Glass & Transparency

Artist Statement

The subject of this image is a glass with string lights. The setting is in a livng room and the glass is in front of the fireplace. This image was made with a glass and string lights. I put the lights in the cup, and placed them around the cup. I decided to use dark light and the light from the fireplace to make the image more cozy. I chose to create this image because I liked how this image was set up. I edited this image to selective color, then darkened the light as well as added tint. Selective focus is in this image; The cup is in the foreground, as well as one of the lights on the string. The rest is blurred. Throughout the image, low-ley lighting is the main My project evolved by first, not knowing what to photograph, and how to create it. This image was one of the better images out of the bunch I took. This image was my backup in case if I didn't like any of the others, which happened. There is no specific meaning, I just thought it was the strongest image out of the images I took. This image relates to my life because many people say I am transparent; I say how things are, nothing is sugar-coated. Nothing bothers me about this image, I think it is pretty strong.
