Reflection:

This week I was focused on looking at everything I have, I made a few new edits and prints to be able to experiment some more. I laid out everything and started to get an idea of what the final collection could look like. I laid scans and my drawings on top of prints and worked on layering, rips and even cuts wanting to achieve the window look. I feel like the rips and tears worked the best giving the effect of the hand. I get words such as nostalgia and dreamy. The folds were also enjoyable, and I wanted to play with that more, though I feel like it gets lost in a way.

Reflection:

This week I had tried to explore more with the images and manipulate them. I had messed with inverting, flipping, layering, saturation, opacity and more. I really enjoyed this aspect of it and just getting lost in what I could do and what could change digitally. It was interesting to see them layered with my work as well. The group put things in front and we thought about ripping and possibly putting the scan or drawings behind in the rip acting as a window but in a different way. The majority of these were of trees and a little sunset, but I wanted to mess more with water images as well. I liked playing with grey-scale images, and seeing them intertwined with my love for color. For me it creates this reality versus memory aspect that I love. I also received words such as dreamlike, nostalgic, window, layer and more. It is time for me to lay everything out and figure out what direction I truly want to go with.
