Photoshop: OBX Trip


  
Outer Banks
This project was an extreme challenge for me as an artist. When painting this is the first time I had ever used the computer to create a piece of art work and using a computer in general for me is taking me out of my comfort zone. I try to avoid technology as frequently as possible and I also don't have any real social media such as, face book, snap chat, instagram and so on. this project was difficult from start to finish and i took me about to class periods just to figure out how to get the background photo to pop up and disappear while creating this bizarre piece of art. In the end it took me what was supposed to be four class periods about two to create this since I have lack of knowledge with a computer in general. In the end I pretty much concurred making art on the computer and no matter what it came out to look like I am content with the outcome and challenged myself.

Lito Mayo

Lito Mayo was a Filipino  artist since the 1970's. I love the creativity in this painting,  Self-Portrait of Lio Mayo made in 1981. He was not known as a Dada artist but they considered his work to be apart of the Dada movement. He was offically known as a  Filipino graphic artist, print-maker, avantegarde poet, social activist, sculptor, satirist, and art professor. He spent a lot of time in museums working on art pieces before moving into his offical career as an artist.

Frida Kahlo: Roots, 1943

Image
"Roots" 1943 Created By: Frida Kahlo Written By: Madison Herley The painting "Roots" created by Frida Kahlo in 1943 represents the artist herself. I choose the painting "Roots"  because it was an unique style of a portrait. For example, usually portraits are a close up of someones face. However, in Frida's painting it is a wide shot of herself on some type of land with roots coming out of her torso. Some researchers believe Frida was inspired to create this painting because she alway had a dream of being able to give birth since she was a childless woman. In addition, other researchers have predicted that Frida is mimicking the Catholic religion with a Christ sacrifice by having her blood flowing to the vines. Furthermore, this sacrifice has been connected to some of Fridas other work as well. I did like this photo the best because she used a lot of warm tones to create the painting. The color of her dress and the vine branches stood...
