The project was to make postcards using photoshop to cut out and paste ourselves into backgrounds and enjoy all kinds of fun experiments with them. I am a horrible photoshop user, for sure! I struggled with having enough patience. When it didn't work out, I was frustrated. I could see what I wanted to do, but I could not yet make it happen. It was awful! I had fun doing them and will keep practicing and experimenting with it...
Just catching a ride...I love the busyness of the place. The colors are wonderful, even though I couldn't get my own colors to fit in. The mood of the image is free-spirited and unworried. It makes me think of vacation. I like thinking about stealing a ride; that makes it more adventurous.
This one is a little abstract, but I think it's funny how the house is kind of on the side. It leans to the left. If it were darker, it would read like Tim Burton. At first, I made part of the grass patterned because I was trying to get rid of these little kids in the picture. After a while, though, I wondered if I could just keep stamping. I made the pattern after copying and pasting a lot. This was the only picture I could find of my sitting, and I DO sit in the grass like that, so it seemed to fit best. This makes me think of Europe. I have been to Spain, England, and Faroe Islands, and want to go back. This house seems old like England.
Here I am falling from the sky sounds like fun if there were some pillows or something to land on...
