Weekend Project









Blacks is a color that symbolizes power. It also creates the sense of evil of timeless. In this case, i think that black is showing power. Because the black shadow is a of a live person and, they defiantly have power over someone who is dead. They may have even created their death, alluding to the evil side.












Green is the most popular decorating color because its calming and relaxing. It also show renal, or refreshing. I think in this picture that the green is calming and relaxing. It seems like its in a small forest, where its very quiet and you soon find yourself releasing all your tension just by locking at the photo.











Red is emotionally intense. Red is the color of love and anger, which when your in love sometime you can get very angry. It simulates the heart to beat faster, and increases your heavy breathing. Red is also known to simulate your hunger. Red grabs your attention and makes your mouth water, weather its with desire, anger, or hunger, that's up to. This photo, the red really shows the sweetness and draws you in to grab one to eat, since its so bright.









Solid, reliable brown is the color of earth and is abundant in nature. Light brown implies genuineness while dark brown is similar to wood or leather. Brown can also be sad and wistful. In this photo The brown under the feet, shows that the person is steady and reliable, has her feet on the ground and give you the sense that you can trust them.







Blue is the most popular color of all time. calming, peaceful, tranquil. It also can be sad, cold, and depressing. Rooms with this color get a lot of work done in them. This photo really creates a peaceful mind set. It reminds you of the sound of the waves hitting the rocks, the soft breeze, and light blue sky, all together it slows you mind down and lets you breathe. It also creates a sad feeling because it reminds me i wont be going on vacation for a long time, which in my mind is very sad!





Purple the sign wealth, royalty, romantic, sophistication, luxury. Purple can appear artificial. This photo is a great example of that, a rose plus the purple, is very romantic, but the flowers also somehow appears not to be real.




Yellow is the attention getter, overpower happy, frustrating color. It makes you concentrate and focus on that color, but it can also cause a lot of anger and frustration. This picture the yellow grabs you eyes and never lets go. You cant help but to just concentrate on that flower.


White, the color of innocence and purity. Reflects the light and is bright and clean. Goes with everything. This little girl in the light shows that she is so young and has no idea about the world. Her mind is simple and pure, untainted, and bright.

Attractive/Replusive
































On the mirror it says, "I HATE YOU". Her checks are the same color as the lipstick on the mirror. The blue reflects her deep sadness. The white dress symbolizes her young innocence and purity. It makes you turn away in disgust and sadness, but yet at the same time, you cant help but stare at it.












This one is so fun to look at with all the bright colors your eyes go everywhere and don't know where to settle. That was my point exactly. The picture was of a house burning down and was drawn like a three year old did it. Then i burnt the edges and wrote mom, to give it an actually creepy air to it. The crayons bring your eyes to the center, and the scribble lines make your eyes move everywhere as if you were in that fire. Makes you wonder what was going on in the little kids head, doesn't it??

Whats Important to Me

There are a lot of things that are important to me, my friends, pets, home. I also took a picture of my converse shoe label, a picture of a London phone booth in a magazine, coffee mug, stereo, chef hat, and a notebook. These things show my hopes and dreams, what makes me happy, what comforts me, and what I'm good at. Though they are only objects in a material world, they are objects that are very important to me. My friends i could not live without, they are my family. My pets are also important, i love them to death, and they always make me smile. I love coffee and converse shoes, no matter what day i have, i take a sip of coffee or put on my converse i instantly feel better. I love to write, i do it all the time, pretty much on anything so i took a pic of my notebook. My stereo, symbolizes my love for music, i am always singing and dancing. I don't know where i would be with out music. I took a picture of the London phone booth from a magi zine, because if i could live anywhere it would be London, that is one of my biggest dreams. I placed them on the picture of me in my bed because, your bed comforts you and is the key place where you dream.


This one, means a lot to me, because my dad is my hero. Being a chef, he really doesn't have a lot of time to spend with us, so the one place to connect to him is the kitchen. I use to spend all my summer in his kitchen, working and learning. We became really close, he even gave me his very first chef hat! I love him so much that i had to make sure he was included.

My Moribed Self (stockphotos)


I know that this picture is rather depressing, but i was going along with the theme of newspapers. It started with the idea that a drowning happened, and was going to overlap it with a newspaper clipping. Instead i wondered if anyone was wondering about who the hand belonged to..so i added a more personal touch. With the newspaper heading at the bottom..it created a great photo

My Next Attempt....


The heat blazing, the screams for air, the desperation is about to kill the one last chance of a saving breathe. Firemen, are sometimes forgotten, but as i was looking for picture i read a story on google about a family that was saved from the grim reaper, by one brave fireman. He entered a house that was ready to collapse. So i dedicate this to that brave fighter.

Playing with Photoshop!


I call this London Letters. I ,myself, have always wanted to go to London. The saying there is anything is possible. With that in mind i wanted to convey a message that indeed something happened. I used the postcard shows that the letter was getting sent home, for unknown reasons. The worried girl in this photo is placed there to symbolized trouble. When your little and get in trouble, you got it, put in the corner. Together it makes an interesting photo that makes you wonder, what happened in London?




I made this with the idea of a perfect romance in my mind. Like any romance, I instantly thought of Paris, the city of love. With the sweet glowing heart and cool angled picture of the Effle Tower, I knew they went perfect together. So I hope you LOVE (pun intended) my photo.
