In these 2 images I used color to give the feeling of the 2 words. The joy side of the image is full of color and the sorrow side is down in black and white. In the second image you can see the in the middle of the image it overlaps. Because I believe joy and sorrow go hand and hand. I enhanced the color of the second image with the curve tool and I used the liquefy tool all over the first image and on the dots on the sorrow sad in the second image. Then I used the tool on the first image to give it a look of steel.

Shena, you did a great job. You used a lot of the techniques that were taught in class. I like it a lot it is really cool. I like the way you pinched the background on the sorrow side. I loce how you added polka dots on the joy side. Awesome looking piece.
ReplyDeleteYou did do a great job on these. I love the symmetry in the composition and the way you've used texture and color. You have a very definite style developing. Good use of techniques too.
