Interpret: This image gives off a feeling of serenity and bliss, to me, because of the opacity and the dim colors. In the majority of the image, there are no true lines which helps to convey this feeling. It also gives an effect of being "level" because of how everything is distributed. Neither side is weighted more than the other and it feels as though your life is balanced and everything has it's time and place.
Evaluate: In parts of the image, there are rough edges that may need refined but I like them because it seems as if you're trying to say that people can sometimes be "rough around the edges" but it doesn't define them. In this case, we don't know what happened or why you chose to combine these images but this has made you into the person you are today even if you had gone through rough times. Also, I enjoy the color in this. It has been dimmed down so that nothing really seems as if it is supposed to stand out. Like everything fits together. However, on the flowers on the right, the color is brighter there (possibly because how it is overlapped with the sky). This looks to be hope. In an image where most of the colors are duller and darker, this one area stands out as if to stay, "Keep pushing, don't give up."
Question: Why didn't you drop down the opacity of the objects at the bottom?
When I view this piece, I sense mixed emotions. The feeling of remorse arises for me from the image of the gravestone, yet a sense of bliss is conveyed to me through the sunrise/sunset scenery that filters through. The warm colors towards the center of the image with the darker colors and tones at the edges draw my eyes towards the middle. I am curious as to how the name on this gravestone pertains to you and why you chose to include it in your work.It appears that you put forth great effort into maintaining detail and cleanliness in your work thus far. I am curious if you intentionally included the reflection of yourself. The reflections of the grass on the gravestone seems somewhat out of place, but overall your work seems well organized and composed.

Olivia:
ReplyDeleteThe opacity is dropped down on the bottom but because of the darkness of the trees and the darkness of the headstone it met for a dark bottom.
Justin:
the name on the headstone is my mothers name. The reflection of the grass is nothing I could really control on that day.
Thanks for the comments really appreciate them!!
