Words and Images

Artist Statement:

For this project, I used photoshop to overlay text and portraits and then added a filter to have a more intense hue/saturation. The first image is of my brother with the quote "so glad to be". I blew the quote up to cover the majority of the image and made my brother fade in in the bottom right corner. The second image is of me in the art room with a page from an art book over top of me. The text and the portrait have art in common. The portrait is overexposed yet the text still has a bold contrast but it doesn't take away from the photo. I feel like I could have chosen a better text to overlay with my brother but I still am happy with the final project.
