Letter Composition

I met the objective of the assignment by composing a design out of just the letter 'z' and using several artistic skills. I believe my strongest area of my work would be my use of the blend modes and filters on the lettering compared to my weakest which would be my use of layering the letters. Three elements that make my image strong would be my use of blend modes, filters, and gradient. My blend modes helped because the colors contrast well with each other, along with my filter, the design on the letters make the image feel more like its from outer space; as well as my gradient because it gives off a galaxy feel is it starts as purple and transitions into a blue. I could improve on my creativity and explore the Photoshop app more to discover new things. I could also improve on the way I position the letters and try to position them in a different manner. Lastly, I feel as thought I could've made the paint splatter more visible. I believe that I tried my best overall and I don't think it is horrible for my first time, something I would change about this process is that I bend the rules a bit and try to explore on my own.
