Destroy The Icon: Some Different Iterations
After and while watching this week's lectures, I played around with my Marilyn image and created a couple copies.
For this first image I masked out the background to isolate Marilyn. Then I found an image of white doves, created a pattern from them and added them in front of and behind Marilyn. After that, I found an image of sky with clouds and added that as a background. I changed up the color from blue to pink.
For this image, I used a blending mode to emphasize Marilyn. Then I found two images, one of a galaxy and one of a starry sky and added them to the image, using masking to confine them to Marilyn.
It has been fun to play around with the settings of Photoshop without a lot of pressure!
Sylvia,
ReplyDeletethese are beautiful! I'm loving the version of Marilyn with the doves. The transition of dark to light pinks in the sky is lovely; it really adds a lot of depth. I think the doves pair so nicely with her flowy white dress. The use of organic white shapes is very cohesive and creates unity. Personally, I love pink, but I'm also curios about how it would look with a blue sky. The second image definitely rings galaxy vibes. I like that you kept the background to a minimum. This way, we're able to focus on Marilyn without it being too busy. The contrast of the black in her dress with the vibrant purples is captivating. You've done a really nice job and it looks like you're having a lot of fun with it!!
