Type As Form: Compositeby ~frogface9

Digital Art / Typography / Other

Typography assignment.

After designing nine separate compositions, each with a different number and letter, but with the same shape, combine them all into a single piece. Design this piece around an adjective. Colors can change where elements overlap multiple compositions. Elements can be moved from their original positions, but must remain in their original square.

Confusing? I probably wouldn't understand if I hadn't done it.

The adjective I chose was 'curious.'

EDIT: This is the first time I've been on DA in over a week because I've been busy. So, when I saw the DD I had to scroll up & down a couple times, just to make sure I was really looking at my piece. Thanks, everyone - especially ~marotiel and ^patgroove!

EDIT (2): This assignment was started on paper and completed in Adobe Illustrator.

Daily Deviation

Given 2007-10-12

Type As Form: Composite by ~frogface9 wraps around itself! It is simplistic and I love it! I want to show you how text can speak for itself, and this is the deviation that does it! It curves and embraces everything typographic. The font matter conveys not just what it is to be typographic, but what it is to enjoy a font! ( Suggested by ~marotiel and Featured by `lonnietaylor )

The solid colors compliments the solid text and shapes wonderfully. I especially love your use of lighter grays with that one mid-shade of orange as a spot color. What really says "curious" to me is the way many of the icons interlock within others to give a normally flat image an unusual sense of dimention.

Congrats on the DD!

Ooooh, a DD

Pretty awesome! I like it though, just like a lot of people on here <.<

And I liked the ones hanging in the FAB. Definitely love the overlapping and the circles! Cause I'm a circle junkie

You're an art student? Should I know you? I feel like I should.

~inject Oct 22, 2007 Hobbyist Traditional Artist

haha, you do know me. But I guess I don't use my name on here...but I'm in your figure drawing class.

And this is seeming increasingly more stalkerish...so I should probably just say this is Michelle

This is a spell check nightmare...

I like it... I like it... Good colors. I'm waiting for more...

~frogface9 Oct 19, 2007 Student

Thanks! And don't worry. The semester is far from over. I'll be posting more type art.

Congratulations on the DD. :]

"Curious" overflows from the work, I think.
The simple colours make it more intriguing, as well.
But, yeh, that assignment description confuses me! =_=''

Great job, & congrats again.

Thanks for sharing~

Thanks so much! I feel so out of the loop, since I'm pretty much the last to find out about my own DD. I'm so glad you get "curious" from this piece, because concept is very important to me.
