Analogous

Artist Statement;

This is a photo I took of two mini presents I had laying on a white and gold tree skirt I had under my mini Christmas tree which I haven't taken down yet. I was looking around my room trying to find something to photograph for analogous when I saw all the little presents and realized that I had both green and blue, and yellow and green. Because the tree was green and the gold on the tree skirt was like a yellow I decided to use the two yellow and green presents. In this photo, I used selective focus to bring the attention to the presents. There is the tree branch in the foreground which is n0t in focus so it makes you look to try to find the focal point. The background is also not in focus which directs the focus to the center of the photo. I also believe that in a way there is framing because the way that the tree branch is shaped around the presents almost frames them.
