Blog Entry #2 Reviewing Part 3

I thought part three was the most difficult. This was difficult for me because it was harder to juxtapose all of the different shapes. Some of the shapes I had to make smaller so there was both and positive and negative space.

The first time I put all of the shapes together I had a hard time making everything fit. The second time I had an idea to make a picture out of all of the different cut outs. The idea of a tree came to mind. The tree shape in my picture would be the dominate shape. All of the "leaves" of the tree were sub-ordinate, and the cell phone in the sky was an accent.

By making a picture out of all the separate pictures I thought it would bring the viewer into my picture. The first thing you notice is the tree scene. Then, after you have seen the obvious, you look at all of the different pictures that make up the tree. I enjoyed looking at my own piece from both far away and close up.

The images in the picture all relate to things I like. For example, the trunk of the tree is a pair of jeans. The other objects that make up the body of the tree are makeup products I like to use, or perfume I wear. Also, the cell phone in the sky is my favorite because I love talking on the phone. I thought by placing the cell phone in the sky had two purposes. The first being that it represented a bird, and the second being that I like to talk alot and it stands out in my life. I think my picture was creative.
