During the process of the low poly art design, at first it seemed really hard. But I later realize, it was pretty easy. I think the hardest portion was making the triangles in small spaces. (e.g the small stem of the pear). But I figured it out during the way. I decided to use shade and tinted colors in the triangle to match the gradient of the pear. For example, I used a darker green color to represent the shades and a brighter color to represent the tint. These choices represents my concept of a low poly pear.

Low poly art is a image with meshed in small polygons. (e.g 1.2 image). As you can see from the image, simple geometric shapes are placed side by side to represent an object that takes up space. Poly art also has a lossless feel to it. In addition, it also has a low data file when downloaded. The name "low poly" is contributed by the small data usage, not only the meshed polygons. Low poly art is used in video games, to compress the rendering usage. It runs faster and is visually pleasing.

I like these colors. Everyday I complement colors without thinking. For example picking my outfit for the day. At occasions I wear blue pants and have a yellow sweater.

The reason why I chose the orange image is because it took out from the rest. Most of the images are real objects or colors. While this one was photo shopped. In addition it also is a good example of the differential eye cortex in humans. This image some what puts myself in others cornea. 

The checkers board is also the same as the orange image. But are good examples of good complementary colors and also differentiates eye cortex in humans. It fascinates me to see this because of the idea of different eye cortex.

The peas and tomato image is different from the rest of the selected images. Showing real color and is also a good example of red and green being complementary to each other. This gives off a satisfying emotion. I feels good to see this image, it feels like it was meant to be.


Shades is darkening a color by mixing black into the color.

Tint: is whitening the color by mixing a white color into the color.

Considerations:

For my icon set design, I'm considering using: yellow and blue, purple and green, and light blue and red.

For my full color icon-set, I'm considering using light blue and red.
