend going even crazier! too orderly for brutalism!

Jayden Stubbe

T: i love the color scheme in this piece it truly is cool, the way the each design ties into one another bringing the psychedelic look alive. One eye ball being grey scale with a scrapbook like look, another being in color with amore digital look to it. One thing that caught my eye is the tv dripping the colors off the screen i also thought that was pretty cool.

A: What made u think of the Tv girl ascetic, do u listen to the artist, any favorite songs etc?

G: I would recommend one thing to potentially make your piece pop out, thats just adding little more color to the grey scale in the background! ~ Marius Beasley

# data[].attributes.body
T - This design is clearly displaying minimalism. The subtle background and clean color scheme unifies this composition. The balance is effective and efficient --there's not too much detail which leads me to believe the 'less is more' approach connects with modernism/minimalist.

A - I noticed the neon glow is no longer emphasizing the letters. What were your thoughts about your typography? What made you change your mind?

G - Although 'less is more' with this style, I'm wondering if you explored with visually balancing the weight of the text as an asymmetrical composition, meaning, what would happen if you shifted the type and color bar all the way to the left or right?

# data[].attributes.body
loving the look of the subject and the colors. my question is, what other media do you think fits with this style? My reccomendation is to just add a little somethig into the blank space there.

Jayden Stubbe

# data[].attributes.body
T: The color palette and balance is very appealing! Your use of shapes and images appears well thought-out and pleasing to look at.

A: Did you have specific inspiration for this? If so, what was it?

G: I have to get very picky with suggestions because I can't find much to change about this, so I might add that maybe adjusting the placement of shapes/images to increase padding could be beneficial!

-Parker N.

# data[].attributes.body
Noah Anderson - (T) Your post gives me a lot of questions which honestly makes it stand out. I do like the text font you did and the shapes pop out nicely because of the background color you choose. (A) My question for you is what does it mean? Most art doesn't give meaning right when you look at it but what made you go with what you did? It makes me courise. I also would like to know what theme did you pick? The theme looks simple and full of shapes or graphics. (G) My suggestion would be to make the "mood board" text pop out a little more by adding maybe brighter color to it. I think that would look nice and then maybe add text of the them you did or text that helps with what the theme is.

# data[].attributes.body
T: The way you organized the pictures and made it feel like a collage of your inspirations, while also working in elements of some of the styles.

A: What drew/draws you into some of these people's works and inspired you?

G: Personally, I would work in some of the styles of the artist(s) used to show how you draw inspiration from them.

-Spencer Hang

I like the design because the colors choices and the contrasting and my question is how did you come up with this design. My suggestion is add more text. -Joshua Lee

# data[].attributes.body
T: The colors are very warm and they all come together to create a nice pleasing image to look at.

A: Why was the cat added? I think its really funny

G: I wouldnt suggest anything

- Yami

# data[].attributes.body
T: The over-lapping pictures and text really go with the style you were going for and fills in a lot of empty space which is scene frequently in the brutalism style

A: Is there a specific reason why you chose to use that blue color in some spots of the mood board

G: Although the pops of the blueish color in the piece makes it stand out a bit, maybe add a little bit more of that blue to help it be a bit more prominent

-Ace Shimek

The colors remind me of the rainbow parchute in school and my question how did you come up with this design and my suggestion is check the spelling -Joshua Lee

T: I thought these pieces were different in a good way from the others displaying different kinds of album covers displaying different colors, textures and text of writing. I can see how it all ties into one another though and exactly what they were going for here.

A: What was your thought process behind your piece?

G: Overall your pieces look pretty great and keep up the good work~ Marius Beasley

# data[].attributes.body
T: I know half of these albums and like them. I love how you added them all together and put them in their own specific groups

A: Were you planning on adding more albums?

G: I think some of the covers dont fit the original image / moodboard

T - The balance of the design is very effective. I am drawn to the focal point of the piano player.

A - This design style resembles flat illustration or modernism. Was this the style you were trying to achieve? If so, working 'flatter' in a literal sense will help convey the message better. Your design could have only been one row of people and would still be strong!

G - I would encourage you to explore with more layers next time regarding value (check out the other Flat design for inspiration!)

I enjoy the simplicity and the usage of simple lines and shapes, it provides nice unity within. What lead you to choose minimalism? Maybe make the color under the font a longer shape. -Rayla G
