I can't wait to see your digitalized version of these. I think that there is a lot of things that could go along with a blender that would mix well, like a helicopter. I think that this a great image very clean and lots of values of greys to work with.
Hey Catherine! There are a lot of ways you can go in developing this appliance into something interesting. Maybe something with flowers or nature would be cool, where it is spilling out of the top? The gradient tool will be fun to work with with this piece!
This is the outline of the blender; I am regretting not compartmentalizing the different sections into layers so that I can fill colors and add gradients as needed. Will be asking advice from the class on what to do!
After adjusting the blender/background, I decided there was too much empty space in the top section of the background, so I added clouds. I started with my original "shades of grey" clouds layer, and then pulled sections of clouds from that original image (copied into a different layer) to add in the layers above the blender. I adjusted the opacity varying from 30%-50% to give it a "cloudy" transparency, and then added the steam from the "boiling water" (shades of grey) image. I adjusted the opacity of the steam to 50%, removed some of the darker shapes from the base and adjusted any additional dark colors to be lighter to make my object appear more cohesive. After making the images seen above, I chose to pull the steam straight up into the sky (touching the top of the artboard.)
Starting off I really like the idea of using a bridge to portray the passage of time/sequence. I think this would be visually and creatively interesting, additionally, people sometimes use bridges metaphorically as a link between differing dimensions, or perhaps the afterlife. I believe there is a lot of creative potential! Here are some example images.
