Somewhere


Artist Statement: For this project, I used a picture of my friend Nina from New Orleans, cut her out using the pen tool, and placed her body on a picture from a music festival I took last year. To make her appear like she is actually in the original photo, I toyed around with the vibrance tools, saturation, contrast, and saturation.

P5 Mesh

ARTIST STATEMENT: For my new gradient mesh project, I chose to recreate pink daisy's. Daisy's are my favorite flowers, and normally white I chose the color pink so when creating the mesh, it gives the flower a 3D look. making it look real. I created two types of petals, one having the rows and three columns while the other had 4 rows and three columns. I used the same colors on each point but scattered them differently among the two petals. I wanted to give variety to the flower so each petal didn't look identical to one another. There was no particular placement in which petal went where. I wanted them scattered to look more natural.

ARTIST STATEMENT: This assignment was something I was really looking forward to altering an image and make it look like a different dimension. The original photo is a selfie of my best friend an I at a music festival, we both have scarves and masks covering our face.

I then put a black and white optical illusion replacing the deleted images so it contrasts well off the colored image. The image itself I wanted to make more bright and bold so I toyed around with the vibrancy and saturation. As well as placing a photo filter of purple on the image to strengthen the colors of the pink and blues. I added text in an American Typewriter font that reads, "It's all in your HEAD." I chose to write a quote there so you can imagine that what you're seeing is all in your head. ...

POEM

Artist Statement: For this project I wanted to use my favorite poem, and that's from the film, The !0 Things I Hate About You. The main female lead, Morgan, read this poem to Heather Ledger's character. I felt that his face and emotion would be the perfect picture for this project  POEM:   I hate the way you talk to me And the way you cut your hair I hate the way you drive my car I hate it when you stare I hate your big dumb combat boots And the way you read my mind I hate you so much, that it makes me sick And even makes me rhyme I hate the way you're always right I hate it when you lie I hate it when you make me laugh Even worse when you make me cry I hate it when you not around And the fact that you didn't call But mostly I hate the way I don't hate you Not even close Not even a little bit Not even at all
