GD I for Tuesday, October 16

Due at the beginning of class, a completed Illustrator file in 8.5" x 14" format:

1.) One black, white and grey (if need be) version of your word
2.) One color version of your word using only legal hillbilly colors.

Judiciously apply color, being sure there is an even balance across the entire word. There should not be too much repetition of one color in any one spot. Also, think about the VALUE of the color and use that to achieve variety throughout.

You may use ONLY TWO of the following colors + black:

Hillbilly color palette: all colors listed as CMYK (cyan, magenta, yellow and black) in this order

Shit brown: C54, M59, Y81, K26
Bile Green: C44, M7, Y100, K32
Odor Orange: C0, M70, Y100, K0
Bullshit Blue: C79, M16, Y10, K0
Numnuts Purple: C44, M66, Y0, K25
Neutral: C0, M14, Y24, K28
Redneck Red: C0, M90, Y90, K15

Also, design a cover for your book. The text needs to read: 

Fixin' to (title)
Expressions in the Southern Vernacular from the GD I class at West Geezie (subtitle)

When designing the cover, less is more.

BRING TO CLASS:
a minimum of 10 sheets of 13" x 19" Epson inkjet printing paper
xacto knife, new blades
metal ruler
white artist tape
glue stick
triangle
pencil, kneaded eraser
