Objectives
- Take photos that could be made into a sticker and sold to people your age(avoiding logos and words.)
- Create an image that combines photos using Photoshop.
Research
I like how these flowers are symmetrical and that they are in the center of the picture. I also like how these flowers have bright colors that are good for stickers.
My 20 New Photos
I took these pictures at my house from a bouquet. I originally had more than 20 photos for this project but I accidentally deleted a few of them. I took a lot of these from on top of the bouquet and the lighting was from the side. I think that a flower would be good for a sticker and I love the look of roses especially.
My Four Edited Photos
Printed and Matted Photo
Critique
Observe:
- The colors in the eye are different shades of pink
- The center of the flower lines up with the center of the eye
- The eye is clear but the eyelashes aren't as clear
- There are different layers of the flower inside the eye
- Some of the petals on the flower are yellow
- The eye is off center
- There is a different texture in the center of the eye that there is on the inner part of the eye
- The blonde hair takes up 1/4 of the picture
- The coloring of the flower fits in perfectly with the eye shape
- The textures and colors of the petals are different in some places
Describe:
I noticed that the colors in the flower are different shades of pink, some of them even yellow. The textures of the petals are also different in some places, including the front petals and the back petals. There are different layers of the flower too, making the eye look more 3D or texturized. I also noticed that the center of the eye and the center of the flower are lined up. However, there is a texture in the middle of the eye from the pedals that is different from the middle of the inner eye. The coloring of the flower fits in well with the eye shape, making it look more real. I also noticed that the eyeball itself if very clear but the eyelashes are more blurred. The whole eye is off center, leaving some of her blonde hair in the left part of the picture.

Analyze:
One Element of Design is that the color helps correspond with the Principle of Design's emphasis. With the bright pink color, the viewer will probably see the flower/eye first, emphasizing that the eye is the main subject in the photo. Another Element of Design is the lines in the picture that relate well with the Principle of Design's repetition. The petals in the eye are circular lines, and that movement of lines are repeated over and over. Another Element of Design is the shape of the eye that helps the Principle of Design's balance in the picture. With the eye on the right and the blonde hair on the left of the picture, the balance between the two if pretty even.

Interpretation:
For this piece, my interpretation of it is that there is always beauty where ever you look, no matter how dark a place may be. It also shows that everyone is beautiful, inside and out. The flower is part of her eye and that represents how much beauty there is in the world, no matter the bad.

Evaluate:
I think that this picture is really cool and I feel like it meets all the criteria for this project. I combined two photos, the picture of the eye and the picture of the flower. The edges of the flower in the eye could have been more neat, but overall I like the look of it. I love taking close-up pictures and both of these are close up pictures. I think that it's really a mature and intense picture.
