Creative Final

Symmetrical Patters





I really enjoyed working with symmetrical patterns. I liked how the different effects make the pattern look different, and the photograph is given a different sense of depth. At the district arts festival, I was able to sell the green symmetrical pattern piece. I think that symmetrical pattern pieces are more likely to sell, because there is not a certain subject, but are able to convey a certain mood and sense of depth. They are just interesting to look at and very colorful. 


Vertical Stripes


I like how the vertical stripe effect changes the dynamic of the piece. It gives it a sense of brokenness, but is still able to convey the expression on the person's face. This effect would be good for statement pieces and portraiture. 

Hand Color


I was not able to work much with hand coloring, but I like how it is able to recolor the color of feeling that has been lost. This image also shows how hand coloring can enhance a picture, and give it a new feeling and theme.

Creative Studio Work


Image overlays with text

Five hundred twenty five thousand six hundred minutes
Five hundred twenty five thousand moments, oh dear
Five hundred twenty five thousand six hundred minutes
How do you measure, measure a year?
In daylights, in sunsets
In midnights, in cups of coffee
In inches, in miles, in laughter, in strife
In five hundred twenty five thousand six hundred minutes
How do you measure, a year in the life?
How about love?
How about love?
How about love?
Measure in love
Seasons of love (love)
Seasons of love (love)
Five hundred twenty five thousand six hundred minutes
Five hundred twenty five thousand journeys to plan
Five hundred twenty five thousand six hundred minutes
How do you measure the life of a woman or a man?
In truths that she learned
Or in times that he cried
In bridges he burned or the way that she died
It's time now, to sing out
Though the story never ends
Let's celebrate

Remember a year in the life of friends
Remember the love
(Oh, you got to, you got to remember the love)
Remember the love
(You know that love is a gift from up above)
Remember the love
(Share love, give love, spread love)
Measure in love
(Measure, measure your life in love)
Seasons of love
Seasons of love
(Measure your life, measure your life in love)

I plan to take pictures of everyday things that make hearts, or things listed in the song. The message is regarding the substance of a life, and how it is measured not in length but love. The pictures will visually show the objects, but also give them meaning beyond their surface value.
