long term project.

This is my long term project.
Strings of Lights

 For this project, I had no idea what to do. I started off just playing around with some images and using different blending modes to blend them together. I liked how they looked, so I added more images and one gradient. The final image I added was a lion face, because I needed a main focal point, so I thought that the lion face would fit for that. The meaning of this piece is put your self together and find who you are. I decided to call it Strings of Lights because when you grow and learn, you find good things and bad things, and you should try to string all the good things together and build yourself upon them and take the bad things and learn from them. This relates to the image because this piece is made up of a jungle – of life – with rain – the bad things – and a gradient – good things – with the lion in the front to represent strength and bravery.

City of Colour and Sound

I scanned in an image of buildings that I drew. I added an image of a cloud and put some filters into it to make it more blended looking. I also used a paintbrush that I made before this project and that gave some colour to the background. I used that same brush to clean up the bottom of the buildings. I made another paintbrush made of an image of music notes and gave it a really light opacity and added it to the image.
