Artist statement

Well I really had a great experienced this year learning a lot of interesting facts about Photoshop. What I feel most successful was that I improved a lot I didn’t know what aperture, macro ISO and all of those other little things meant but know by having this class it made me successfully learn about a lot of amazing things. The part that I struggled with was remembering what the proper names of the tools were. The good thing was that we used Photoshop a lot so all the tools I would remember them and by having Ms. Cook repeating everything that we go over.

The part that I could improve in the future was by fixing the edges in the pictures and by making the levels the right one. I actually liked everything that we did in this class it is really amazing how you could put people together and how to make a picture look real and how you could make the picture seem like if the ground is closed up from the front and then it goes away in the back like if it would have been a long far away place. I would use all my knowledge in the future I will get the program Photoshop and then I will show my husband how to use them so he could earn then use ISO in some of my pictures that I take.

The project that concerns me was the quilt squares they are the ones that tell you about my life it tells you what people think about me and how I am and who is in my life and it has been meaningful to me. I really had a grate time in this class that I learned a lot of things in this class and it will help me take better pictures in the future without having to just use the flash.

blow out and panning

panning

blow out

Well we created the blow out effect by making the person to run then follow the person then take the picture and everything comes out blurry and the person comes out clearly. The aperture you go outside in the sun and put the iso really high and then take the picture. The panning should looks really bright.Panning was difficult because we had to get the person cleat but the person you have yo get her or him clear. The panning should look really blurry from the back and the person should look like if it’s not moving

iso

iso5000

iso 800

iso400

iso 50

flash

Well ISO is really helps you to take good pictures in the dark and you could get the persons face clearly. The more ISO you put in it the more you light that you get in the picture. Well in the ISO 50 has less light so the picture is dark. Well I think ISO is better then flash because the flash focus more on the person but the ISO lets you see everything else. You have to be careful by not moving and so the picture could come out clearly.

flash

Some pros about this picture are that you could see the light really clearly and the con is that you can’t see the rest clearly. Flash is good when you only want to see one specific thing. Flash is not good because it doesn’t shows the amazing things that you see when theirs no light. I think this picture was better without flash because if their would of been light the dragon would of not been showing.

metering

A light meter helps you to get the color that you want if you want the computer to show the closest up to the computer then press half of the button then go back and take the picture. Or if you want the person co be showing too do the same process as the computer one. In the one that the computer is only showing your partner could be looking at you trying too being in the picture smiling and you won’t get them but in the other one you could see your partner she kind of like blue but you still see her. Spot metering could help me in the future if I want too take a picture in the dark.

Surrealism"Key to the freedom "

well in this picture the way that it feels is kind of weird it does fill like a surreal picture you will never see people in cages and fishes driving around i really liked it because it doesn't look dead it has bright colors it is not a boring peace of art it has some interesting things i know that it is a simple picture but it is still a nice art work. well in this world it is fish people the ones that rule the world and the people are the ones that are like their animals and they keep people in their cages so they wont go away. this was a really fun assignments and i really like doing it.

surreal practice tutorial

In the desert tutorial we made it realistic my moving the dirt so the dirt looks big in the front and really small in the back. Another one that we did is the pole we made a shadow and it looks like if the sun is going in. well this two photos are going to help me to create a surreal artwork because it gives us an idea how the work should be and ho make the things look realistic.

art show

My Life

This is one of my art works that I made and it is about my life. It is telling you about me and about my family. I created this telling about my past my present inside me and outside me. In this art work I had used a lot of my expressions. It was a great experience by making this work it was kind of hard but at the end it was one of my favorite projects that I had done this whole year.

senior portafolio show

well the thing that i would like to due different is putting more different colores and to do more work into.It was hard at first because im not a good person that gets cool designs at the first i have to see peoples first but then at the end it was kind of fun.its to know what your client wants and whats the main subject.

graduation

the strengh wat the cap that i had in the front cover. well i think i did better then the other one that i did because it was the second one thst i had made and i had more time to do it. I could of done better at putting more designs.

personal quilt

In this past month I was the one that got all my thoughts from my head just reflecting how I was from the inside and what beliefs I believe. I am really happy with what I did in all my 4 quilts because they all explain the truth. My favorite quilt is the one outside me because I think it was the one that came out better and that it was the one that is the best. If I would of done this again I would probably get more pictures and combine them more and probably make the enfaces more noticeable. The tool that I used a lot was the mask layer. I really like using the mask layer because it makes better the picture that you want it doesn’t leaves the corners straight they make them seem like if they are disappearing. I was being honest with all my quilt squares but it was a hard thing to do them but I had a lot of fun working on them.
