Final

In my picture I used many different things to create it. There is a narrative purpose for this photo. By looking at this you can tell there is a story behind this photo. The story is the girl is all alone in the world and she has no one. She is feeling hurt, upset and unloved. I used 3 Elements of Art to help more develope the story. They are color, line, and value. Color, I chose a monochromatic color scheme, blue to show she is sad. I used red lines to show that she is hurting inside. I also used value on her, to make it seem like she is non-existent. Then I used 3 principles of art. They are movement, emphasis, and variety. I used movement on her and the red lines. She is walking away by herself beacuse no one cares for her. The lines look like they are striking because it shows her pain. Emphasis is on her because she is the main point of the picture. Variety, is the use of color to show hurt and that she is all alone.

Movement Msah-up

Cubism is a unique way of making a work of art seems more interesting. It is a process in which one creates abstract art full of what seems to be random angles and shapes. To create cubism I used many tools in Photoshop on the famous painting, Mona Lisa by Leonardo DaVinici. This painting was of the Renaissance time period. One main tool I used was the Marquee tool. This helps me were I can create squares/rectangles and then copy these shapes onto a new layer. After that I used the effect tool called Inner Glow. This helped me by making the shape have depth to create cubism. To farther make my final product I used pattern in a few of the shapes to create a more effective look of cubism. Finally, I used the free transform tool which helped my make the shapes seem as if they are floating or moved to a different position on the painting. By using these tools I created a work of art that was considered cubism. This was cubism because there was many, what seems to be, random shapes and angles that was designed into my abstract work of art. The once simple Mona Lisa is now an interesting piece of the finished product of cubism.
