Midterm

Artist Statement

My big idea is the Universe. I explored this big idea through nature, the planets, other beings, and phenomenons. A theme is exploring how all these things interconnect. I researched my big idea through Google Images and Flickr. I tried use anything that had movement to it as a way to to show the universe at work. I also plan to using blending and warping so the pictures seem like they are one. Showing how the universe is connected through everything. This is important because without the universe our world wouldn't exist and everything revolves around the universe.

  1. I like the way you blend every image together and make them seem like one.Especially in the first work you made the little "monster" blend with the others by adjusting opacity. And in the second work you adjust the background stars to make the green "ET"(MAYBE?) to stand out. Very good job!

  2. I really like the alien head that's floating in the sky with a very high opacity. It conveys to me that even if we can't see them clearly they could still be out there somewhere. I don't really understand what the alien is inside of in the second image though is it some sort of ship or is it being hatched?

  3. I think that the two images are very cohesive and are both very clearly dealing with the universe. I love the use of colors between the two images. I also like how the left is almost on Earth/ during the day, and the right is more of in space/ at night. Very creative ideas and great job using coloring techniques and blending images.
