Hockney- esque "Joiner"

-

The abstracted photo that you see before you is a picture I took of the vegetable garden in my backyard. There aren't many vegetables, but the flowers are really pretty! Anyways, this assignment was for me to create a "joiner" in the style of David Hockney's collages. I took parts of the original photo and made a collage with them that is just a little bit off: enough for it to look cool, but you can still tell what it is.

I used a picture of cracked dirt to add texture to my face, and then I used rust spots to look like gaping holes.

Repetition Used in a Creative Way

In this project, I had to find and image and use repetition to create a pleasing design. I started out with a simple image of a sunflower and its stem, and then I separately repeated the stem and the flower to make the sunflower into a cool, multi-layered flower with stems coming out of it from all sides. To finish it off, I repeated the sunflower around the sides to frame the center flower. This project was entertaining because it was really easy but allowed a lot of room for creativity.

I found the kitchen in the background as well as the person in the "Romance" folder for some reason, and then I found line art of lightbulbs and a vase of flowers from online to add to the kitchen. I painted the sunset scene outside the window and then added it in behind the kitchen layer.
