More of a pattern than a composition at this point. Andi suggested using masks to go through it and pick out interesting compositions that are hidden inside of it, then blowing up the masked area to full size. I'll do this with a few differently sized masks and see what I come up with.
The stronger composition. One comment suggested that it looked Soviet, which I agree with. I might make some small changes at the bottom of this one, but not too much else.
Probably the weakest of my three compositions, this one lacked any kind of focus, not really drawing the viewer to any point in any really meaningful way. The next step will be to unclutter the image and focus on two of the strongest elements, which are probably the bolt and the foil piece at the bottom.
For my final project in Parsons D&T bootcamp, I created a site called fattofatto.org that was designed to promote the sport of bocce in New York City. I have a real love for the game, so this was a fun project, especially making mini-documentaries by interviewing other players and building a game based bocce's basic skills. Fatto!
Another crack at the Tasks icon, this time following the guidelines for the Tango Icon theme, which is useful for designing icons in general, as well as for this instance in particular.
SVG and small icon are attached.
In his post via Planet Debian yesterday, Ross Burton put out a call for a logo to add to his Tasks project. Me being the free-software lovin' lad that I am, I thought I'd do up a comp and see if he likes it. Maybe so, maybe not, but it's always good for me to spend a little time working out new designs.
The SVG file (made with Inkscape) is attached below.
