For my calligram I used an outline sketch of a picture of me and my father when I was younger. There is kind of a double meaning of why I used this picture, because in my letter I was talking about my father a lot. But, I was also talking about about myself asking myself how I am going to be in 20 years from now when I am all grown up and have a family. So I was trying to portray the outline of me and my father, as my younger self and older self. I created this image by uploading my drawing and just used the pen tool to trace it, and filled it in with the text of my letter. I also used the rectangle tool and made them very transparent to make the sand, water, and sunset the color I wanted.

Dear Future self,


Ur probably 40 something now which is pretty weird to even think of. How is Dad and Mom? Does Ian have a family? Do you have a family? Is your wife hot? How’s your new sister…Well she's not going to be your older sister when you see this again, or if you even see this again. What's her name? Is she in college? It's weird to think she will be 19 years old probably when you see this again, but she isn’t even born yet. What's her name? Do you still stay in touch with her? Anyway…college is going well so far. I'm up to my neck in work, but it is partially my fault I'm still getting used to the online way of doing school and homework. Another question. Did we make it? Did we graduate? I hope so. I’m missing home a bit, I know I'll be back in a few months, but that feels like a lifetime away. I'm also a little scared to go home. Everything will be different when I get back and I don't know how everyone is gonna react. Do you still live in Newburyport? Is the house big? Are Mom and Dad still in town? I’ve always wondered what life will be like after college. I’m hoping I do well and actually do something with my degree. I hope to enjoy my job when I am older, and if everything doesn't go well then I can always work for Dad hopefully. Is Dad still working? Probably not. He's going to be like 70 then. Is Mom still working? Probably, that's all she does. Is she still doing the same job or not? And is Ian doing well? He'll be 33 then. That is scary to think about. Anyways… I hope all is well, and our family is doing well, and I hope things do get better. Goodbye and I’ll see you when I'm 38… yikes.


Sincerely, 

Yourself

     What I went for was the classic traditional 3D design of the red moving into the blue. I like the messiness of the image and the grunge aspect of the missing lines and the spray paint. What I learned and what I thought was cool was that the images you create can now become an outline and can be used much more easier in another image.

I           Will my cards I wanted to keep simple like a normal average business card , I wanted to test out different font types, sizes, and colors. One thing I was unsatisfied with was, when I went to import my images and when I shrunk them down they became really pixelated and I couldn't find a way to fix it.
