Artist Statement 1:
I decided to take a picture of the leaves because I thought the bright green would provide an excellent contrast against the black and white background. I raised the vibrancy, saturation, and contrast to make the colors more extreme. It was hard to find leaves in an area that wasn't colorful because all the flowers have started blooming. I thought that this as well as the symmetry project was very easy to edit on photoshop. Next time I think I'll take pictures of objects that have more red to them because red is a very vibrant color. It might stand out more then the green against the black and white background. Artist Statement 2:
The symmetry project was really fun to edit. I loved the ways the leaves looked when they were reflected back on each other. I took the majority of my pictures from the view looking up under the tree. The branches all looked tangles together and the leaves provided a beautiful contrast against the dark brown bark. The only struggle I came across was the lighting. Sometimes under the tree there wouldn't be enough light to see the details of the leaves. I was able to raise the brightness and contrast on photoshop to fix this problem. |
