Calligrame







Calligrame (Ricardo Sepulveda)



    In my calligram, I sought to explore the profound connection between art, meditation, and peace. This piece is a personal journey through the landscape of my own consciousness, a visual representation of the tranquility that I have discovered within, and I want to keep discovering in the future. The forms and patterns I have created invite the viewer to contemplate the different expressions of peace and tranquility, including the work "patience" which is the key to stay at my highest level. To create my work, I started using the Pen tool for the human figure, and the other birds. I used shapes such as circles, ovals, and rectangles. I used the Paintbrush tool to draw the owl. The tools that I used to write the sentences from my letter were Type, Type on Path, and the Area Type. I used an oval to use the Area Type tool for the word "Patience", which also has the inner glow effect on. 
    I have not only created a work of art but a portal to inner peace. It is a testament to the power of creativity as a form of meditation, a vehicle for self-discovery, and a source of profound serenity. This piece encapsulates my personal artistic journey towards inner harmony. I also did this with the purpose of inviting others to find their own path to tranquility through the creation and appreciation of art. I believe that in today's society everything is about the external world, but nobody is looking inside, which is what have the most impact on our daily experiences.

Business cards

  Artist Statement In the creation of these business cards, I sought to encapsulate the essence of mindfulness through diverse visual expressions. The varying colors carefully positioned logos, and subtle design effects collectively invite a sense of serene harmony. The strategic use of light colors is intentional, reflecting the tranquility associated with mindfulness. Each card, with its unique artistry and placement, serves as a gentle reminder to embrace a moment of calm and peace. The chosen fonts, coupled with effects like basic feather, outer glow, drop shadow, and bevel and emboss, contribute to an overall aesthetic that encourages mindful reflection. Together, these business cards are an exploration of visual tranquility, inviting individuals to connect with the present and find solace in the art of mindfulness.

BW to Color

Imagen
  In this Photoshop work, I have explored the emotional power of color by creating three distinct versions, each carefully selected to evoke a profound sense of calm and inner peace, inspired by the feelings I experience when I am on the field. From soothing light blues and tranquil greens to the gentle embrace of pinks and purples, these color palettes reflect the serenity I find while immersed in the soccer field. With each color's unique tone, I have aimed to transport the viewer into a tranquil state, allowing them to share in the peace and harmony that nature's colors bring me.
